Favorite Disney Park
vkc replied to America Sings Freak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Tokyo DisneySea - incredible theming! -
Well I just hit all the parks at the top of my bucket list in the last couple of weeks - so that was pretty cool: Magic Kingdom Epcot Animal Kingdom Hollywood Studios Universal Studios Orlando Islands of Adventure SeaWorld Orlando Now I need a new list - I'm thinking the following: Hong Kong Disneyland - so much has changed since I was last there in 2007 Disneyland Paris (both parks) - only went for 1 day in total in 2012 - so didn't get anywhere near doing everything. Shanghai Disneyland (when it opens) Port Aventura Phantasialand Heide Park

Haha - I'll never forget those alpine slides and the skin "incident". The Japan trip for next year sounds good. -

Photo TR : Tokyo Disney - September 2010
vkc replied to la2lvtom's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Nice Report Thomas - thanks for taking the time to post it. Brings back memories of Japan and those great theme parks! I quite enjoyed Thunder Dolphin although the queue was quite slow moving I remember. -
Post your milestone coasters
vkc replied to bgwfreak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I can't really remember what number 1 was as it was so long ago now - it would have to be something at Dreamworld on the Gold Coast I reckon - maybe Thunderbolt? 50 = Atlantis Adventure at Lotte World in Seoul, South Korea (very cool ride) 100 = Spinning Coaster at Yokohama Cosmoworld, Yokohama, Japan -
Agree with the last 3 comments. I am really enjoying reading this thread - it brings back all the great memories from the TPR Tokyo Trip last year!

Theme Park Review's 2008 Asia Tour!
vkc replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Thanks Robb for the continued updates. I had an awesome experience in Korea with you and the rest of the TPR gang. For me T-Express is my number 1 woodie - but after an hour of ERT on it the many, many airtime hills started to knock me around a bit - still a great ride though. And Eagle's Fortress - WOW! My new number 1 coaster. Riding at night with the lights off is way cool. And after the hour of night ERT I could have easily gone round for another hour. And Atlantis Adventure at Lotte World - pretty damn awesome also. Seoul rocks! -
TPR 2008 Trips! Download the flyers here!
vkc replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The East Coast trip flyer mentions this - "We will be discussing an official add on once sign ups are complete." Obviously there is limited info available on this matter currently - but all I want to know is whether or not the add-on will be before or after the main trip - obviously this may not be known yet. From previous trips it appears that add-ons usually occur after the main trip. Thanks for any help provided. -
Busch Gardens Europe 2007 Photo Trip Report
vkc replied to TheRapidsNerd's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Thanks for the update. The Photos make the park look really pretty in opinion. One question for Busch Gardens Europe veterans out there - is one full day enough to see the park in full without rushing? -
Walt Disney World - cameras
vkc replied to coastermaniac's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Are the rules the same at Disneyland and DCA in Anaheim as well? -
Great Update once again - i will have to go one day just to ride Ramses and Bouncy, Bouncy. One thing about Firefox - my streaming works fine - but if it doesn't you can still download the video as follows - Right click on the black video screen and select properties. Then copy the site info out of the location section into your address bar and push enter. Firefox now allows you to save the file so that you can view whenever you want to. Bring on the next update!

What rides have you ridden in their debut season?
vkc replied to Olsor's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have ridden a few rides here in Aussie in their opening season but the big one for me was the Indiana Jones ride in Anaheim - i rode it on opening day! I was on holiday with my family way back in 1995 and it was pure chance that the ride opened that day. And i am going back to CA this year for a vacation with my mate so Nemo Sub will be a first season ride for me also as well as Sierra Sidewinder. -
What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?
vkc replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster at Warner Bros. Movie World on the Gold Coast - right here in Aussie. -
TPR's 2008 Trips - We need your help!
vkc replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I filled it out the other day. The Europe trip would be my favorite for 2008. Being from Australia the non-USA trips cost as much as the USA trips since i have to get to the USA. The big USA trips - i.e. East Coast are also appealing - whereas i wouldn't go for the short USA trips unless i was already in the US. Scandinavia sounds good for future years. Disney around the world - all i can say is very nice, but also very expensive and i bet very popular.
