Hey guys I visited the show on the Thursday and Friday, the show was great much better atmosphere then Gympie’s and Maryborough’s shows put together for sure.
Crowds were low on the first day by what I was told and it also was low on the last day due to being a normal weekday with school and people working, but the Thursday (Pubic Holiday) was very busy, huge crowds, most rides were doing great runs. Rain ruined the last few hours of the show on the 3rd day but other than that it was great weather.

There were 2 other rides but they decided not to set up ride, Tornado and a Fun Factory I think were still racked on the trailer.

Now I don’t know if you know this but can you tell me is there 2 Ali Baba’s traveling around these days because there were 2 at the Bundaberg Show this year, the original one and the new one, who owns the new one, does anyone know????? I have a photo of this ride on my photo bucket page under Bundaberg Show 2014….

Due to having to work during the show on the 2nd and 3rd days I didn’t take many photos and stuff but you get the picture what I'm saying here, I was offered a job to help out March Amusements Jumping castle and Jumbo Slide during the show and also help pulled down the Slide, Jumping castle and Whizzer. First time ever doing this and loved it, great job, if I had more time I would of stayed on helping them at other shows but couldn’t since I was on holidays and made other plans but I hope in the future I get to do that again.. Anyway all and all the show was great, will try to visit it next year.

I don’t think there are enough photos to show you this time but the ride list tells you what was at the show and you would have seen the photos of these rides before, I will upload the ones I got on my photo bucket page, and hopefully I’ll get a lot more photos at Rockhampton Show and ill be attending the Yeppoon Show this year so ill have some photos of this show as well.

Pretty sure that other Ali Baba is owned by someone in the Davis family... not a bad line-up there

I believe the Ali Baba in the photo belongs to Justin Gill.

No, that's the old one that usually does the north, the one im preferring to is this one.

The new one has much better artwork on the back and improved LED's on the arm, they all change colour the LED's and it looks much better than the old one.
To compare it to the old one, it does really the same cycle times, other than the LED's and artwork backdrop its still the same ride but still it has a better feel to the older one..

The photo isn't really good due to being at night but if I see it again ill take one in the day to show you...?
