Tales of the Twin Terras

two giant screen TVs

Good news and bad news from Benidorm's two giant theme parks. First the good news, if you like football that is, from Terra Mitica. There will be two giant screen TVs installed in the Egypt area of the park so that devotees of the game won't miss a single minute of World Cup action. What a shame that Egypt, as usual, won't be participating in the competition.

Over at Terra Natura things took a turn for the worse when one of the keepers in the elephant enclosure was badly injured by a female elephant while feeding her. Despite the aggression being completely uncharacteristic, the park's directors have taken the precaution of cancelling the performances projected for the summer season featuring these giant animals.

Nevertheless there's almost a million and one other things apart from football and elephants to do at both marvellous family entertainment complexes.
