Any photos of the park from years gone by?
We'd like to see 'em!

Here's my images of Peter Pans. Not many I know, but I was a useless photographer and Peter Pans wasn't the place to take a camera! 
(I've left these full size, so let me know if you'd like the images made smaller or anything)

Hey, welcome to the forum! 
Thanks for the pics, very nice.. Good to see that I'm not the only person who goes snooping around the park with a camera (if there was a shifty eyes smiley it'd go here, heh)..
No problem at all with the size of the pics, they all load at a reasonable speed even on my li'l old 56k, so they'll be fine.

OK, I took them down a notch to fit 1024 x 768 screen resolution, which isn't quite fair on the hundreds of visitors you'll get with an 800 x 600 resolution!

This nice site HERE has some lovely photos from January 2004, including Sk8Boarda construction, the Ramba Zamba ride area post-Pirat Galleon but pre-Ramba Zamba, the Raging River lake drained, and a load more. Worth a look.
And HERE are some older pics -January 2003 - pre-Mini Mega, or "The Mighty Twizzler Bendz"...
Also, more recent pics HERE from the same site, showing different views of the park, plus Dragon's Claw operating with 4 arms during maintenance.

Some more old photos... These ones are from April 2004.
In One Spin's Adventure Island gallery...
There's pics of the Tidal Wave tower casing being constructed, some good shots of Ramba Zamba before it had a footrail installed, Sk8Borda in operation pre-skater-figure, The park gallows by the Choo Choo Train where the Ents Stage is now, as well as some good shots of other rides around the park.
