Sign reads "closed for storm." Uh, yeah. Like two years ago. |
 |
Here's another entrance, also blocked off. You can see the rides in the background. |
 |
Or maybe you can see them better now? Geez. |
 |
Wide shot from a levee. There was a bunch of water between us and the park, pretty much the opposite of that first Vacation movie. |
 |
Roller coaster. Ooo. Ooo. Ooo. |
 |
This was as close as we got to going in. It wasn't clear if anyone was actively guarding the place. We already skirted a set of barricades in the car just to get this close. |
 |
A mask on the fencepost. You can also see at left in the pic above. It's been there a while. The plants had grown through the eyes. I'd like to see it in its full glory in the spring. |
 |
Another panoramic shot from another levee. Look at all these rides you'd never trust your life on without them being completely rebuilt from non-hurricane distressed materials. |
 |
I don't know if New Orleans really needs a roller coaster that goes over the water. We've got the Causeway, and you can do that at obscene speeds if you know how to avoid the cops. |
