Loving the TR mate, keep em coming!

What a great start to a truly memorable couple of weeks Cokes. I can't wait to relive it through the upcoming updates. First class photos and commentary mate and I have to admit hitting those few dark rides here yesterday was not the same without your girlish shrieks

Even though I already knew this, your post still made me very happy! Looks like we got a great group going!

Awesome Elissa I want to get serious about looking for business award flights for the long haul I will await your go ahead!

We are in for Scandi. Killing me with the Japan offering but with the wedding trip definitely can't swing it. Oktoberfest 2015 and China 2016 here we come!

Good news Robb! Wish I was there!

Not really fussed if the changes were planned or in response to recent events I just hope all the ppl on the current TPR tour get to ride (fingers crossed for you Thad!) as it would be a real downer for anyone to get zero of the big 3 credits on the trip.

Great start to your report. Missing Japan like a MF right now, thanks for making my day at work even more unbearable Chuck!

We had a freakish day....... 6 credits and rapids before 12pm without FP. Then used FP for Fujiyama and re-rides on Eggyjanitor and Doubledonga. Doubledonga and Eggyjanitor were freaking insane.....loved them both. Robb was sending out info via text before the park announced...for example got a text to say Eggyjanitor had opened. Got in line and 5 minutes later park announcement to say it had opened and ppl ran from everywhere. Elissa took one for the team and was an amazing FP whore for the day! 20 mins to get in Haunted Hospital longest line of day. With Robb and Elissa's expertise and commitment to get us on as much as they can, fortunate weather, low crowds....kill me for saying it but I loved Fuji Q and I will probably never return unless they add something I just have to ride. Was a memorable day with some great moments and I know a return visit would ruin it. I will do my very best to do a trip report once I catch up with work. I can't promise much coaster analysis and pretty photos but I think I captured a good cross section of Japan and my own stupidity.

Well I am just over the height limit and will be on the TPR Japan trip so I will keep you updated on how it goes!

That will teach you to show her your photos. Japan it is for me and Priscilla!

Believe me any suffering going on at Marineland is from the people that actually are in attendance at any given day.

Yeah, I pretty much thought the same way. And like, if he doesn't like our trips or what we have to offer, he probably shouldn't do them anymore. Maybe I'm just reading it totally wrong, or I don't get your style of writing, I just find the report to be kind of obnoxious towards us. --Robb "Just calling it like I see it." Alvey Robb I think it is just how AJ writes and comes across. Now don't everyone start hating on me but I am going to generalise a bit here. I'm an Aussie, yes we are all breast fed fosters beer and box on with kangaroos. A generalisation but hell 90% true! Now AJ is studying to become a Mechanical Engineer.......lets be honest they are a different breed! I am in the customer service industry to, we build and install people their dream kitchens and as soon as I meet someone who is a mechanical engineer and start dealing with them I know straight away. They over analyze, they are VERY literal and you learn to adapt to deal with them. But at the end of the day even when I am standing in their maginificent new kitchen while the wife is telling me how great it is the husband Mr Mechanical Engineer is pointing out something so miniscule or irrelevant I will actually ask them if I am on candid camera. End of the day Robb and Elissa put on a first class....let me rephrase that Elissa puts on a first class show, nothing classy about Robb or us male contingents on the trip buts lets be honest thats what makes them uniquely TPR. AJ keep wiriting your trip reports, maybe round up your scores and in future if you were ever to write about the Anchor Bar or bonus Niagara Falls trip in the future. Just say how awesome it was that in the face of MArtins closing on us, Robb and Elissa managed to organise in the smallest amount of time a side trip to the Falls which is still stunning even though I have been there before, say you are not a huge fan of wings but to be able to go to the original birth place of them was fantastic..... you are a smart and nice guy I am sure you get it! Aussie "Also calls it like he sees it" Steve

Cause its bloody AJ, come one you just gotta laugh that some people just don''t get it! imagine if we had Goggles and AJ together on the one trip, sh*t I would have had to drink ALOT of beer then! I am to lazy to write trip reports but all I can say is if you ever thought of doing a TPR trip, just effing do it, amazing time, met some amazing people, had some classic effing laughs, even Amber had grown on me by the end. Oh yeah rode some kick ass coasters to! And remember....drink beer MF'ers

Definitely doing this in December when I am in town. Very jealous you got to ride with Fittipaldi!

First TPR trip and first Bash, can't wait guys!

Great report mate, looks like you could spend hours looking around in there!

Looking nice can't wait for the Leviathon Tour thanks for the update!

After 4 years of lurking and checking the TPR forums daily I thought it was time to say hi. My name is Steve, I live in Adelaide, South Australia. I have ridden 191 coasters and love visiting the USA. I met my now fiance "Priscilla" in Tampa Florida in 2003 while visiting friends. She lives with me here in Australia now. I do not have a local park but being a yearly visitor to Florida, Busch Gardens and the Orlando parks are what I consider my regular parks now. I love coasters, anything Disney and I design kitchens for a living! We are heading back to the USA in October for 5 weeks, for Halloween and Theme Park goodness and visit my home away from home and my future inlaws. One day I would love to do a TPR trip
