Are you in a weekend frame-of-mind? I’m guilty. So far I’ve watched videos of Marine World-Africa USA when it was in Redwood City, and now this one of the Giant Dipper at the Boardwalk.
The wonderful thing about this roller coaster, besides being a great coaster, is the memories it evokes from childhood to the present day. Remember when you were so excited that you were finally big enough to ride the Dipper? Bye, bye baby rides! (Although I still love throwing the rings through the clown’s mouth on the merry-go-round.)
So, take a break--you’ve earned it!
