Let me just start off by saying that this was the sketchiest place i have ever been to. Our professor, Rob, thought it would be fun to go to the egyptian "disney world" because they stole the "D" from Disney on their website...that's how ghetto this amusement park was. He also thought it would be an interesting place to photograph..which it was, i have to admit. I of course was scared to go because I assumed the rides would just fall to pieces and we would all fall to our deaths while on the ferris wheel. Obviously I have survived, but I did not survive the sketchiness that is "Dream Park."
I was so amused by this place that i bought a 15 LE hat, (3 american dollars) because it was the only one they had in one of their deserted gift shops, which made me laugh to myself, and eventually purchase it. The hat must be 20 years old, all the guys on the trip were telling me i looked "special," while wearing it. I did.
The whole park is pretty much a scam, you have to buy a ticket (about 20 LE's) and then once you get in you have to pay for all the fun rides (rollercoaster, bumper cars), so i was unenthused by that aspect of it. The only free ride we could find was "bumper boats" which were hovercrafts you could steer in the water..... let me just say that the water smelled like dead people to the point i was looking for a body to submerge from below. Matt and Doug found a dead frog floating in the water and threw it at Kelly and I and that's when we decided our Dream Park adventures must come to an end.
OH, and I did end up paying for the roller coaster, it was fun, surprisingly!
