For those wondering where the Ferris Wheel was relocated to it's over by the Flying Dragon.



The Flying Dragon is one of Beech Bend's two coasters.  From a few chats with park employees a new coaster is in the park's near future because they feel that they've built up the park with a lot of rides but now they've reached a point where the park needs a signature attraction to bring in the guests and grow.  Personally I'm thrilled because they want to add some serious wood to their line up and are thinking maybe 2005 will be the year for it.



Yes it's "Starship: The Ride" where you hear "We Built This City" again and again until you pay everything that you have to get off of it.  Just kidding.



Actually the Starship 3000 is a big spinning ride that let's centrifugal force make you feel a bit of weightlessness here on planet Earth.
