Bulgy the Whale is a fun ride for kids. They get to sit in little whales and as the ride moves around in a circle, the whales go up and down. I guess it's suppose to be jumping whales or something, but as much as these whales jump, you would think they would have used a dolphin theme to the ride.
It doesn't matter though. Whether Lagoon uses dolphins or whales, kids just love the ride. I would equate it to more of a relaxing type of ride. Something that little kids will find amusing and older kids will find utterly boring. (It's true. Just watch the ride for about fifteen minutes. If you haven't found a kid who looks bored while on the ride, than you are a better person than I)
Bulgy the Whale got a new home in 2004 when Lagoon added the Kontiki and the Dragon Fly to it's list of rides. Those two rides moved in and gave an eviction notice to poor Bulgy. But never fear, the ride was able to find a good home next to the Big Shoe.
