1. Tilt-A-Whirl (great with three buds workin'the twirlin') 2. Scrambler (still a good one with your g/bf smashing up against ya) 3. Zipper (if the ride ops are cool - you can swing it till you can't no more) (additional add-on) 4. Rock-O-Plane (see V) -

Theme Park Personality Quiz
Nrthwnd replied to jobber73's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Six Flags Over Georgia! Hey ParkTrips - wanna go dibs on running this place? Lololol. 44% Theme 58% Rides 44% Atmosphere 56% Value ~~~ And I have never been to this park, m'self. :shock: -
Hey kiddo - you got support, lots of it, thru here. You can PM me any time, ok? And anybody else here, ok? Sorry to hear it Emotional hurts are buggers to heal. It'll happen, but the time might be a bit well, you know. Awful. Crappy. Take a long breath in. Exhale it slowly and let yourself ride it out feeling your insides riding part of it. Sit in a good chair for this, lol. Take care of yourself.

One year ago today, we left for Disneyland Paris, Amsterdam and Berlin. A week from today, I leave for Amsterdam. A year from today? Who the f*** knows, really?

This a great set of TRs you are giving us. It's a look into theme parks, waterparks and attractions we in North America (especially) don't see much of, publically. The Eye looks amazing. Sorry that the view isn't too good for you. Keep up the great photo work.

Drove downtown to my home bar, had only one beer, played some pinball, ran into a few buds, then drove home. The beer was Winchester Draft. I like it.

LMAO! Excellent 'reports' here, peeps. I think, tho, that this last ^ "Package Report' Had a bit more.... um....."Production Value Added"? And it's interesting to note, that most of these packs contain Vol.5 and 6 together. Just an observe. ~~~ (Mine will, too ) -
Jahan's 10-8-05 Video TR
Nrthwnd replied to arrowfanman's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wow - that was very impressive, especially the syncing of the music with the various rides. Excellent editing there. One more credit I know I should have gone on, back in 1975. Or later on. Great TR. -
Nice Closing Day TR. And to all you in the USofA with a few more coasters at your disposal? Bitch all you want about how slow such-and-such is, or how painful so-and-so is getting, take note: Playland/Vancouver - One great wood, one awful old steel corkscrew, and one soon-to-kill-someone mad mouse coaster. Galaxyland/Edmonton - Mindbender 3-looper steel, two smaller family coasters. All indoors in the "Great Edmonton Mall." Calaways/Calgary (^see above^) And that is IT for all of Western Canada's coaster collection. And they haven't been added to, for years and years and... Thanks for the TR - now I know I don't need to get to Calaways so badly, lol. One coaster credit aside.

You'd be surprised how long some things take to get from (ahem) there to here. With all the Customs searches now and whatever... I am really surprised if anything reaches me in under two weeks. That's a bonus, if something arrives any earlier. But that's between our postal system, and the US' system, hmmm? I am sure there's a much better quality delivery system available between Europe and Uncle Sam Land.

Nice..... steak&fries. And, a Peter Pan Diner??? :shock: Things you learn on Trip Reports, lol. Thanks Den. (from another carnivore of choice)
