I have never been on one of these butterfly rides and that didn't change with this visit.
In this photo update, we share our experiences from a true bucket list park visit. It is hard to describe Futuroscope, located just outside of Poitiers, France. It's some strange mix of Epcot's Future World, Universal's screen ride prowess and Toronto's Ontario Place. The park is jam packed with world class theater based attractions and futuristic art installations. And yes, it is almost all completely presented in the French language. Some highlights included the Intamin special effects coaster Objectif Mars and the Dynamic Attractions spinning motion theater Chasseurs de Tornades.
Futuroscope is without a doubt a top tier theme park. The best way to explain is to show you in pictures, so away we go!

I had previously thought this was a LEGOLAND exclusive ride.

This is a big park. There is an incredible amount of major attractions, but also lots of nicely landscaped and architected pathways.

The paths go above, below and all around.

The show buildings are works of art on their own.

While we ended up seeing a lot during this visit, we did not see it all. I don't think it is even possible in one day.
