  1. Hey everyone. Today I went to Lunapark with 2 friends. Had alot of fun and decided to post the pics on here so you can be jealous of my awesome homepark.. *wink, wink*

     

    Its pretty much the only themepark within 12 hours of me so it just has to do! They have some.. okay rides here and a Wild Mouse. The ques for the Wild mouse is usually ridiculously long (for a wild mouse..). I think its because all Sydney-siders are all "ZOMG! ITS A COASTER" Anyway..

     

    In the holidays they bring in a temporary ride or two and these school holidays it was a Zamperla Power Surge and a Hurricane ride. Power Surge broke down just as it was over and we were stranded in the air for about 10 minutes and then it slowly started to lower. Very slowly. It usually takes about 20-30 seconds for it to get back to the ground when its in the position we were stuck in and it took about 3 minutes today. Still, fun ride.

     

    Went on the Hurricane, was pretty sickening. We all had to sit down for a few minutes after that one. Then rode the Ranger a few times. Ranger is a HUSS Inverted Pirate ship. Im more of a Kamikaze fan. After the second ride my friend threw up the red slerpee we all just had. Haha. Was quite funny seeing her get off and run to the bin.

     

    Heres the pictures, oh and sorry about using an external site. I know its preferred to use the TPR uploader but ive already uploaded them to photobucket as ive posted another TR on another site so I decided itd be quicker..

     

    Thanks for looking!

     

    On the ferry, heading towards lunapark.

     

    Entrance and Ferris wheel.

     

    Looking down the Midway.

     

    Wild mouse. On the other side is water.. So you get a great view.

     

    Huss UFO. It spins really fast and you stick to the wall. It then lifts up to the vertical position. No seatbelts, nothing.

     

    This ride wasnt open today..

     

    Yay. Power surge.

     

    Hurricane.

     

    Ranger.

     

    Ranger again.

     

    Ferris wheel again.

     

    Us with some characters walking around the park.

     

    And thats all. Hope you all liked it! Nothing really spectacular here but still an alright place to go to for the day and have some fun.

     

    Thanks for reading

  2. Ah alright. That's good to know it won't be busy at all and I can get Busch done in a day. Ill see about getting the 1 day pass for both Universals. I like animals too but we probably wouldn't spend all day there. That Expedition Everest ride looks great fun though, so im sure I could ride that for a while.

     

    I really just hope all the rides are open. My heart will break if I see that SheiKra is closed. They wouldn't be doing ride maintenance around September/October?

  3. Longest I've waited would be around an hour for superman escape @ Movieworld AU. Pretty worth it. Front row too. Woohoo. I waited an hour or so too for the rapids ride at SFMM where i got absolutely soaked.. Ugh :\

     

    Oh and a qustion.. How long do you guys think the ques for rides in Orlando will be in October? Sheikra mainly. Montu looks great too though so I hope that one isn't too long of a wait.. Any ideas? Orlando parks, October?

  4. This is what we are thinking of doing:

     

    Busch x2

    Seaworld x1

    Universal IOA x1

    Animal kingdom x1

     

    Mum didn't really like Universal Hollywood so we probably won't go to Orlandos Universal. Even though I really wanted to ride HRRR

     

    Ah well. I can cope with 2 days @ Busch!

  5. Florida here I come! Thank you very much for suggesting that

     

     

    Ive told mum about it and she likes the idea of Florida. And I like the idea of all them B&M's! Woohoo. I will get to ride SheiKra. Always wanted to ride a dive..

     

    Just another question though.. When would be the best time to go? Because we usually do our holidays in the September/October school holidays (over here). Im not sure if the American schools are in at that time.. But does anyone know if it would be busy around late september/october? Thanks guys..

  6. Hey everyone. Well at the moment im saving some money for a trip to America. My mum said if I can save up enough, she'll take me. At first I thought we should just do the some of the West Coast parks like last time I went.. Hit SFMM, KBF, Disneys etc.

     

    But, I kind of want to go somewhere else and get to different parks. I really wanted to get to Cedar Point.. But I think my mum will just want to go to one place for a week and catch a bus each morning to nearby parks. Not go all over the place.

     

    Where would you recommend going? I need somewhere with parks close by to each other etc. Not too many hours apart. Thats why the West Coast parks were good for us..

     

    Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.
