Mega potato.

^ Ha!

Japanese Jaws is always awesome! Now I miss Universal Japan.

Well, we leave tomorrow, for another awesome TPR Tour - to Japan! But before that, I better close this TR up. And so I shall... The "On Ride Photo" taken at Parque Bicentario was actually an In Station Photo, and really, through all of this tour, there really weren't many (if any) on ride pix to get. But that was okay. One photo was better than no photos at all, lol. And although it was a short trip (Saturday to Saturday), it was just as awesome as all the longer tours I have been on. The (mostly) nice weather, the food, the hotels, the people of Mexico, the parks, everybody I toured with - all a fantastic part of this tour. Thanks again go out to Robb and Elissa, for another great tour. You guys were again a-ma-zing in everything you did for us. Big BEARhugs go out to you guys! Thanks JC, for being a great room mate on this tour. Although I must say, I don't think I ever had a roomie who got up earlier than me, every morning LOL! It was great and I hope we get to tour together in the not-too-distant future. So that's all I got from the TPR Mexico Tour! I hope that some day, many of you will get the chance to visit this country, ride some coasters, eat great food, sightsee. All good. And thank you to all of you who read this TR from me. I hope you enjoyed it from my point of view and that you yourself, will post trip reports of your own awesome tours with TPR. So ADIOS AMIGOS...and see you on a Theme Park Review Tour some year! My one "in station photo" lol. Me and JC in front. Cliff and Michael behind us. On the Montana Rusa loopscrew coaster, at Parque Bicentario. Me and JC - an awesome room mate. See you sooner than late I hope, buddy. Me and The Alveys. Robb looking lovely, as usual. Great tour guys; you Rawked Mexico!

I miss Tobu Zoo. Oh well, another visit, eventually. Great start to the tour, everybody! And all - that - popcorn!.... yum.

Almost in Japan, almost in Japan, almost....

^ Thanks for the reminder. I'd forgotten about that one ending, too. There must be another day time harbour show they'll (eventually) come up with to replace "Mythica". I hope.

I Can't Go For That - Hall & Oates

Must - have - Platter (on next TPR Scandinavian Tour.) By the way - are they still serving this "pepper steak" at the park, I remember other TPR people raving about....? (from past tours)

^ That hotel (so far) looks massive! indeed.

Ice Bat rules over all! That said, if I had one it would read ... YVR-CSTR1

No secret, I'm hooked on Disney. Especially the Asian parks.

"Getting Messed Up, On A Monday" ~ Jeremy Fisher ~

^ I just found out at our super market, this morning! The new I&M packs weren't there in the usual rack yet - but then, all the old ones were gone. Talk about timing, heh heh.

^^ Very very nice. I teared up. Life can be really really great, some times.

^ I will miss the old show, too. But I am sure a few of those things that made the first show so special (like the trapeze), especially for children, will be used again. And it looks like they are going to design the new show to still run only as long as the first one - 15 minutes. Short for adults, but more than enough time to enthrall all the kids, which is who the production is mainly for, lol. And like I said before - something new and awesome to come back to see, at Tokyo Disney Sea.

Cosmoworld & Sea Paradise Park (same day)... JAPAN! (coming up this coming Friday, I believe)

Is there any dark ride part of the midway? Or walk through fun house? Just curious.

They're back on the shelves after JULY 15th! Twinkies Forever!

Mark, I honestly can't remember it's name, but it was part of our annual fair, The PNE, for several summers as part of the Playland expansion during the fair itself. I loved riding it, from the start of climbing that staircase into the middle part, then choosing which circle to go into and which bench to take.... great flat. Like a Very fancy Scrambler Wedding Cake! And it tilts! And especially at night with all it's lights on, and spinning away. I have one shot of it in black and white, from way up above, from the Observation Tower, when it existed.... But I still can't name the damned thing, sorry.

^ Very cool for you to be a witness of that.

Woo hoo! More new stuff to come back to!

<> Neil and Anth, you look like you're not having any kind of fun, there. (And YES to a Taiwan tour!)

^ You had to remind him, huh? Wish you were coming along with us, Mark! And maybe - in just a few years - it happens again - be on it! There we are! You, Adam and moi in that ice house (one of many we went into) at Park Espana, Sept.2007.
