Ride On_17 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I recently saw a thread like this over at PB and searched on here and didn't see anything like it. I think it could be a fun way to stay entertained during the long, cold winter while snow covers our favorite rides. You know it's the off season when... ...you "walk" through amusement parks using Google Streetview pretending you're at the park, and you stop by the rides, restaurants, and shops in the order that you would as if you were actually there. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
