31st March - 17th April 2007 |
No chocolate volcano for this, the second Chocolate Towers event, but the giant inflatable eggs return.
|
|
The chocolate TV also reappears, through which you can see the tent for the acrobatic bunny show.
|
|
Eggbert, the friendly Easter egg.
|
|
After each performance in the tent, the acrobatic bunnies come outside and help teach the kids how to be rabbits.

|

|
|
This was quite popular with the children, and each one got a free Creme Egg for having a go.

Inside the tent, before the acrobatic bunnies performance. Each bench had Cadbury's Heroes on them for guests to nibble.

The stage, complete with "golden egg" at the top.

|
|
The Army Major bunny explains the story to guests. The show's plot centered around the Evil Bunny's plan to ruin Easter by stealing the golden egg (and all of the chocolate).
|
|
One of the bunnies protects the egg.
|
|
The bunnies make sure they're fit and ready by doing some exercise.
|
|
Of course, being acrobatic bunnies, this entails lots of backflips and precarious balancing acts!
|
|
The Major narrates the story.
|
|
BMX Bunny shows off his skills.
|
|
The Evil Bunny makes an appearance.
|
|
More daring acrobatics.
|
|
The bunnies pile up.

|
|
The bunnies do a caterpillar-style walk.
|
|
Mayhem ensues as the Evil Bunny tries to steal the golden egg.
|
|
Over at the hotels, some of last year's theming makes a reappearance.
|
|
You wouldn't want to try biting into these, though...
|
|
Another giant egg adorns the entrance to the Alton Towers Hotel.
|
|
A closer look at the Chocolate Towers logo.
|
|
Inside, this is the entrance to a special Easter maze called "The Rabbit Warren". It's the same area that was used successfully for last year's Halloween maze "Room 13".
|
|
Over at Splash Landings Hotel, the Chocolate Gunge Tank reappears for its second year, in Ma Garrita's bar.
|
|
Also in Splash Landings is a bed made entirely from chocolate, kept in a sealed box with a fan to keep it cool. One lucky guest will win the whole bed!
