Aerial Antics: Dreamworld
The time has come for me to take Sabrina's suggestion to heart and make my ever present obsession with Live Local and Google's aerial photography a regular feature here on NewsPlusNotes.
And with that we'll call it Aerial Antics because I also enjoy alliteration. I'll try to publish one weekly and you can find them under the new Aerial Antics tag.

Dreamworld is located on the Gold Coast of Australia. I remember it obtaining most of it's notoriety by building the Tower of Terror back in 1997. The ToT is a clone of Superman at Six Flags Magic Mountain.
But also in the above photo is the park's latest coaster: Mick Doohan's Motocoaster. Opened in 2007, the launched motorcycle seating style ride was built by Intamin. We can see that the ride's layout is pretty much a double figure eight.
Also you can see how the water park slides wrap around the theme park's Cyclone roller coaster. The ride was relocated from Luna Park where it was called the Big Dipper.
Here's a link to Google's images.

Thanks for this great post. I just thought I would point out one main difference between the Wiggle's World in Dreamworld and the various versions in the Six Flags Parks. Dreamworld's Big Red Car Ride is actually a dark ride through the Wiggles House.
Thanks again for this great blog!
Really? I had no idea! That's very interesting, I'm going to have to look that one up on youtube!
Yah it is a journey through the Wiggle's House where there are four rooms I believe. If I remember right you stop briefly in each room and do a sing along with the Wiggles.
