Visited American Dream on Sunday and had a really nice day! Did the Nick Park, Dreamworks Water Park, and got Mr. Beast Burger (for the child). Was surprised at how much was actually open on a Sunday with their bizarre Jersey laws! I definitely think the place is now worth a real full day visit!

Curious to see this actually open and run.

I love how busy the park is even with so much snow and cold weather...plus the coasters running...it's great to see!

And that AMAZING Pirate Otter from Europa is named Jopie and he lives in our room now!

It's all about the new clock!

Well, I guess Kristen is going to demand a TPR Trip to Spain now to ride Tom Holland!!!!

I love Pigeon Forge, it's like the worst most perfect place on Earth! I kind of wish Branson was more like Pigeon Forge. Great TR as always!

We actually ate at Focaccia and Nachos one of the days and it was okay! The Tavern was much better though!

Great report as always. I would have LOVED to see your report from Disneyland Paris back in the 2015-2017 days! At that point I think at least half the rides were closed!

TPR gets the best perks on our trips! Mmmmm Chocolate!!!

That flume was so screwed up! Love the group shot!

^I know in the past, yes, it did have to be activated at the home park first. But then you can just keep renewing and not have to go back. Robb and I have Texas passes and KT has a San Diego one just based on where we were when we needed the pass!

^People care, but until it's more official there isn't much to talk about. I mean, if they put the Denmark Tornado cars on VelociCoaster then we'll talk more, I promise.

It's kind of like Knoebels when you finally get there and you're like "how are so many people here at a park in the middle of nowhere!?!"

No more Final Destination coaster!!!

I'm sure they want it open again by IAAPA. RMC needs to show it off!

Bring back the Pokemon plan!

I really hope China changes their policies at some point in the next year or so. I would really like to go back, but the idea of being locked inside a park (even a Disney or Universal park!) doesn't sit well with me. With my luck it would probably be some scary chinese knock off park we would get locked in!

We need more of these new Vekoma SLC's...they're amazing rides!!! Karacho is not a Smiler clone, but similar...like 1/3 of Smiler! Smoother and better in my opinion!

I think you're going to need to wear a cup while riding!

So not to get all coaster nerdy, but is B&M doing the launch for this? How long will the bouncey seats last?

Exactly. I've always had the mantra "You can put more layers on, you can only take so many off!"

Don't expect deconstruction anytime soon. It was announced today that no one can touch it until all the legal craziness is done and we know how long that usually takes.

Our friends just got off an MSC out of Port Canaveral. Also dirt cheap, like $600 for two of them for a week! They said the pizza and pasta onboard was very good and it was a nice ship. They didn't like it as much as Royal Caribbean but way better than Carnival. Put it similar to Princess, not as nice as Celebrity.

^We were at HHN Hollywood on Saturday and it was the busiest we have ever seen that park. Houses during early entry were over an hour and they have weird staggered openings and are like 30min apart in different corners of the park. And don't forget about the Terror Tram which will also have a decent wait time. The Express passes were AMAZING!!!! No lines at all. We're used to Orlando where you still end up waiting 20min with express but that was never the case in Hollywood. They did sell out the night we were there, but then at 11pm they started selling them again. I know it's expensive, but for us it was sooooo worth it to upgrade. Even allowed us to do two of the houses twice as we got opening standby for two of them, and then went back with express later.
