DINOSAURS ROAR TO LIFE IN WORLD'S LARGEST ANIMATRONIC

DINOSAUR PARK AT KINGS ISLAND

Dinosaurs Alive! at Kings Island features more than 60 life-sized dinosaurs in a 12.5 acre Jurassic forest setting, including 56 animatronic models.

Highlights of Dinosaurs Alive! include the vicious-looking Irritator and its cousins the Baryonyx and the Spinosaurus, the lizard-like Stegosaurus, the meat-eating Tyrannosaurus Rex, the three-horned Triceratops and the flying Pteranodon.

Four of the dinosaurs have interactive consoles which allow guests to guide dinosaur movement so they can see how scientists believe each dinosaur moved its arms, tail, mouth and eyes.  There is also an excavation site replica, a kids’ paleontological dig site where visitors can uncover prehistoric fossils, and a 1,500 square-foot dinosaur-themed gift shop.

This is a wonderful buttercream cake of the Louisville Skyline produced by Adrienne and Co. for the 2010 US Scale Masters Championships.  The party was held at the Knights of Columbus Hall in New Albany Indiana.

Adrienne and Company participated in a fundraiser sponsored by the U of L basketball team for the Family and Children's Place of Louisville.  We dontated a cool U of L themed cake worth over $250 to the charity.  The cake had all of the current players names, championship banners, and various Cardinal images.

Adrienne, Booney, and Gigi got to meet some players, sit in Rick Pitino's chair courtside, and take some pictures with Cardinal Legend Denny Crum.

Here are some pics form the event:

Adrienne went down to FOX 41's studio this morning to meet with Geoff Manthorn from the famous "Ace of Cake" TV show on the Food Network.  Geoff was in town to make a cake for U of L last night and decided to make an apperance on FOX the Morning for Cake Week.  Since we just appeared on Cake Week Wednesday, we got the tip that Jeff would be there.

Check out the Charm City Cakes web site for a sample of Geoff's work.
