Tusenfryd is really upping their theme park content, with the new spinning coaster, and this soon-to-be inverted one. It "almost" makes me want to revisit the place, and hike up and down and up and down that (truly) "Mountain Park". Oh, did I forget to mention ..... up and down and up and down and .... One of "those shots" ~ TPR 2014 Scandinavia Tour.

R.I.P. Vertigo. TPR 2014 Scandinavian Tour.

I could spend at least three days at Europa Park. Thanks for the great TR of your visit there.

^ I thought he was amazing as Sonny in "the first" The Godfather film. Then of all places, with Streisand in "Funny Lady" and later with Bette Midler in "For The Boys" (a fave Midler movie of mine). And of course, "Elf". He was great in a lot of great films. Will miss him.

^ Looking forward to how this all works out. Just noticed, that the art work for that last one (Tiana on the bow with Louis beside he boat), includes the current mode of Splash Mountain transport, the "conga line" seating, lol. Subject to change of course, to the side-by-side ones in WDW and Tokyo.

^ I don't think they're going to do anything in future, with their Splash Mountain. Somehow, the racist connection with the Disney movie isn't with the Japanese locals. They honestly don't know a lot about the USA film's racist past. They've had to have their own history to deal with. So I really don't think, there's going to be any major change to Splash Mountain at TDL. IMhO.

^ The "Wind Seeker" thing sort of looks like what we got at Playland(PNE) this year. What we got at Playland, is being called SkyBender.

^ Yum, lucky co-workers!

Lucky, lucky me, several days ago! The underlined 4, was the only number I matched on the nightly draw.

Just found out, that after nearly two years of retrofitting, our Coaster in Playland(PNE) is now going to have SEAT BELTS installed for "added safety". What a crock. The thing's been running for over 60 years, and not one person has died on it. Without seat belts. Period. They just neutered Coaster. And all those past accolades (and awards) from clubs and individuals, just got pissed on. Period. I don't think I'm ever going to ride it again. Not that way.

Well, this sucks, big time! With new press releases about the new Skybender flat ride in the park, they also added this crappy piece of information about Coaster... Yeah, now we won't be able to pop up out of our seats like we used to, with amazing air time on Coaster. And this is after 64 years of operation??? Crap. What a letdown after waiting these past years while it got "retrofitted." I'm not that sure that I want to even ride it again, after this "addition." Ever. We'll see, but it still sucks.

Jack and Jill, went up the hill To fetch a pail of water. Jack fell down, and broke his crown, But Jill accomplished the task, without any trouble at all.

Groceries = nearly $190 Cdn for two weeks of stuff. ^^ P.S. Your new rainbow boots look awesome. Bert! Both pairs, actually.

^ One can only hope and wish for it.

^ Well, I assume when that happens, that actual live actor repping Spidey, comes out of it, on the ground, and done it as though he's "not quite made it" etc.

A week ago, I went back to the pizzeria place that used to be my "usual spot", way before the pizza place opened across the street from us. Sunrise Pizza isn't Neapolitan style, like Via Tevere serves. Sunrise's pizza are loaded with cheese and cooked in a regular oven. And they're pretty filling too, for one person! Here's how it went... On my way to Sunrise. Lots of really nice yards and gardens around us in the neighborhood. Here we are! This pizzeria has been in it's location for "almost" 50 years! Inside of the place. Pretty plain in the daytime. Looks better at night IMhO. A nice lager to start with. First, a Single Greek Salad. And this one was HUGE! More than I remember it being. My 'usual' which was a pepperoni and mushroom, and black olives. What I can see of Commercial Drive, from where I'm sitting. I have too much food! So the rest went home with me. Everything was excellent!

Worth a repeat listening. Woot!

^All awesome looking, as always! But that first photo - what are the ingredients .... in? Or actually, what is that thing?

^ I just keep on drooling, at seeing every one of those he's made, and shown us, LOL!

Easy... The Roller Skater!

^ I also suggest getting into the Rubber Boot 'Rental System' for the park. Good $$$ made there, lol. Fresh socks included, too.

Just read about this, and saw a photo...... Spider-Man Fall Down Go Boom? The AA web slinger kinda missed it, going over the wall in DCA. Hitting it instead. Ouch. Fortunately, 'he' didn't blow up on impact, lol.

Hickory dickory dock. Three mice ran up the clock. The clock struck one..... And the other two escaped with minor injuries.

^^ I have to ask you: are you using a special pizza-baking appliance for all of these delicious creations? Or just in a regular old oven? Or neither one? I forget if you did mention your cooking process, from "all of the above".

"About Damn Time!" Lizzo
