This place was pretty cool - California's only sea-side amusement park. http://www.beachboardwalk.com/
I got a free daily pass for any ride from another resident who purchased a season ticket. So I got free all day rides. Ooo Yeah. The first one we went on was the 80 year old giant dipper ride. I recommend watching it at http://www.beachboardwalk.com/03_giant_dipper_ride.html. It started with a huge vertical plunge through a pitch black tunnel and proceeded to slap G's on you like crazy. The first plunge isn't shown on the video however.
Thank god it only went for about 5 minutes. Later on I realised that it was the best thing there. I almost wish I had gone again.
The ride cost about $3.60 (if you were paying). The photos you could purchase of yourself at the end taken mid-scream raped my wallet for 12 bucks.
