As the season
opens now is the best time to get construction shots of the Dung
heap from the Riverbank Eye Spy.
The Springy
Cob-Web Climbing Zone is now up.
A closer look at the new climbing
frame.
Beyond you can see a play area, which
looks to be aimed at younger kids...
...complete
with a small slide and balance beams.
In front of the climbing frame is the
new zipwire.
The Silken Zip Wire runs almost the
entire length of the Playground
By the enterance of
the Dung Heap the structure seen in earlier shots has now begun to
be themed
It looks to be a giant ant hill, no
doubt this will be Soil Albug Hall.

As the season has now begun the
park is advertising their new play area.
As the piles of
earth start to subside the old animal houses start to emerge once
again.
And at the same
time the cow poops out the lower end of a zip wire.
The central climbing frame looks to be
completed, but there seems to be two smaller framers which aren't
finished.
As you can see fencing
has started to go up now to separate off the different areas.
Lots of work still to
be done around the site...
... will it be ready
for the 28th? It seriously doesn't look like it.
Work has forged on
with the Royal Albug Hall, it just needs painting now.
To finish we have a
shot of the flies on the roof of Royal Albug Hall, silhouetted in
the singing sun!

The sun rises over the
Dung Heap on the rides opening day, but is it finished?
Well yes and
no. The attraction is certainly open to the public, but is not yet
completed.
Rather disappointingly, inside the 'Soil Albug
Hall' there is no sign of the 'Bug Chorus' or the 'trash can
symphony', only and interactive bug mat. (Which at this early
stage isn't so interactive)
The Mushroom Maze is looking more akin
to the queue line the an attraction in it's own right.
And the central
viewing plaza is clearly unfinished, with the old Adventureland
benches in situ, not really fitting in with anything around them.
That having been said,
the play equipment itself is all in place and open to the public,
such as the climbing frame seen here in Cobweb Capers.
