Wow... You stayed at the Comfort Inn of Castaic and lived to tell the tale! I'm impressed. -
Cupcakes, Pie, Cookies...whatever you want, just tell my husband and he'll beat me into submission!

Wow, I'm really blown away by the looks of Everest. It simply looks amazing! On the same level as DisneySea...I'm really looking forward to this one! Thanks for the TR! -
Yeah, most of the time I'm just baking pies in the kitchen barefoot and pregnant!

What happened to Riverwalk? Flooding, broken windows? Are the cruise ships coming in again yet or not? -
Hmmm, I love wishful thinking like this! - Quit my job - Buy a couple of houses all over the world to make travel easier - Setup a 'scholarship fund' for the TPR Trips - Build my own FEC in Orlando with only thrill rides. (and dueling/racing Expedition Ge Forces) - Travel A LOT - Setup trust funds for future kids and stuff - Buy a dedicated server for TPR.com! - Upgrade 'waterpark cam' to more than a ziploc bag! - Give some money to Special Olympics - Buy more Chip n Dale merchandise - Buy a hamster, 2 penguins, and make a prairie dog colony - Turn a room in each house into a 'trampoline room' ala Bill Gates - Buy all the cool things I always see for friends and family that I can't buy because they're too expensive That's enough for now!

Starting Dec. 17th the park is open daily thru the 24th, closed Christmas, then open again daily the 26th thru the 8th. Xmas week will be bad, try for either the week before or depending on how long you're in town for that first week in January is always DEAD!!! If you want to ride X get to the park with your tickets in hand by 9:30 (if you don't have tickets yet, get there earlier). Run right to X. Then Deja Vu and everything else. If it's very crowded you can buy Fastlane tickets which will allow you only a 15 min wait on Riddler, Scream, Goliath, Colossus (that's what I would normally use them on). Let us know when you'll be in town! Hope this helps, feel free to ask more specific questions!

It's kind of hard for me to list them all since I do half of all of the segments! I did in fact do the Toverland and Farup ones. If you are wondering about any specific segment, just ask!

Yeah I have to agree that Kanonen was the weakest launch of the ones I've been on (Dragster, Xcelerator, Storm Runner). Doesn't matter, still a good ride, and this one looks even better! We'll be bringing 30-35 people over the BIG POND with us! -

Yes!!! It launched right out into my face!!! It really hurt! -
Went to the park tonight just to get confirmation that the Rapids Camp Crossing area is now closed for awhile. The park was in the 3rd parking lot and talking to someone who works there they said it was quite busy today. Here's the one picture I took for my 'proof'. Full update tomorrow! Max, Michael, Robb, Antonio, his family, and I will all be there! Hopefully it will be back open after normal business hours on the weekends! Or else I'm really going to get a work out 'shooting the update'
-
LOL! Love it!

Let's also give Tusenfryd a break here! It's not a giant corporate park, and those trains are expensive! It's actually kind of sad that it seems like the smaller parks are now the ones getting these interesting rides, while the mainstream parks are no longer 'pushing the envelope', instead just getting crappy cookie cutters. -
11/10/05 After getting somewhat freaked out by that, Max and I make our getaway to the future! The rumors were true...I'm in the damn book they use to sell tickets to other parks! Spongebob was Vibrating, it was really kind of disturbing! I thought it was kind of cool getting to see them tow the plane back from the big finale to Waterworld. Gilligan walks around absorbing everything in 3D! Elissa finds the best souvenir ever! Robb is now easily replaced! LAME! Hi, I'm Ron Howard. Elissa no like spinning tunnel! This one's for Derek! This one's for Dan! Max liked this part of the tram tour since it was religious. Part The Waters! Max checks out all the awesome ET merchandise! Matt is one with the Egyptians. Yup, double rides on Mummy, would have been great had I not had a piece of Ice launched at me in the 'fire' room!!! OUCH! SharkTums SMASH! This was a really nice touch that Universal does when it's either raining or cold out. Steve Sanders from 90210 came to welcome Max as well! Went to pick up Max at the Airport, glad this wasn't his plane!

^LOL It still boggles my mind that people think we jumped out of the ride! Even when there's a picture on the site of us on the lift with the rideop!!! Eh, whatever...and yes, you're right, I rode the Super Gerbil 64 times that day!

I understand what you're saying, But on the Tusenfryd website I see another 'official' drawing and it says differently. Trust me, I'd rather have the airtime hill than a corkscrew, but at that point they would have to change their press release and graphics to read 3 inversions. I'm also wondering when they made this change, as I would assume that most of the engineering and fabrication is done. I don't think it's that easy to just 'swap elements'. Again, I'm not trying to be obnoxious, I'm just trying to figure out what the layout is!
