^ I think the biggest happy surprise to me of these pix, is seeing the (to me) new green paint job on Magic Mountain, at Gardaland. Sooo much better than that grimy old white colour on it. And it works with Sequoia Adventure inside it, quite well. But - here's one of my faves, that I have taken through the years, on TPR Tours... INSANE in Grona Lund. The night shots were great, of a lot of rides here. (TPR 2014 Scandi Tour)

Just bought myself two pairs of tickets, to our summer musical theatre in town, Theatre Under The Stars...or TUTS. This year, it's Hairspray and Oliver! I did the original first years of shows (1969-77) that TUTS did, including Carousel (chorus), Hello Dolly! (dancer), My Fair Lady (dancer), Brigadoon (dancer), Fiddler on The Roof (Perchik), and West Side Story (Riff). And there was nothing like performing outdoors, competing with the crows, seagulls, planes, and the 9 o'clock gun that went off every night, in another part of Stanley Park, lol. Me and the poster of TUTS' first (1969) musical, Carousel. I was in the chorus. Back then, it was called"Theatre In The Park."

It looks like it's being "eaten" by an Alligator... ...and then "coughed up" by a Sea Serpent, heh. Yes, without this theming, it definitely has the same layout as Orkanen. And that was a great coaster in Farup! I think I rode it over 10 times on the TPR visit last summer. Which for myself, is a LOT for one coaster, no matter how much I like it. Painting you see in the Orkanen queue - and I could very well see some sea monsters poking up around there, hmm? (o; And UP out of the Sea Serpent's Mouth!

^Great! And I just realized, I wanted to ask you about... I heard there's this special Cirque "deal," involving being able to see several Cirque shows in one week or so, at a really good price, and it happens during the first week or so of December... Is this still happening every year? I definitely would love to do it, with so many Cirque shows to choose from.

They've just posted the new map for the park at this link. Which now shows the re-located Crazy Beach Party; Music Express; and the Scrambler as well. And of course, where The Beast is now located. http://www.pne.ca/playland/maps-and-directions.html (Sorry I couldn't change it from PDF to posting quality, here.) -
