Holiday World TR: 7/11/09
EnglndPatriots6 replied to EnglndPatriots6's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Thanks. On the pre-recorded audio for the dive show they said 70 with the top of the pole as 80 so i guess they're wrong. When i go back in August ill get a few key pictures of raven and then the shops, the games, restaurants, and slides and then ill say its the most complete TR for HW I've ever seen. -

Splashin Safari, Dive show pictures, and misc pics. These are the final pictures. Thanks for everyone who looked at them and posted. Anyone notice anything odd about this picture? I forgot the other Water Tower so here's the old one From sometime before 2004 Map from1993 the first guy is at 30 ft. the second is at 50 and the top guy is at 70 ft. Dive 2009 performer falling to the water. On fire also Too lazy to walk I just zoomed in The first trrehouse style play area The original wave pool Tried to be artistic here. Another of my favorite Lazy Rivers Kima bay is a nice addition also Bakuli + Voyage One of the best wave pools ever a interactive kids area Jungle racers is pretty neat also Slightly artistic. These are my favorite I have to say The waterpark is really good. -

Holidog Fun Town Pictures: More Signage Looks more like they're doing exercises. The Giant looks a little..weird if you ask me. Whoever's shoe this was had some pretty deformed feet. Shouldn't she be reported to the CPA? Maybe he should see a doctor for that swelling. Who steals pigs, seriously? Howler, the parks kiddie coaster I thought he fell? It would be cool if these sprayed water at you So how about you come over to my place tonight? -

Thanksgiving Pictures, It also means the mostly in-depth look at gobbler getaway: I almost got Master turkey caller just needed another 30 points Thanksgiving: The Musical So we chased turkeys all day so you would just have pizza for dinner instead of turkey? Give me a hug! Bwahhhh!!! Your ride vehicle The first scene(i might not add captions for these, they are in order as you come to them on the ride though) And yes it is fully themed. The parks lone dark ride. Really good to This place looked good but we weren't hungry at the time. It looks like it was a buffet of some sorts A new park icon is born. And then splashes down One on the way down The station The new ride they added. Its 136 ft tall I believe Two rides in one. The drop is massive for a wooden coasters Took me forever to just get this shot almost perfectly For those of you who don't know, Its pretty tall Artistic shot Voyage the #1 wooden coaster Signage -

Yep it was really great. We saw Pat working at the Kringles Kafe for breakfast and dinner, and then she was cleaning the park before it opened. That's dedication. The fourth of July pictures are up by the way. Halloween: Trying to figure out what the hell is going on with the seat belt. Stupid divider. The station is really nice. One of my best pictures of the day Good overview of the layout that's visible from the water park From thanksgiving. Another picture I think is pretty good Got bored at the dive show so I started to watch Legend. Legend was being very photogenic for me today. And this is the main focus of Frightful Falls Nice pic of both signs. And as the name implies it is a scrambler The ride has been toned down quite a bit from recent visits, just seemed slower. See, almost everyone has this picture The ride looks better at night Signage -

So me and my cousin and his wife drove up to the park Saturday. It was one of my best trips to a park in a long time. The only problem was getting there at 8 central time which we forgot to plan for central time. Raven was running great, I think I got in about 20 rides the whole day. There was almost no wait for most of the day. We was able to get to it fast enough to be the first ride of the day which was pretty cool. The stupid PTC trains kill me though. The divider just smashes you into seat. It was running fairly smooth and wasn't nearly as rough as the last trip. Legend was running great also, but the PTC trains just take away from the ride. They would be fine without such a bulky divider. This was one of the rides that I got a lot of artistic pictures on, well to me they are. Pilgrims Plunge was fun to watch. I didn't feel like waiting in line for it though and i had jeans on so I didn't really feel like walking around with soaked jeans all day. The ride seemed to be continuously moving I must say. Voyage Is even better this year, on the ride and from the ground. The new viewing area for the splash down for PP allows you to get a better look at the ride. I'll be putting the pics on section by section since my camera was set to take pics at 2048 x 1538 so i have to re-size them all. This should be a pretty well detailed TR but it's not 100% complete. I didn't get many pictures of the Christmas section but ill be back this year and ill finish. Now the pictures: The front of the building is pretty neat. We ate here all day Sign walking into Christmas from the 4th of July and Halloween sections And heres a up close. I wonder what the boat was doing up there at 8 in the morning central time. Two of the parks amazing rides Must be getting close. Stupid traffic sign We passed this awesome ride on the way to Holiday World Their launch tower; pretty fun ride. They got banners like these all over the park for each section I like these kinds of rides The parks carousel. Pretty good ride to rest your feet on. We ate here for dinner, the tacos were the best. The bumper cars was ok but the one way thing kinda ruins the point of ride. That's about how tall Liberty Launch is. Whatever he did made it groan to a stop both times they started it then it magically came back to life working properly Pretty good picture. The ride broke down shortly after I took it, and we got the footage! The parks spider. The cars were pretty fun but we almost came off the track. Cant forget the sign. And if for some reason you didn't get wet so far this scene will make you get wet. Raging rapids will get you wet. But it lies about stealing your glasses. Some history on the Train The only original ride left in the park But for some people its just boring Eagles flight is fun when the wind is really blowing. -
^ I thought Premier Parks owns all of it?. But i agree with your plans. If they do add one it should be one like liberty launch at Holiday World. And if its possible make a drop tower twin to it and make them about 2 or 3x larger then the one at HW. One comment i have to say is that the accident wasnt entirely the parks fault it was mainly intamins. I say that becuase they found that it shouldnt have been built with exposed cables, and they wouldnt give them a new maintenance book for the ride either.

^^ Mc your a member at Intercot so you know how great vb's are but they use a outdated version and dont have the features enabled that alot of sites do. It was only a thought since vb's are cheap and make things easier and much simpler. Ok so im about to start posting my photo TR from Saturday, how exactly am i supposed to do it? I've heard to start with your last picture and then work your way to the first and vice versa. -

Ahh ok. Well i hope it happens. Things just felt odd coming here from vb forum sites. But i got used to it. But when you do eventually and the coding is finished and you get the kinks worked out your gonna really enjoy it. I just thought it seemed kinda odd that it was a a more main stream forum yet. Maybe he could hire someone to manage getting the trips set up and everything? just a thought. Hmm he could do the same for getting a person to work on re-coding. And if he can figure out how to get google adsense to work on the vb he could be reimbursed through that until he gets back enough money off it that he paid to the guy to re-code. but i dont really like ads on forums. And about my photo TR ill try and cut some of the non-essential pics out and post it section by section so i dont make a huge post. Just thought id let you know -

Theres actually not a real cost to redo it. the only re-coding you need to do is just the ones they say to do before you install to your webserver. Im in the process of doing it, its pretty simple. phpbb im not sure. I want to say its compatible with it but im not sure. but really 180 for a owned license(means you can use forever) isnt really that bad. Plus there are some people if you need to re-code it that might do it for free. im jsut saying tho. And the way to get a homepage like this for it, you would need to download vbadvanced CMPS which is free, they offer a better version for 50 dollars but i dont see a reason for it. Like i said i dont know much about phpbb since ive only worked with vbuletin, but i can find out for you all. Oh yea and some of the things it hink you all have added are some standard features on vb. and what my friends site uses for his chat, is called flashchat and its really nice. and easier to use than the one here in my opinion. And the adminstraion and moderating abilities are mroe then likely better at vb. From what im reading on the vb site, they offer a importer called impex which they say is compatible with phpbb 2.0.x for importing to vb 3.7.x which was the previous model so im sure it will work but it might be best to ask them or contact them. -

Ahh i didnt know if TPR had BBcodes for that stuff enabled. Since its only used on Vbulletins(which i dont see why this isnt a vb since you all make enough off these trips, i mean they are only 180 dollars and its a 1 time cost to buy a owned license, just sayin) -

^ its the almsot complete TR of HW. Im missing a few key pics of raven and the shops and games. a few are just of my cousin. If this was a Vb site it wouldnt be a issue because i could just copy and paste off my site to here using a spoiler code. -
