  1. That must have been terrifying being stuck on the Sky Ride back during the blackout. I will get to Boulder Dash eventually!
  2. From my local paper. http://www.thespec.com/news/ontario/article/569979--video-cn-tower-edgewalk-opens-monday
  3. ...Except maybe this. Disney Sea looks amazing!
  4. ^ They have been a good team the last two seasons, but they faced the Wings both years. Sorry, but I really believe it's just a matter of time before the coyotes move elsewhere. They just aren't making any money.
  5. ^ There are coyotes fans? Sorry, couldn't resist.
  6. Best thing to do is learn from the accident, and move on. Glad no one was seriously hurt.
  7. It was running well last weekend. Spins a fair bit, but nothing crazy, and it was nice and smooth. You can check out the TR here: (http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=59856&p=1062213#p1062213) I may try to make it out to Waldameer before the season is done. Thanks for sharing.
  8. I'm really looking forward to Kennywood in a couple weeks. Always wanted to get to those classic woodies...and this is awesome too.
  9. Mantis has OTSR's rather than Lap bars like on MF or ROS. Mantis holds you in at the shoulders.
  10. They've updated the website with the safety requirements too. http://godarienlake.com/rides/thrill-rides/
  11. Nice pics, and I can't believe how inexpensive the pizza was! Thanks for sharing.
  12. This is not the thread to read when on a diet.
  13. Definitely visit MFI after 5. I can't see spending more than 2 or 3 hours there. Just went this past Saturday evening and lines were mostly non existent.
  14. ^ I at least have to admire his determination.
  15. Good Lord! One of the best I've ever seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdqIp6Ckn9s
  16. And I'm on a diet too. Thanks Robb. http://themeparkreview.com/parks/pimages/Tokyo_Disneyland/The_Ultimate_TPR_Tokyo_Disneyland_Update/tokyo_disneyalnd2_040.jpg
  17. The isles are building up some serious talent. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SeWCNvdTcw
  18. After visiting Seabreeze, I made the trek across I-90 and met up with ClubTPR member DougMJr at Martin's Fantasy Island. If you visit after 5, admission is only 13 bucks. Great way to spend the end of a day. Pictures below. Biggest reason we are here. Silver Comet! It looks pretty impressive. At the top. Overall, the ride was running pretty well. It does throw you around a fair bit on the turns, and it was kinda rough near the end, but overall a very good woodie. The parks other coaster is a Zamperla "Spinning" Mouse. This one is definitely Elissa friendly. Basic layout. It's meant to spin during the second half of the ride, but it really doesn't spin much, if at all. Ferris wheel shot! Speaking of the Ferris Wheel. Just in case you forgot where you were. The parks Log Flume. I hear you do get pretty wet on this one. Pretty nice looking. At the top. The park also has a small Star Flyer. It may be smaller than the others, but it still delivers. It ran a long cycle and it was pretty fast as well. Ferris Wheel shot! Looks really nice. The parks Disco. Definitely gets right up to the edge. New craziness for 2011! This thing seriously looks insane. The Disco was enough spinning for me. The parks other new ride for this year is a Gravitron. We end the day and we see an ACEr taking a nap. Must have eaten too many of Fat Phil's chicken fingers. Overall, we enjoyed our time. Definitely a nice place to stop for the evening if you are visiting Darien Lake or Seabreeze. Thankfully the trip back across the border was only 5 minutes this time. Thanks for reading everyone. Please comment away!
  19. I've read some things about it on the forum about it, and seen some pictures. But it was definitely more fun than I imagined.
  20. Yesterday, I drove out to Seabreeze and Martin's Fantasy Island. I crossed the border at Queenston/Lewiston after a 1 hour wait, urghh. The good news is that was by far the longest time I spent in a line all day. I decided to use the NY-18 and the Ontario State Parkway to make my way to Rochester. It's a beautiful drive along the lake, through some small towns. Little to no traffic at all. I took nearly 200 pictures between both parks. Here are some of the better ones. Welcome to Seabreeze! First stop, the Bobsleds. Feel the Rhythm, Feel the Rhyme.... I've heard horror stories about this ride, but it wasn't bad at all. Next up was Whirlwind, the Maurer spinning coaster. Wheee! It spun quite a bit, but nothing really crazy. Pretty fun ride. Next up was the main attraction! Up the lift. Around the turn. They took the tunnel! This ride was running great! Great air in the front car, especially coming up the hill into the turn around. Log Flume. Didn't feel like getting wet today. It was pretty hot too, so the line was pretty long. Here they come! Skloooosh! Kiddie/Credit whore coaster. Wheee! Into the trench. Nice kiddie coaster. The park also had a Music Express. One of the better flats around. Sea Dragon. This one got up to a pretty good angle. Tilt-A-Whirl. Classic. Flyers. Another classic. Screamin' Eagle. I heard blood curdling screams coming from this thing. No thanks. YoYo was down for the count today. Seabreeze also has a pretty nice looking water park. Dan's worst nightmare. Very nice. What could this be? Gorgeous carousel! Organ sounded great. There were even rocking chairs in the pavilion if you wanted to watch, or just relax for a while. Absolutely beautiful. There were these historical pictures on display in the pavilion. Bobsleds. It was worth the effort. Whirlwind. Nice addition to the park. This one was posted over by Jack Rabbit. And that was Seabreeze. Finishing off with this. Interesting tidbit of info given a recent occurrence. Seabreeze is definitely a great park with charm. I'd definitely visit again. MFI pics to come.
  21. Thanks guys, it worked out well today. The carousel pavilion is incredible!
  22. Just caught up on this thread. The architecture in the Vatican is just incredible. And it's hilarious that all the little parks rip-off Disney! Great photo's!
