Jungle Jim has a plan for the
monorail besides acting as a billboard for his store. In the center
of this picture is going to be one of the two stations. Yes they
need two stations because Jungle Jim's is that huge. You could
easily spend hours shopping here. Not only is there groceries
from around the world but Jungle Jims has a fish hatchery, restaurant,
cooking school and pretty much every kind of food found under the sun.
For all of you baseball fans
Jungle Jim's even has seats from the old Riverfront Stadium for sale.
Unfortunately Jungle Jims does not allow photography in his store otherwise
there's be ten more pages of pictures because it's just that cool.
Heck he even has a bunch of old bumper cars that he has transformed
into a rack full of candy. Jungle Jim has taken to theming everything
and even has a bunch of animatronics around the store from the old Lesourdsville
Lake Park.
The exit from Jungle Jim's
takes you through this elaborately themed fountain where a family of
ducks have made home.
Going to a grocery store may
not seem like the best stop off on a trip to an amusement park but trust
me it fits right in. In all reality Jungle Jim's is an amusement
park for anyone who likes food. Carrie and I are already planning
on bringing the cooler next time we head to Cincinnati so we can raid
Jungle Jim's seafood market.
