Halloweentime at Disneyland
itnotfair replied to ECZenith's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^Wow, thanks for taking the time to post that awesome and detailed review. I can't wait to ride ghost galaxy! -
Thanks for posting that link. That video is insane and really scary. Definitely glad to hear that both of them escaped intact. If I were 12, that experience would probably have ruined coasters for me. On a side note, read the comments after the video posting on the NBC site. Guy thinks that Supreme Scream is the Parachutes, and that the video is clearly "ancient." Hmmm, nope.

I know you're joking, but I'd much rather see a poorly-themed wild mouse than a Tony Hawk clone. Just my opinion. Later on, I'd love to see a mega-lite, giga, or prefab. More airtime please! As for trading rides with other parks, SFMM hasn't kept any of the rides they were given (RIP Flashback), leading me to believe we should get a freebie! On a side note, on my last couple rides on Terminator, I felt 4 pretty awesome pops of airtime. Anyone else have the same count? Just curious.

I just hit the park today with my bro, and it was totally dead! The air quality wasn't bad at all, but it was pretty hot. We got plenty of free ice water, and though we skipped X2 due to molasses-like one train operation, everything else was pretty much a walk on. Overall a really fun trip. Terminator ran great! Funniest part of the day, some guy was standing right next to the drinking fountains by Terminator, filming something with his camcorder. When I went to take a drink, the water arced up and hit him in the crotch! He was pissed, but my brother and I couldn't stop laughing.

That was me. Sorry for the outdated surfer lingo. You may well be right, and Labor Day weekend might not mean large crowds, especially with the air quality in the area. Still, it's something to consider, and I thought I'd bring it up. Anyway, here's hoping the air clears and the crowds remain small for everyone's weekend trips! EDIT: More importantly, here's hoping our brave firefighters all come out of this shit storm okay.

Yosemite Sam's Sierra Falls is a water slide, but it opened in 1993, two years before Hurricane Harbor opened. Also, it doesn't require swimwear, as riders navigate the course on a raft. I have heard people say they think Hurricane Harbor should just absorb the slide, since it is so close to the water park's edge. In fact, its so off the beaten path, I have only just recently ridden it for the first time after countless visits. I really enjoyed it, and I think it's nice having a fifth water ride in the park. Valencia can get really hot. I'm going to have to try leaning forward next time!

Rider Cam and the effects of Gravity!

That's even better than Flash Mountain! -
Sorry if this is a little OT... Has anyone noticed that RCDB lists Timberline Twister at 30 ft. high? Every time I go to Knott's, I try to find a low part in the ground next to a high part in the track that might get it close to 30 ft. Never happens. This ride cannot be 30 ft. tall. I know it isn't a big deal, I was just hoping someone could tell me I'm not crazy. The truth is out there!

Photo TR : Cusco, and Lima Peru

Very cool TR guys! As for the unknown meal, I couldn't help but think it looked exactly like the hairless dog you had in the previous picture! I'm sure it wasn't, but I had a little chuckle.
