Park Visit

Featured Replies

Thanks to a WONDERful person currently working at the park, I will be taking a guided tour of the park on Wednesday, December 1st, before the park admin personnel closes out in mid december. Unfortunately, no photography is permitted inside the park, so I cannot deliver any photos, however I will be posting after my visit (if possible), on how the park is preparing for the bulldozers. Theres a world i'd like to live in....

Cool although the theming and everything has been taken down so there wont be that much to see

Take a camera phone with you (one that records videos). Pretend that you're on the phone but really you are taking a video of the park. Then get a USB cable and watch on your pc then post it in. Or if you don't have a camera fone, have my 7610 or my K700i. I suggest the K700i because it has continuos video recording.

Yeah, like just have your ear facing the direction of what you want to take a picture of, and just shoot, but then again they might take your mobiles off you or ask for them to be off.

He can just say that his mum will call him every 30mins. He can just set his alarm to go off every half an hour then pretend to answer it but really he turns tha alarm off and activates the camera!

I had the opportunity to walk through the park back in early November and have attached some photos.

Attached are some more pictures, I have not ever attached pictures before so I am learning as I go along.

That really shows how they DID maintain the park. Only a couple of months after the closing, and they have weeds growing through pavment. How did you get access to the park after closure? Plus, how did they let you take pictures? Or do they let you take pictures, but for personal use?

I made an appointment in response to the advertisement in the Trading Post. There has been an ad running for a while now selling everything. You had to submit a price and they come back to you letting you know if your offer was successful. I purchase some memorabilia and advised them that I intended to take photos to show my wife what I had purchased. I had not been to the park since 1997 and was surprised at how it had become neglected. As I said in a previous post, all the water had been removed from the SRR, the ponds and lake around Bounty's. Many people were on site removing items that they had purchased such as pavers, fencing and building materials. I was more suprised to see rides such as Tassie Devil dismantled and sitting out in the weather to deteriorate.

The park wan't looking that bad on my last visit. As i said before, it shows how much they did maintain the park over the years.

Paul, In response to your question concerning access from the front carpark, I have a friend who works next door at the M7 (freeway) and he tells me the gate to the carpark remains open.

Sweet. I might just see (if i go that is) if i can get some high quality pictures from the crest of the car park overlooking the whole park

I've seen a lot of nasty s**t in my life, but that pool is one nasty s**t!

Question, What the hell is that thing that looks like BB train, on picture 384? The one with the tin building?

It was the size of Reptar at Dreamworld from the pictures i have seen. Reptar could do with a second train
