Let's have a Chip & Dale moment. This one's for you, Elissa. (o;

It's a Larson Looper....Sideways and With a Twist!

Problem

Well honestly, it really is a matter of how strong they make it in.....food/drink/snack, etc. This was a nice light taste of pumpkin in the Madeleine, which made it tolerable, to have more. And then, I found this one.

And then there are those Pumpkin Sauce-Spiced Fries I've just discovered....somewhere else in the world.

Zaturn / ザターン Space World (Yahata Higashi, Kitakyushu, Fukuoka, Japan) Removed, Operated from 4/29/2006 to 12/31/2017 A real classic of it's kind, I got to ride on two separate TPR Japan Tours! Photo from the net, thanks!

I keep getting asked about having one, at every entry into my local Starbucks. It's getting almost surreal at the predictability of hearing after "hi Bill.....". I did "totally accidentally I swear!" buy what I thought was a trio of their Vanilla Madeleines? Turned out to be That P Spice, and I didn't figure it out until my second cookie! And.... I liked it. So....there ya go. And here's a new one I just found... with ACTUAL - REAL - PUMPKIN in it!...I think it's somewhere in China.

If it is bad..... ....then that's definitely.... goooood. And I puke on your Pumpkin Spice, bleah!

Know.

So sez Page 29.....

Great shots from where the stadium used to be, Bert! They've made it such an open area, for now. Almost "green park space," which is what a large chunk of the PNE was turned into. Ah, I definitely missed the "wooded area" of the park. And the bar in there too, lol. Great stuff, Bert, all of it. And YAY, more rides on Cedar Downs for ya! P.S. Hope some (if not all) of the crappy physical pain/hurt has started to heal up, etc.

Since this is in "The Season" (boo to you), I thought to post these great fuzzy spooky great (to me) shots of Coaster in Playland(PNE), during my Fright Night visit, a year ago (Oct.24th, actually). And I am sure that all that "fog" that Playland was piping into the park, and spilling out, was making "the look" of Coaster even better! I didn't realize it at the time, but when I got on the West Coast Wheel, I saw that all the playing fields behind Coaster, all had their overhead night lights on. And, it was making Coaster look really REALLY COOL! And after I watched one coaster train careen through the track, I immediately had to take pix of it all! I am hoping the lights will be on again, when I go back on the 17th. And if they aren't on... oh well, I got some great shots last year's visit!

^ Ooooooooo nice. I don't get to ride Coaster here at home in the dark, until I go to my Fright Night on the 17th, at Playland(PNE). What Coaster looked like last year, when the playing fields' lights behind it, were on. Looked amazing! Especially when a train roared by. Photo taken from the West Coast Wheel. Oct.24, 2017.

It's really nice to see lots of greenery around, and underneath, many of the rides there. Better than asphalt and "trees in oversize planters" here and there, blah blah. Hello Playland(PNE)? And the tile work on the flume...uh...trench (?) looks nice, too. Thanks for this TR. The park looks great!

^ It's in Movie Park Germany. And that looks just as bad for the crotch as it did, when it didn't tilt forward. Flashback to the TPR 2008 Tour. That video looks just as scary, as when we rode it back in 2008. After the fall ~ Larry still holding on; Brian checking to see if everything's still there. TPR 2008 Europe Tour. The "pointy arrowheads" on the surrounding fence was a nice visual touch, too. And here's Chuck. Thanks for the shot, Robb! (o:

^ Aw that's sad to hear about the arcade. We could have spent hours in there, playing the games and such. Hope that something(s) just as interesting takes their place(s). Bert at Herc. June 2, 2017. Near the end of CoasterMANIA! Day.

.....and, another new one (sort of), out for a short time.....at our local A&W. Also in Buddy and Uncle burger sizes. (o:

Is is my imagination, or are there a lot of Member Registered ------zeds running around in this site? Makes me nervous, about what's possibly going on here.
