Photo TR: Chuck Finally Returns to Japan with TPR
SharkTums replied to cfc's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Ugh, I am so mad at you right now Chuck. I'm hungry, it's too late to eat anything, and you post a freakin picture of the Gyoza which is probably my favorite food (and place to eat it) on Earth!! GRRR!!!! -
Jackie Chan to open theme park in China
SharkTums replied to gisco's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I had read about this earlier and got the impression that this may be more of a real park? He's building some sort of Jackie Chan museum in Shanghai and a park in Beijing. I'm picturing JackieChanWood, like Dollywood! -

Wow! US Parks could really learn a thing or 300 from how most International parks get their rides up in plenty of time for opening day next season! -
A TPR Japan 2013 Trip Report
SharkTums replied to RoCo's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^You say to give up on the Zoo, but that's where they're making the bulk of their money and getting their guests through the doors. Would you believe that park saw 30k visitors in ONE day about a month before our visit? All due to those adorable tiger cubs we saw in the zoo. The zoo also was a LOT nicer than it used to be. Didn't seem nearly as terrible tiny typical Asian Zoo. The petting areas were nicely done and you could even go in the cage with lemurs! I'll gladly take the zoo if it means they'll put in a kickass ride like Kawasemi every 10 years! -
I got hot and sweaty just reading this report...and not in a good way!

Any parks you're at on a Friday or Saturday during Halloweentime will demand you buy the skip the line option. American's love Halloween and it gets really packed!

October 12th-14th Cedar Point/ King Island Trip
SharkTums replied to Crazy4Coasters!'s topic in Ask Alvey
You're coming from LA so you'll be in your rental car and it will only feel like 10:15pm to you. You could have rested on the flight and you'll be excited once you land, I don't see why you couldn't make the drive. As an added bonus, there won't be traffic! I understand that some people can't function as well as we do after a flight, I've seen people collapse pathetically after a redeye, so you have to judge what's best, but I would go for it! -
That spinning coaster scared me more than the tilt coaster! It felt so rickety and would fly around the corners over a 1000ft cliff!!!! I assumed one of the cars would just fly right off!
