broomy replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This Japan trip looks like the best trip tpr have organised. Was it as good as it looks for those who went? Tokyo Disney resort looks the dog's balearic's. Thanks very much for the intensive reports you bring to us jealous folk who can't afford to go. -

I love how quick you are getting these fantastic trip reports up. Making me that little less jealous. Japan looks like a fantastic country to visit with some lovely looking theme parks -

Cruising with Theme Park Review - Feb 2011
broomy replied to robbalvey's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
All included. There is no charge at all. You can book a private session for the Flowrider, which is what we did last night, which is $60 per person, and it limits the group to 8 people. We only have 4 people last night and plenty of time on the Flowrider (our session ended up being about 90 minutes) The rest of the time I've been going during the normal public sessions, and I still got in a TON of Flowrider time. But yeah, those two attractions, the rock climbing wall, the carousel.... all included. No additional cost. --Robb Thanks very much. When you think about it and take into account all the things you get for nothing it really does seem like great value for money. -

Wow this ship looks amazing. Thanks very much for the trip report although it makes me extremely jealous. I know you've answered loads of questions regarding upcharges but I have a couple more burning, (more calories than the fella with the flat tyre) are the classes, included? Also what are the prices like for the zip wire and flow rider? Cheers. -

You were lucky with 2 actors on thirteen. Wasn't any to be seen on sunday and the park was rammed. -
Photo TR: Rheinkirmes Düsseldorf another funfair in Germany
broomy replied to Ledgy's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Superb looking travel fair that. Went to dusseldorf last year and visited both phantasialand and movie park. It's a beautiful city and well worth a visit. Will have to visit again when this funfair is there. -
Can't say i've ever noticed that date marker by the alice's wonderland ride before. Really don't know why rollercoaster isn't running if it is capable. I just presume the old woodies at bpb take a lot of maitenance and preparations in the mornings. Big dipper opened late last sunday due to something not working right and it broke down on the lift hill at least 2 times. Maybe it's worth e-mailing bpb and asking if there would be a chance of getting rollercoaster working for the uk tour.

Oh I forgot to mention, a word of warning, do not go and see the puppet show at planet rock as you will never get the 20 minutes back. Big dipper stuck on the lift hill. Avalanche kept getting stuck at the brake run. Bpb does still have a mini log flume. Who has the best glasses New dodgems under the revelotion

Went to blackpool last sunday, had a cracking day as the park was very quiet and the weather was pretty good. As other trip reports have shown, there is no big addition to bpb this year. Just fountains, rockery and a new smaller dodgems. Sadly rollercoaster, gold mine & space invaders are still closed. As reported trauma towers & noah's ark are closed too. They are using the entrance to trauma towers as a photo sales booth, there is a guy dressed as the joker trying to scare people as a picture is taken & you can buy the pictures. Everything else seemed to be working altho not perfectly. Throughout the day I seen big dipper, avalanche & bling breaking down. I really hope with blackpool football club getting into the top premier league, blackpool as a whole will get a big boost. A new woodie at bpb would be great. 3 coasters, 3 styles, 3 decades Fountains all seemed to be working More of a queen than a king Sadly just about the best themeing you'll get in bpb How this guy can laugh all day without wetting his pants is anybodys guess Doesn't look as bad as mine Gone but not forgotten Polo anyone? That's impossible I thought batman defeated the joker Beautiful blackpool pleasure beach The calm before the storm of pain Alice?? Who the F**k is alice These aren't just any old loos I must smell, mr purple mad hatter seems to be leaning away from me Someone tickle him under his arm please Ahhh spitting dragons how wonderful Lift hill alert Poor old rollercoaster Zooom, I do miss rollercoaster the rollercoaster Hardly bling written in silver, now gold is bling. Eye see
