Page 14 of 24: Will I Survive a Second Park in a Row?

Futuroscope

The next morning after cleaning our mobile-home we drove to Futuroscope. For me it was too much, two parks in a row. But husband and son enjoyed tremendously this park as well. I have to say, I enjoyed very much the park setting, with lots of shady areas, fountains. To me however, it is too expensive because I am not the type to pay a fortune to get shaked in all directions. Other than that there are IMAX and Omnimax which I visited already in North America, and also a night show, but we were too exhausted for that one.

Some attractions there had long lineups for a few minutes of fun. We all went to the 20 minutes show with animated seats. The first part was just some advertisement and then we arrived into the torture room. The show started with airplane views then continued with cars racing with all moves of course exaggerated for fun and even some water on us. After 2-3 minutes those responsible stopped it because a few people including some kids wanted to get off.

When I was really scared I just closed my eyes. But it is easy to feel nauseous there.

However there are a lot of just regular pleasant kid’s attractions. Our son enjoyed water bikes on big wheels. Then driving small car respecting the road signs, then floating in a boat and trying to reach a target, which then starts a fountain and everyone gets wet. We had our picnic in a shady area.

The last attraction was the dance with robots, after the 4D adventure. Those responsible showed people how the robot moves and how you move with it, and many people especially with small kids decided not to go for it. Our son wanted to go, but we couldn’t leave him alone.

It was a big pain to get him out of this park.
