Water Slide Fun!

Hartenbos is a favorite holiday destination for many people & families - especially over the December holidays. My family has gone there for years -- the best thing to do was always the supertube ride....piles of elastics round our arms marking how many turns we had left to slide down with the swirling water.

They have built a huge fun park which has replaced the old supertube which was right near the beach... Here we have the most fabulous selection of water slides:

1: a very shallow slope
2: a wavy slope (little steeper)
3: a steppy slope (little steeper again)
4: a pretty steep scary slope (so steep!)
5: a vertical drop (just downright terrifying!!)

Here's a closer look at the vertical one.
