Lost Island

 

Welcome to Lost Island Themepark in Waterloo, Iowa

The residents of Lost Island were putting on a show about the lore of the park in the front entrance area

Heading left first we entered the Mura section of the park

The award-winning dark ride Volkanu calls this section home

A trackless dark ride in the middle of nowhere Iowa.  Yes this is real

Rokava is next door.  Just a very bizarre ride

The newest addition to the park is Fire Runner, a RMC Raptor

They went hard with the theming in the queue line

This was a perfect addition to the park.  The station looks great

Love how it swooped over the station and close to the roof decoration

 
Other rides in this section include Shaman's Curse - a disko coaster

Mura Fury - a Zamperla Discovery Evolution

Next was the Yuta section which is headlined by Matugani

This hydraulic launched Intamin looper is a lot of fun

This dig site is called Pengali Ruin

Yuta Falls is a large log flume style ride with two lifts and drops

Kukui Station is the park's bumper cars

Moving into the Awa section, we see the Nika's Gift Carousel has finally arrived

Alzanu's Eye is the park's ferris wheel

Views from the Eye - here's Matugani

Fire Runner

Nopuko

Huge crowd today (unfortunately the park was really dead)

Zulawa Wave

Eeki Eeki Escape

That concludes our day at Lost Island
Until next time
