Friday on Liseberg

At noon on a cloudy Friday we gathered at Korsvägen, the tram and bus stop nexus closest to Liseberg. A couple of minutes' walk late we were inside the amusement park. People bought their ride-passes and I waited with their bags as we went from ride to ride.
Halfway through our visit it started raining heavily but that didn't dampen the good mood much.
We finished the day with an outright awful meal, grabbed a few more rides and left for a pub. A few beers later we called it a day.

Unfortunately my compact camera really isn't suited for shooting the high speed rides, and I have almost no pictures from then, ad none worth displaying here.

Some photos below:

I got to ride one attraction which is just a rotating platform on a high rise tower. So here is the amusement park as seen from above.



The open space is Korsvägen.



Josh, Matt and Keiko waiting to be winshed up for a long free fall drop.



This is basically a big swing looking like a ship of some kind.



And this is a bigger swing looking like a, well, big scary swing.



Bea met up with us after a while, bringing Simone from daycare.



Bumper cars. Gines is planning for a rough ride.



And a different kind of cars.



Wet, wet, wet.



Simone got to take part of the fun as well.
