Finally reaching the ornamental gates, I bypassed the ticket offices and headed straight under a gate declaring the start of 'Mainstreet'. All the regular amenities were present in bright and cheerful housing. I liked the way all the buildings had their own theme and character, yet the flow of architecture was maintained. Having had a look around the various shops, I was reminded that time was short and headed towards the abstract-looking intersection ahead.

Faced with the choice between three differently themed areas, I headed for the quite scary-looking 'Canadian Forest'. Dark trees, murky landscape and harsh rock faces were the order of the day, and the traditional architecture looked faintly sinister nestled into the mountainside. I took a left and found myself gazing up at a beautifully sculpted waterfall, standing tall in the centre of a plaza. This was just one example of the nice landscaping found in the area. I walked deeper into the forest, but found myself in a bit of a dead end. No worry, as I retraced my steps back to the station for 'Daze', a multi-drop log flume. Taking the back seat in a log, I was swept out into the water flow and underground, emerging at the top of quite a steep mountain. A short drop led into a few meanders, giving ample views of the surroundings, including the rickety structure of the area's dueling mine train coaster, 'Whisperer'. A couple of lifts led to more drops, including a long, stomach-churning plunge underground. The ride was enjoyable without being too intense, and was perfectly placed to show off the theming invisible from the paths below. In order to dry off after the ride, I took a quick ride on Whisperer - a ride fast enough to give you a thrill but not intense enough to scare.
