The Big Hand

I can't for the life of me remember anything from that night in Germany... Because I was asleep in my bed.

^ Be that as it may, I think they encouraged theft in the waiting queue of Wood Coaster Fireball at Happy Valley Shanghai! Here's what we encountered: Instruction, part one Instruction, part two 01. Consult a ride op whether you would like to ride. People in vertically striped shirts generally do not want to ride! 02. If you have a horizontally striped shirt, you may tilt your head slightly. 03. Do your exercises! Yes, really! 04. Select a friend you would like to ride with. 05. Walk onto the coaster and keep on walking! 06. Place your bag on a shelf, underneath a bag you would like to steal. 07. Ever been on a plane? 08. Grab hold of the bar in front of you without looking at it. 09. Don't let the ride op take the bar away from you! 10. Take the Chinese riding position. 11. Should you return, immediately grab you bag and the bag that was on the shelf above it and pretend it is your own. 12. Run!!!

Why, because I asked him to, of course! But seriously, Robb remembered correctly. I asked him to take a picture of my knees, because they looked like they had been barbecued after that coaster! Dented knees

You caught us. But I must admit, odd things do happen in China! That must be why there were so many people in that city we visited earlier!

I am seriously annoyed by the fact that the page count of this thread is now 538, which is the name of a radio station in my country that plays only crappy music!

I can see it and can post to it.

Lost & Found. So that's where that went...

This tiny new park opened on Wednesday, 13 May 2009, and I had to be there! Well, actually part of the park was relocated from the city centre of Middelburg, Zeeland, The Netherlands to somewhere outside the city and a few rides were added. Let me show you the photos! But be warned: these photos are nowhere near Hanno quality... And YAY! The Credit! They probably got the Zamperla volume discount. They should have done, anyway. The Bouncy Cars were obviously not designed with me in mind... A spinning ship! NOOO!!! Crazy me! I have to get off the track or I'll get run over! But maybe I can hide behind that huge screw! HAIRTIME!!! Somehow I feel I'm doing it wrong... Inside the building was a scary kiddie slide... NOOO!!! Crazy people! Get off the track! You'll get run over! Popular Dutch band Blof was there, performing a geographically appropriate song! Some were still being put in place. Some were quite tall. (according to some conversion tool my height of 1m91 equals about six ft three) Some models had action buttons. This is Mini Mundi's mascot. He is called Giant Dan and he's being bolted to his spot, because apparently the night before he was caught squeezing the Zamperla balloons behind him... This is the view from the entrance area. This picture shows about a quarter of the total area of the park. But we found it in the end! Looks quite new, doesn't it? Of course the traffic getting there was murder...
