We planned for a short tour in this semester. It’s our second tour officially from the college. It may not be a tour actually but can be called as a holiday trip in some sense.
As we planned, we started earlier in the morning from Kavali, our home town. We picked up our friends on the way and headed to Chennai. After a short journey( I actually think we haven’t noticed the time enjoying the journey) we reached Chennai.
Our driver stopped the vehicle at this sign board. I thought the same just like you are thinking now by looking at the photo beside. “What is the need to stop here, why can’t we just ‘go slow’” is the question I guess your minds are filled up with. If so, you are mistaken just like I did. Later I came to know that is the border of Chennai and there had a check post at which we have to take permission for vehicles from other states to roam in the city.
After going a distance on the constructing roads we reached ‘Queensland’, the amusement park.
It could not caught my attention that we are in the city as it did before ten years back when I visited Chennai.
The photo you are seeing is the shot taken at its entrance. I thought it won’t be much delightful entering in to it, but I was wrong.
This was a old horse cart placed at the entrance of the ‘Queensland’ attracting people coming in.
The photo on the left is ‘the free fall tower’, the most thrilling experience you will get that you won’t be forgetting the feel of falling freely from a height of 150ft.
This is the ‘cable car’ from which we can see the whole queens land from a top moving angle. I just loved taking freaky photographs from that heights.
The above are the some of the photographs that I have taken from the ‘cable car’. The bottom right one is the ‘roller coaster’. It was my first roller coaster ride. I really enjoyed it than any other.
An old car stood interesting for the visitors. No one just can’t pass away from it by not taking a snap.
A short guy entertaining the visitors can be seen in the photograph on the right.
