The Tunnel of Love
There's a path paved in heart-shaped stepping stones stuck into the grass. On either side of this path are small garden lanterns fitted with charming blue bell flames on the inside. A little further down, you hear the sound of water sloshing against sturdy surfaces, indicating that you're nearing a body of water.
Should you follow this path, you'll find yourself joining a short line.
For what, you might ask?
The well-lit sign hovering over the already ridiculously bright attraction makes it clear that you've arrived at the "Tunnel of Love". Whether accident, curiosity or a desire for a romantic evening, why not join the line and see what lies inside?
Once you near the front of the line, you will see the small stream that has been created for this very purpose. Every five minutes, a swan-shaped boat appears from the darkness. It releases its passengers before joining the queue to pick up the next pair of star-crossed lovers...or whatever you're telling yourselves you are. Regardless of your status, each boat seats four, two in the front row and two in the back. There will be no squeezing for a third friend who can't bear to be left alone.
Once you depart the bright platform, the night descends into darkness, but only for a moment as you enter the cavern.
Illusions spring to life accompanied by top romantic songs of the year now gone. Cruise down the shimmering stream to the sounds of "Ain't We Got Fun?" by Billy Jones and the Original Dominoes, "Do You Ever Think of Me?" by Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra and "O-H-I-O (O My! O!)" by Al Jolson. We're not accepting suggestions; don't ask.
As you drift further and further along, cherubs descend, pointing their arrows in your direction. The arrows swoosh by, taking with them the lingering scent of roses. Dotted lights dance about, occasionally arranging themselves into shapes. Hearts. Roses. Boxes of chocolates and cute little cherubs. All around you, a garden springs to life, sprouting flowers in shades of red, pink and white until they've completely surrounded you on either side.
The moon appears inside the tunnel, much larger than it would appear outside. It's tinted in pale pink, its glow bathing all those present in light.
Before you know it, the tunnel begins to open up again, and you can see the exit. If you've enjoyed yourself, get back in line for another go!
