No visit to Springfield would be complete without having a go on the Simpsons Ride.

The 3D simulator ride takes you on a ride with the Simpsons family at Krustyland on a derailed coaster.

It is filled with gags such as the appearance of the "Happy Little Elves in Panda Land" attraction that featured in the tv show and is a parody of Disney's It's A Small World.

In the Orlando version there's even a video in the queue showing Doc Brown from Back to the Future selling his Institute of Future Technology to Professor Frink, a nod to the closed Back to the Future attraction that was replaced by The Simpsons.

The Simpsons Ride is excellent and as much fun for adults as it is for kids.
