So it looks like pretty much all the rides will be up and running again by next summer?? Hmm looks like it might be time to get my ass down to Paris soon...

That looks like a ton of fun! And it definitely seems to pack a lot of track into a rather small space. Should be a fantastic addition! *Sigh* As if I didn't already have enough reasons to want to go back to Orlando...

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale imported. Always liked this beer.

Yup, made it to all the newspapers here in Norway. Definitely weird news, but on the other hand not really that surprising given which country the news is coming from.

Perfect desription of how the last week has been here...

I had hamburgers for dinner yesterday. And today they are serving hamburgers for lunch at work. Not a complaint, just an observation...

Stone IPA from Stone Brewing. It was good, very drinkable. I liked it.

While there is still a lot of work to do, I have officially lived for two days in my new apartment and it is awesome!!

^Pitch black at 5:30 here.

The trains looks great, really beautifully designed! But like many others I'm also of the opinion that if I ride in the front seat I want an unobstructed view of the track in front of me.

Been to Tusenfryd twice in the last two years, and on both occassions the park has had some of the worst operations I've ever encountered. Not just here and there, but throughout the entire park. Not the fault of the ride operators, this is a management issue. This therefore makes me very concerned about how this park will be run. I'd love to be proven wrong though! But to look on the bright side, at least we see that something is still happening. I've always said that my attitude towards this park is being built is "I'll believe it when I see it"...

Not able to read the article as it's for subscribers only, but my immediate reaction to this news..... Oh F*CK!!!

Nøgne Ø #100. Not the first time I tried it, but this is an absolute wonderful beer! Not something you drink at a party, but when you want to sit down and really enjoy and spend some time on a good beer, this one is definitely one for those occasions!

^Thanks! Today I got the new washing machine moved up the stairs and installed in the bathroom, so the toughest task is done! Panoramic shot of the new place!

So anyone caught the trailer for the new Beauty and the Beast movie? The movie looks great, but I must say that the music from 0:46 totally gave me the chills!! (in a good way) That wasn't unexpected though, as "Tale as old as time" is IMO one of the most beautiful movie songs ever made.

For me it's not a proper Christmas unless I watch the hour of classic Disney cartoons they show on TV every year during the day on the 24th. The elf with the checkered paint at 3:10 always makes me laugh! As for family traditions, we have a few in our family. We always decorate the Christmas tree in the afternoon/evening on the 23rd, then the 24th is the big day in Norway with Christmas dinner and opening presents in the evening.

I believe my whole list looks like this now: 2003 Supersplash - Tusenfryd Titánide (previously 'Tizona') - Terra Mitica 2005 Kanonen - Liseberg Wild Train - Fantasiana (previously 'Erlebnispark Strasswalchen') Sequoia Adventure - Gardaland Leprotto Express - Mirabilandia 2006 Speedmonster - Tusenfryd 2007 Kirnu - Linnanmäki Mine Train - PowerLand Kvasten - Gröna Lund 2008 Dark Knight - Six Flags Great Adventure Fahrenheit - Hershey Park 2011 Twister - Gröna Lund 2012 Polar X-plorer - Legoland Billund 2014 Seven Dwarfs Mine Train - Magic Kingdom Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts - Universal Studios Florida 2016 Lost Gravity - Walibi Holland Wildfire - Kolmården

^Thanks! Got plenty of work ahead of me in the coming week.

Today I got the keys for my new apartment!!

That's a really cool photo! It's always fun to compare and see how much parks have changed over time.

^It definitely looks a lot better than what we have previously seen. Very curious to hear how it rides!

Great pictures, thanks for sharing! Looks like a place where one could quickly end up spending a lot of money! That might be the weirdest name/theming I have ever seen for a ride like this...

Definitely one of the coolest floorless coaster layouts! Love all these high-quality POVs you are posting, keep it up!

I swear it's a million degrees below freezing outside.... or at least -5*C (23*F). But my body is not adjusted for winter yet, so right now the cold is indeed bothering me!
