Another Look At Yokosuka's Godzilla Slide

Back in February, I paid a cold, snowy and windy visit to the Godzilla slide in Yokosuka's Kurihama Flower World.

At the time, the park tram wasn't operating and I had to take a moderately steep trail (although paved) to get to the Godzilla slide.

Rocket News 24's Casey Baseel had better luck on his visit. The weather was warmer, clearer and the tram was operating (although he missed it).

He has a nice write-up on his visit to the Godzilla slide. He confirms what I suspected about a sign at the base of Godzilla's pedestal. It is a list of contributors who donated "to the cause of bringing Godzilla back."

Above, the article confirms that this is the list of contributors to the new slide. Photo by Armand Vaquer.

The article also includes a photo of the original Godzilla slide at Tatarahama beach. It is a photo that's been floating around the Internet, but larger.
