TPR Spain Trip 07 - Photo TR
Canobie Fan replied to Canobie Fan's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Probably a dumb question but what is a 'down swing'? When the ride gets to the top and starts swinging back down..You face down at the ground. All 3 times I rode it whenever it did the few "full swings" I always ended up being on the "up side" (facing the sky) so I never got to look down. -

Part 11 - Erlebnispark Tripsdrill Wooo And one last photo from on the big flume...... :-\ Part 12 later tonight. Birdz Ben seems happy on the cool trackless car ride. We got denied the kiddie flume. Dont know what it says... But I like the duck. Uhh..... In Europe its "ok" to stand on raft rides... Mushroom swings! Uh...? Nothing to see here... Best looking tivoli ever. Rasender Tausendfüßler... lmao.. Its the "shoot eggs out of the chicken" game! There was also some random movie being filmed at the park. I bet im the only one of the trippers who found this model Weee Someone dispatched my car before I could pull my lapbar down! Im so cool because I sat on G'sengte Sau lifthill!!1!

Part 10 - Wild- und Freizeitpark Klotten/Cochem Bear feeding, boat jumping, and a little airtime machine Boat Jump POV - Bear feeding POV - Weeeee Part 11 coming soon. Great view eh? Heiße Fart...I mean Fahrt OK! This photo was to show off how most of the parks we saw people walking dogs and such.. But I didnt notice the girl on the right at the time I took the photo! Deer.. I think Standard ACE family photo. Owl photo for Eric. Oh.. and here is where I spent most of my time at the park! Bear = pimp. The waterslide was one of just 3 rides in the park with a worker on it. Deathy spinning thing. Trampolines! Random tower ride with no fence around it.. You just walk up to it as its moving and get on. yay safe. Best looping ride in the park! Luna-loop (of death!) Oh god.... Air time? Boat jumping goodness. So before the add on starts Ed fell asleep on the airport floor.. and is then poked with soda bottles. -
The reason this fails is.. Most staff will tell you to sit up straight up and back if they see you slouch down or sitting forward in the seat.

Part 9 - Parque Warner Madrid.. Or... This was a Six Flags?! I dont know how I feel about Parque Warner... I really wanted to ride Stunt Fall and Superman... And I loved both. But im really not sold on the rest of the park. It had rides and good themed areas... But it felt like it was missing something. I dont know... Anyways... photos. Oh.. and this is the parks own subway station. lmao... EWW Melrose! Nothing to see here... Lamest stunt show EVER!.. It didnt even have fire.. just the "sound" of fireballs Scooby Doo dark ride.. Just like KDs.. But trackless Weeee......splash. Riddlers Revenge... a 300 foot S&S tower Vekoma madhouse!... Not as cool as HEX but still better than most. Topspin goodness Batman la Fuga isnt as good as LeVampire But its sexy as hell. And because it was still 900*s out.. We used our "SuperStar" passes on the water rides It really wasnt that bad... Its just not good. COASTER EXXXPRESS! Tom Why Jerry? Im 2 for 4... And seen 3 Holy crap! Its working! Loop! Helix! Moose is all "Look at me.. Im on Superman" And because I havent posted a photo of Rich yet... Here you go. -

Part 8 - Terra Mítica - The Ex-Para park. Terra Mítica (and Isla) has what I call "IOA syndrome"... The park is all theme but no ride. Oh.. and I did the logride. woo Part 9 soon. This is the raft ride I did do. The park had 2 raft rides.. But I only rode one.. And not this one.. And you dont really care anyways. I love the bull train! The bull themed power coaster that seemed like most people couldnt find.. (I found it ) One of a kind Zamp mine train. Alucinakis! Condor you are not... How many Tizona workers are needed to watch Robb tape a cam down? Wooo SLC!! lol. Not done yet... And it didnt look like we missed much anyways. It looks so nice... It just doesnt do anything. Once again Robb holds up ERT PENIS! Raptorboy says hey My first Mondial frisbee... Too bad all 3 times I rode it I never got a 'down swing' They had this big model of the hotel.. And I found my room lol.. It had a potty phone! The pimpass hotel! -

Mediterranean Sea credit! Don shows what hes made of... The porn shop... I took a few photos inside before they yelled at me.. lolz And now for non park photos.. Woo.. An odd poster for an area waterpark. Kiddie TechnoJump lol. ET is emo. Mm..... Hippo! Uh... Zamp froghopper thing. boooootleg falling star thing. "Did you just take a photo of my ass?"

Part 6 - Tibidabo Yeah.. So I guess most people on the trip didnt have a clue on how messed up Tibidabo was going to be.. I knew thy had some odd looking stuff.. But I never knew how BIG the place was! Everything was just stacked up on the hillside.. Tibby is a really cool park The coolest thing in the park had to be the "Bucket of DEATH" ride.. that for some reason I rode twice. Me and JamminJ ran on it as soon as we got to the park... Most people were still getting park tickets handed to them. And we were standing in a bucket 50,000 feet over the park and 20 miles over the city of Barcelona trying to not crap my pants. And after getting lost for a bit.. We then took this fancy train.. And then a taxi to get back to PortAventura... Woo. Oh and we had to look at this cat. I know that place! Then this subway... And then this trolley..... Because me and JamminJ wanted to stay at the park longer and also go into the city... We had to get all the way back to PortAventura on our own.. Some 60 miles away. So we took this incline railway thing... Blahblahblah... The topspin was the 'lowest' ride in the park. And not run that well. The parks like.. 90 year old monorail... Its just a portable skycoaster wannabe.. And from what I heard I was one of only a few trippers to ride it... Someday ill upload the POV Fabbri Airdiver! The plane ride wasnt as deathy as it could have been.. But it was still fun. I dont know what this was for.. But it made me happy. Uh... This was in the gift shop. Woo... Tibidabo Express... And if only I had a photo of what happened right next to me after I took this photo.... Long story short - This kid standing right next to me in line for the coaster started to go PEE right in the line..... The worst part is when it stops..... Bucket of death!!! Sexy... kinda? Questionable photo #2 Montaña Rusa's odd trains Montaña Rusa as seen from the bucket of death ride. -

Part 5! - PortAventura PortAventura is the reason I came on this trip... I had wanted Dragon Khan since I first learned about it way back in the 90s when it first opened... The first 8 looper.. And to this day the most looping B&M. OH! And it didnt hurt that a few years ago the park also had Hurakan Condor... a 300 foot intamin drop tower with standup-floorless-tilting cars Oh.. And they also had this cool night show I saw all 3 nights. Part 6 in a few hours. Temple del Fuego was pimp. I think we did it all 4 days. Oh yeah... And this! :D Thank god this sexy beast makes up for Baco failing at life. Honestly.... Back seat..Front seat..Inside seat... Outside seat.. IT DOESNT MATTER! Baco is the worst steel coaster I have ever been on. Bacos only 'good' part.. The roll.. Too bad the rest of the ride sucks sooo much the roll doesnt make up for the sucky-ness. You couldnt hand slap on the ride.. But you could try! Dear people who bitch about G-Trains.... Try a KumbaK one Questionable photo #1.... Tomahawk... One of the forgotten CCIs Uh... Moving on. Yeah hi. Its sooooo good. For some reason PA has like 900 bunnies under and around Dragon Khan. They were cool. I did all 3 ride styles.. But try'd to get the standup side most of my rides (they dont let you pick) And then we get to my Condor.... That I rode over 30 times in the 4 days we were at the park. So we bail on that and go to Tami-Tami. Well.. The first ride we run to in the park is Baco... We get in line only to have it go down when we were in the station. But at least we got exit passes... JamminJ + wind = FAIL The hotel we stayed at had the worlds easiest maze.. Not only were the walls only like 1 foot tall... But you could just walk straight and be out the other side. -

Part 4 - Parque de Atracciones de Zaragoza Zaragoza seemed to be a park on the trip that most people didnt know anything about.. Guess they didnt do any 'park research' that a loser like me does.... Zaragoza was also odd in the fact it had A LOT of the same kind of rides Canobie has had over the years... It kinda felt like I was in a time warp for a bit or something. They had a Galaxi, Mirror maze, Telecombat, and other odd rides that Canobie has had... Kinda made the place cooler for me. Weeee...... Part 5... later And the logride. Well as the meal was running real late I bailed out and grabbed a few more rides before the night was over... Like on the topspin Well as the parks PR lady was sitting right across from me.. She asked why I didnt want the food until she got what "vegetarian" was... And she then had the cooks make me a pizza! So Zaragoza puts on this big fancy meal.. Full of seafood... If you read part 2 of my TR you would have read im a vegetarian.. So no food for me.. Ghetto.. Yet safe wheel. MAZE-OF-DOOM! Telecombat!!!!! (Hey Canobie!) Mina.. Kiddie credit.. Wooo Ben wouldnt drink from it... Its called malaria river for a reason.... The malaria river ride.. With the tunnel of doom! Hey Robb... Can we get ERT on this next time? They had this fun raft ride.. Where we watch a kid almost die. Ramses! The supersized Butterfly coaster Odd colors.. But an ok ride. Moncayo! My first non-American Galaxi! Wooo.. Zaragoza! -

Part 3 - Parque de Atracciones de Madrid I went into Parque de Atracciones de Madrid thinking I would hate the place.. Everything I had seen from it just made it look like a park I wouldnt have fun at.. Yet when I got to it.. I found myself liking it a lot. Oh.. and they had this fun odd "industrial themed" huss Frisbee Part 4 later.... Hippo!! After getting all the credits.. I took some time out and got a slide credit. "#3!" And rides worse than any SLC...... It looks so bad.... Oh god...... That random ""tree"" thing.. That you couldnt get up. Suspended minimouse!! Coolest kiddie suspended ever! Almost the best credit of the trip! But wait!.. What?! Its good!! Oh god... X-Car round 2. I HATED G-Force so much last year (yet I rode it 3 times...) so I wasnt looking forward to Abismo.... In memory of 7 Picos. Its tall.. And fast... But it still falls short of the amazing-ness that is Dragons Fury. First credit in the park for me is Tarantula... I have a thing for Maurer spinners... Oh and Don points at Ben for some reason. Deka and Don have some fun before ERT starts.... And JamminJ just kinda chills... -

Part 2 - Woo... So because we missed the first day at Parque de Atracciones.. The first park on the trip for me was Isla Mágica. Oh.. And SPACEJAM dolls.... Part 3 coming soon! Well after getting back into Madrid I went looking for food... And found this. Oh yeah.. And they wanna add this vekoma mine train! (How many of you trippers missed this? ) Uh.. I kinda found this odd.. For some reason the park has part of the Berlin Wall. 2 - Wave Swinger (and they didnt have #3 being a Swinging Ship) The Swinger at isla looked sexy.. But sadly the water jets dont get you wet. If you know me.. Or JamminJ you would know we cant pass up 3 rides that most every park has.. And Isla had 2 of the 3 1 - Tea Cups And seeing how it was only 9,000*'s out... We rode the logride. Yay.. My first Maurer tower... Too bad it was in view mode.. And not drop mode (The first time I rode it) Well... it didnt work that way.. So the lady at check out took all my food away and gave me this food (with meat in it..and im a vegetarian)... What makes it bad is both me and JamminJ ate/drank from the food/drinks we had removed from our plates.. AND.... We watched the workers put them back for other park guests to eat and drink! Ok.. and now its time to make everyone sick. We got a "$9.50" meal ticket thing.. So I just put food on my plate that I wanted to eat.. And kept it under "9.50"... My 4th Disko.. And 2nd "Mega" one.. ANd I still hate them Its got a helix! Its got the same layout as a wackyworm... But...... After Jaguar I went and looked for the parks kiddie coaster... Tren de Potosí Sexy... Isnt it? But heres the reason why I was so happy to be here! WOO!!! SLC!.. And this one didnt make my ear bleed Uh yeah.. So this thing was called like "ElCubeo" and had like 5 things in it..IMAX, 2 different sim rides, a shooting dark ride.. And more. After many many hours We get to the park.. Woooo! Woo.. So we got to take the sexy high speed train down to Seville. -
And because mines better. Yeah so after doing last years UK trip and add-on... I did this years Spain trip. And also the add-on.. Only thing different this time around is I went 8 days in the same pair of shorts.... Ok.. So part 1 - Getting to Spain... Sounds easy right? Yeah.. Not so much. After me and Rich (sfne2005) found out our flight had changed times and buildings... We got to where we needed to be in Logan (Boston Airport) Well.. Our 'new' flight because 3 hours delayed making us miss our connection in Chicago to get to Madrid.... So they put us on a flight from Chicago to Ireland.... That flight was for like 6pm.. But once more was delayed.. Didnt get on till after 9 (maybe later?).... Got into Dublin to find our flight to Spain once more.... Had been delayed.... Over 12.5 hours after we SHOULD have got to Spain... We made it.. And ended up missing the 'zero day' at Parque de Atracciones.... And if that doesnt sound bad enough... They lost both of our suitcases... Rich was able to get his back right before the add-on started... Im still waiting for mine to show up.

We made it to the hotel...yay Part 2 (coaster photos!11!1 later tonight) Take two! Many many many hours later.. We end up in Dublin Ireland (Country credit #13!) Photo dedicated to Eric Sun sets on Chicago... And were stuck knowing the plane we should have been on will be landing in Madrid soon... Yet were still stuck in America. After being stuck in the airport for a few HOURS the airline gave out 10$ in free food money.. Crazy toilet at Chicago O'Hare. Say hi to the flight we didnt make...
