Imagine if they offered a beer as a lunch/dinner option. Dining pass would probably need to be $50 higher though. Or Season-Long-Beer-Tab? -
Was just at the park yesterday. The coaster was bare and the only things you could see other then darkness was the guard-rails around the track. The ride was shockingly bad without the theming. Just pure boredom. I understand maintenance has to be done. But to rip the theming out in the school holiday confuses me. Maybe a re-theming coming? VR Maybe? Also odd cause there's a new Scooby Doo movie coming out.

Oh. Another tip is that most Europeans tend to ride in the front row for their coasters. Also the parks extend hours if the park is really busy.

I'm afraid this is something that does not exist. I was just hoping there was gonna be some ice cream. I'm past the phase of all Whipped Cream in my life. -
Suggestions based on a recent podcast who went to Europa, Holiday, and Phantasia: Do the 1/2 day at Holiday Park and 2 full days at Europa. Stay at El Andaluz at Europa Park (Monorail stop to the park, Hotel entrance to the park, Free Breakfast) Stay at Hotel Ling Bao at Phantasialand (You get 2 skip-the-line passes per person) Except for Europa Park, Many don't accept Credit Cards and speak English FoodLoop at Europa Park serves alot of American Food Silver Star requires 5 clicks while as most B&M hypers require 3 If you don't like spinning ride in the first car of Euro Mir Also Europa is pretty big, The lake at Adventureland in Europa is larger than SeaWorld Orlando's lake. To go from Wodan to Blue Fire is about an 8min walk Holiday Park is about the size of Waldameer Loved Rides: - Arthur (Europa) - Mouse Au Chocolate (Phantasialand) - Chiapas (Phantasialand) - Feng Ju Palace (Phantasialand) - Castle Falkenstein (Holiday Park) - Hollywood Tour (Phantasialand) - Pirates in Batvaria (Europa) - Universe Of Energy (Europa)

Theme parks without coasters

Chicago Funhouse Maze was awesome in 2004. Do Waterparks count? Cause I remember having fun at Magic Waters in Rockford. And while not a park, I did enjoy Lexington Ice & Mini Golf. $10 for unlimited Mini-Golf -

Leave it to Japan to fix everyone's mistakes! Unless your Fuji-Q where their job is to take every mistake and make then worse. I'm guessing as I've never been to Fuji-Q or Japan. -

I think they could possibly try and pull off 'World's first fully wooden launch coaster,' and argue that Lightning Rod has too much steel to count as a woodie. If it goes 50mph+, It can claim to be UK's fastest wooden coaster -

As a Dining-Pass-Or-Not-Eating Favorite - Six Below at SFGAm, Frozen Yogurt. Least Favorite - Snickers Funnel Cake. Too little Snickers and WAY too much Whipped Cream -
