I'm not going to write a whole long Trip Report, so I'll just post pictures with captions explaining things. But here's the deal. Every year, the Staten Island Mall has a carnival, and this year we had a new Fair circut, so we went to go check it out. Dreamland Amusements, the emphasis of suck!
PeopleMe
Anthony, my twin brother
Cassie, his GF
Walter
Jackie
Kenny
Andrew
TJ
Kenny, Andrew, and TJ joined us when we were going to leave originally, so we stayed later. And then chilled after the fair
PhotosI don't have a camera, so these are all video stills
Here we are at Dreamland! I've waited my whole life to be here
Anthony said this will be better than Tokyo DisneySea. It just seems so amazing!
Uppon entering, Anthony and Cassie seemed very excited
Wow! This really is better than Tokyo DisneySea
This was the first Ring Of Fire any of us have ever been on. This one was called, "Fire Ball"
They even had a Herschell Mite Mouse
Which we'll come back to!
This is Dream Catcher. You have to be dreaming to ride it! El Oh El, get it? LyKe ZoMfG!!11!
I just love to eat at the Sizzler
It took two guys to get Walter and Jackie off
Cassie and I getting on
Okay, so this Zipper was the most painfull, and scariest Zipper I've ever been on. I'm convinced that it hasn't been inspected since 1967
They will never be the same again!
Jackie seemed very nervous about the "Land Side"
As did Walter
The view from the top. This slide was scary as hell!
It also hurt my butt
This Fun House had no spinning barrel, LAME!
The slide at the end did give Walter a little problem!
Yay! The Mouse was testing, so we should run right on!
Oh! What's this? Oh, just Anthony stuck on the block brake. Which is totally my fault. I got stuck on one of he brakes and they couldn't move my car, so they stopped the ride, and then they had to push my car back to the station, and then re-start the ride.
Now the same thing happened to Anthony
Oops...looks like Cassie is still going through the course
Wait...never mind. She's stuck now
Of course she's a great sport about it all!
Starship 2000 is next
Walter shows off how it sucks his belly in!
They even had a House of Glass that the carnie wouldn't let me film in
We got to credit whore on the Orient Express as well
So, here's Jackie an I on the Mite Mouse. When we got on it, the ride lost it's brakes. I kid you not, there was an air faliure, and there were no brakes. They had to catch our car as it was leaving the station and hold it. About 15-20 minutes late, they decided to just let us go
brakeless!
"Owe owe owe owe"
Flying into the brakes....that did nothing!
Isn't the girl in the middle from Full House or something!?!?
Okay...so Orbiter was AWESOME!
Jackie and I on Orbiter
"Cold! Cold! Cold! Cold!"
Anthony was all alone on Orbiter becuse no one loves him
Seriously, it was friggin awesome!
Antony got Cassie to ride...but she was to ashamed to be seen next to him
Ah yea, back to the Fire Ball.
The worlds largest Land Fill, seen upside down!
Jackie doesn't seem too comfortable
Though I loved it!
Um...why is this person running from me?
Oh, it's just TJ
Ghetto wheel which you could NEVER get me on!
I love fairs at night. They look so much better than they really are!
I just love this shot I got of Anthony and Cassie in front of the Fire Ball
Untill Kenny stepped in front of the camera!
I had to wrestle Andrew to get him in the shot!
The whole group. Me, Andew, Kenny, TJ, Jackie, Walter, Cassie and Anthony
