  1. ^I honestly really enjoyed the park, and the entire Sentosa Island area. I think the problem is that it's just SOOO far away from the vast majority of 'coaster people' and especially coaster people on this website. For us to get to Singapore it takes a 5 hour flight to LA, a 13 hour flight to Japan, and then a 7 hour flight to Singapore. That's pretty insane. I would have gone back many times if it was the same distance as Europe, and probably at least back once even if it was Dubai or Japan/China distance, but it's just SOOOOO far.
  2. These experiences all get a premium price, but they're all worth it. KT and I still bring up that Adventures by Disney River Cruise on an almost daily basis!
  3. ^I'm assuming bad concept art. Looks like the tower from the Bigfoot Complex in Branson with the addition of a zip line. That new style drop tower with seat belt only is TERRIFYING!!! Can't wait!
  4. We should totally start a running club now! The Front Gate to Steel Vengeance Challenge! First we'll practice running the distance from the front gate to Raptor, then to Wicked Twister, Valravn, Rougarou, TTD, Maverick, and slowly build to SV!
  5. If you're a kid at heart at all, I think the Legoland near San Diego is the second best in the whole chain and much better than the UK version.
  6. This move doesn't surprise me at all and actually makes a lot of sense. You pay A LOT of money for those club level rooms/suites/cabins/whatever and getting an extra perk at a price makes sense. This is not that different from Disneyland Paris Hotel which also offers extra fast passes to those staying in club level in suites. I highly doubt this will impact a normal guests experience.
  7. The place fills up faster than you would think, but obviously the stuff in the back takes longer.
  8. I think as stated in the original post that not all parks and coasters will be included. To be completely fair and honest, I don't think coasters from any of those three parks would ever crack a top 30 list. Obviously you could push for Waldameer more than the other two for the quality wood coaster, but when was the last time Ravine Flyer II was even in a top 20 list?
  9. Updated my original post with everything from my first look through. Very impressed for a beta version. Nice job!
  10. Great start! I'll post any random off things I find here. - Missing DC Rivals at Movie World Australia Whizzer is listed twice This is a kiddie coaster Kiddie Coaster Should be listed in Grona Lund Mystic Timbers listed twice
  11. Good to know, thanks! He actually was assigned a name in the movie (Charlie BackandForth) so we were hopeful!
  12. I would swap your plan. We always do Fastpass for Tower and standby Journey. Journey has a better, faster moving standby queue.
  13. Love the additions on Aquatopia! I didn't realize they had done that. KT is dying to know, did you happen to catch any Ocean Sunfish in the Nemo ride, queue, preshow, anything? He's in the movie for about 5 seconds and she's holding out hope that he'll show up!
  14. Unpopular opinion amongst Efteling Fanboys - It's a 36 year old Vekoma Corkscrew...it should have just been scrapped.
  15. They're a Merlin park now, trust me, they'll find some horrible way to market it! Perhaps it will be another WICKER MAN!!!!
  16. Oh man, great video! What a crazy ride. I love the part in the video where you see one of our taller participants having to duck!
  17. Don Quijote has not had the best track record for rides in their stores, but I'm pretty happy to see this potentially reopening!
  18. ^I think that's the problem though. Kansas City is a decent size city and the airport has way more than 5 gates.
  19. KCI is small and convenient, but that's all I can say. Employees were horrible (unfriendly, trying to scam people, slow, uncaring, etc.) and there's NOTHING in the airport itself other than a scary snack bar and random crappy kiosks.
  20. I'm sure that's a direct result of the Smiler accident. How about also training your maintenance staff and like, not dispatching trains without visually checking they're clear!? Now that I think about, is 100 hours even that much? That's like 2.5 weeks of training, meh.
  21. The new paint looks great and super needed!
  22. You know what? Poor choice of words I guess. The airport itself is fine, though seemingly a little dated? It was mostly about our experience with security. Leaving Philly Thursday to head down we had no issues and got through security really quickly. MCO itself was fine. It was just the really crowded, slow security lines and a million TSA robots running around doing seemingly nothing. Lots of standing around. Being told to take off our shoes and then put them back on. And the others in our line were miserable, I guess for the same reasons we were - the ending of our vacation and that no one seemed to know what they were doing @ security. Just the whole vibe there. Once we got through there we actually loved our little airport bar near the gate and the bartender was awesome. The airport itself was fine. I guess I'm spoiled as it's never taken me more than 10 minutes through MCO security, but I don't use the 'Southwest' security area and I have PreCheck. The TSA however, well, I feel they are equally terrible, unfriendly, and not working at every airport we go to!
