Alright ... so Chapter 2 has started off WAAAAAY more interesting than Chapter 1 already. We've only just begin the first few steps but there is already a lot more color and some play value. Including an ice cream stand. As a rather large fan of food, this was quite exciting to me (don't judge).
The first few steps involved putting some finishing touches on the base to make it look like a professional theme park attraction - hand rails on the inclined walkways, "concrete" pillars and barriers to direct traffic to the attraction's entrance, etc.
Then there came the operator's booth, a park bench for visitors to sit and relax and an ice cream stand! Because no theme park attraction is complete without an ice cream stand. We couldn't help ourselves - we had to start posing the minifigs.
We've got our ice cream stand. Looks like the ice-cream-lady is doing some swift business. She's got a big spender waving a fat $100 bill around. Either she really likes ice cream and is planning on buying it for 20 people or this theme park charges even more exorbitant prices than Disneyland!
Someone's already gotten their ice cream and is enjoying it on the park bench. And the girl with the huge-ass lollipop has a massive grin on her face. I guess I would be pretty happy too if I had a lollipop that's bigger than my head.
And here is our ride operator - at this point, just familiarizing himself with the controls and how things work since there is no ferris wheel to run yet. He looks like he is having fun.
And a few more shots from various angles:
The next step is to start building the support structure for the ferris wheel itself. My mom is super excited to start on this!!
