Can't wait! It's always so exciting to have (Club) TPR stuff in the mailing!

^ I definitely will, Cameron! Hugs and kisses

Another GREAT update, Matt! Keep it up, please! It makes my boring university classes much more enjoyable!

GREAT start for another Texas/Midwest trip report! Can't wait to read and see more! BTW: I like my Schlitterbahn LINK in your TR!

^NICE to hear! Yeah, I can do some more trip reports if you guys want to! I probably will go to Oktoberfest, so prepare for some German awesomeness! I visited the BIGGEST wine festival in the world (it's next to my village!). It's called Bad Dürkheimer Wurstmarkt! I will look through my photos and see if it's worth doing a report. As for now, I have only two more trip reports here on TPR.

Nice to see a report from TPR's Taiwan trip! I'm really excited about your updates! Asia seems to be a weird but amazing country! Marcel *I need to go to Asia* Strobel

^We only have ONE Expedition GeForce shirt and its design is really bad! It's such a good ride, but the shirts are bad! Shame on it!

^You're very welcome!

Thanks, Yin! I think you would be disappointed by Holiday Park's souvenir shops! We don't have that much merchandise If someone from Holiday Park is reading this, please get more AND better merchandise! And you're right, Yin! Hollister Jeans for only 20 bucks! That's crazy! They charge us 76 Euros (~ $100) here!

Thank you very much! I think I haven taken more than 3500 photos My TR consists of a small selection including more the funny pictures! My favorite food was at SDC Since I love Intamin, my favorite coaster was Top Thrill Dragster, I think. I loved the speed! Outlaw Run was EPIC as well!

All good things must come to an end. so does my trip report! It's our last day of theme parks in the states! Our last stop was Martin's Fantasy Island, a small park with three credits and the famous ''I GOT IT'' game!!! It was my first ''I GOT IT'' game EVER and I LOVED it! It was so much fun! Imagine our TPR gang playing ''I GOT IT'', that would be AMAZING! It's a pity that this game is kinda disappearing I'm happy about having had the chance to try it! It's really cool! So, all what we did that day was relaxing, walking around, getting three credits and playing ''I GOT IT'' We left the park in the afternoon because we wanted to do some shopping at the Niagara Falls Outlet Mall. When we got back to our hotel, Doug proposed to go to the cinema. So did we! There was nothing planned for that evening, so why not watching an American Movie! The next day (Saturday), Werner took his flight home, but I had one more day in the states (due to CHEAP airfare!) Doug was so kind to pick me up and go shopping with me! I mean, when being to the states, I have to do some shopping! Some brands are REALLY cheap here compared to European prices! Thanks for everything, Doug! The day after (Sunday), it was time to fly home! It was a real emotional moment, because I had such a GREAT time in the States! I have made so many new friends that I would miss! Sure, I missed my home, but I would have loved to stay longer! That was a bad feeling! Why can't there be a 365 days TPR trip? That would be super cool! Having arrived at home, I headed to my favorite Schnitzel restaurant! It was really cool to get some German food My mind was still with the American food! I'm really missing the States and my mind thinks about that good time every day! It's time to plan another trip to the states, so that I can do another marcelicious trip report I think! Be prepared to see some more TR from all my roller coaster adventures! Thanks for reading my TR! I appreciate it! Love you guys! Welcome to Martin's Fantasy Island! Get your tickets and have some fun! YAY! CREDITS! Please no photos! I'm too famous! Kiddy Coaster! Random booths! Slides! Second Credit! Comet time! Wood... More wood! YAY! I GOT IT TIME! Looks so unique! Let's win! I GOT IT! My souvenir from Martins Fantasy Island! More attractions! Walking time! I see a credit! Crazy tower! YAY! Third credit of that day! See ya! Werner and his lovely car key! And again! The MPS! (Marcelicious Personal System) YAY! Discounts! High fashion brands! The result of the day? I'm broke! It's time to fly home Sky! Plane TV! YAY! I'm almost home! It's ''Schnitzel'' time!

Another stressful day, but doing this trip report kinda cools me down, so let's start! After our RELAXING day in Toronto, we planned to visit Marineland and Niagara Falls the next day! YAY! 2 credits! Since EVERYBODY LOVES MARINELAND (TV Advertisment), we HAD to go there When we entered the parking lot (it was for free! YAY!) there were quite a few cars, but when we entered the park we wondered where all the people were gone?! We soon noticed where! The LONG walking distances from one attraction to another attraction were the reason why all the people spread out in the park! The admission for the park was WAY to expensive (almost $50!) and in my opinion it was not really worth visiting it (besides the CREDITS! ). For those of you who don't know, Marineland is a kind of combination of an amusement and water animal park. I had the impression that all the animals didn't like hanging out in the park! They seemed to be really sad. I don't know if it was the atmosphere (2 days before we were leaving the states for home), but the park didn't convince me! Nevertheless we made the best out of it and did some credit whoring before we went to Niagara Falls, a MUCH better place Niagara Falls were impressive and it's definitely a PHOTO WHORE paradise Everybody is photo whoring, wherever you look That was really funny to look at! So, what else should I say but telling you guys that Niagara Falls is some water falling down the cliffs? It's really nice to look at! But doing holiday at Niagara Falls for more than 1 day would definitely not be my favorite! You come there, look at it, take some photos and you leave that place! Doug met us at the falls and we took him back with our car to the states! Crossing the border was fun! An American car from PA with a Dutch, German AND American boy in it! Where do you guys know from? Our answer was simple...THEME PARK REVIEW! TPR connects the world, man! That being said, take the boat to Marineland and get all the way down to the Falls where masses of water are waiting for you! Nice group photo! Little Werner was just dazzled by the sun! Everybody loves...MARINELAND! Long Long way... YAY! We're inside the park! Man, those paths look ENDLESS! Passing some kiddie flat rides, before it's... ...CREDIT WHORE TIME! CREDITS CREDITS CREDITS! Poor animals living in those pools...The ocean is their REAL pool, guys! More flat rides...and... ...more poor animals! Dolphins are so cute! At least those birds are FREE! Sea bears! I don't want to be eaten by them! They looked scary! Just look! Another credit! We should try it! Please enter the dragon's home! It was smoother than expected! Goodbye Marineland! We took our boat to... ...Niagara Falls Pier! Nice flair! Looks like Vegas! Some nice flat rides! The main thing is they can make money! Hey guys, what's up??? LOOK! We're coming closer to the falls! The main reason why we got here! LOOK! There's is our boat! Right on my shoulder! Hello! I'm your Niagara Falls tour guide! Follow me! Here you can see a panorama photo taken with my iPhone 5! WATER! Hey guys! Those falls are wet! Fun with Doug who met us at the Falls! More nice photos! I recommend NOT jumping in! Photo whore time! More photo whore time! Niagara Falls observation tower! After that ''flop'' of CN Tower we decided NOT to get on this one Crossing the border was FUN! :D

Thank you, guys! You're more than welcome! I love reading your comments! ^Haha Yeah, now I have to come back to see more Cedar Fair parks! Hopefully, next year! There are so many other places to explore over there!

^ awesome! That was exactly my purpose! Entertaining my TPR family

No edge walk, Andrew! It was way too expensive!

Being at university can be VERY boring! Why not doing another trip update? It's time for some sightseeing! No coasters, no thrills, no parks. Only sightseeing! Those were our plans for TORONTO! After we conquered the Toronto traffic jungle (Thanks to MPS ), we started exploring the city! We did some typical things like the CN Tower (I didn't like it too much, it was way too crowded!) or Toronto's Eaton Center (BIG shopping mall). It was a relaxing day! Not too much stress! Just relaxing and walking around! All that good stuff you do when being downtown! I rather show you some photos than explaining all the stuff we did in that city. I don't want to bother you with too many information Are you ready to conquer Toronto? If yes, go ahead! If not and you would like to know all that historical stuff about the city, leave the TR and get some more information about Canada and come back! See ya guys! More photo whore time! Photo shoot! First stop this morning: WALMART! I need some candies! Oh wow! Feels like being in Europe! Marcel *LOVES* IKEA! Hooray! We made it to Toronto! BIG city life! Plan of the day: Do the CN Tower! Looks BIG! Welcome to the CN Tower! It was way too crowed! Not only in the entrance area... This would have been paradise for YIN! Merchandise! Ready for the elevator ride? We had a really nice view! Everyone took the same photos up there! Toronto! More Toronto! Yup, that's Toronto! Water! More water! Scenic view! Looks pretty nice! It was TOO crowded! Couldn't enjoy it! I don't know how many feet we're in the air! SMALL Glass Floor! It's windy here! Time to leave the tower! It's photo whore time! Skyscrapers... ...and more skyscrapers! LOOK! I have my own restaurant in Canada! Eatons shopping mall! Random houses! Hard Rock Café Time! Werner got his Hard Rock Café Credit! Looks nice! Food was awesome! Walking back to our car... ...passing some nice houses... ...and stores... ...and town halls... ...AND skyscrapers! Welcome to the hipster district! Random shots! More random shots! Goodbye Toronto!

25 days Do you want to do a Europe Trip or a North America Trip as well? It will be cheaper for you because you don't have to pay for underage driving

It was about 5 or 6k (including airfare!)

^It was definitely a challenge! I was surprised that it hasn't been that difficult as I've expected it to be! Just search the place where you want to go and see which roads are going there I'm happy we found all the places where we wanted to go! And we conquered the Toronto City jungle

@ _koppen: I have been there with other TPR members as well! What a pity we haven't met each other!

It's time for some more Cedar Fair goodness, because the day after having crossed the border, Werner and I went to Canada's Wonderland! (Oh Canada ) Yup, we wanted to explore CANADA! Crossing the border was not a big issue, but the GPS became a BIG one Since Werner bought a GPS (valid for the US AND Canada) and he was told that it worked in Canada, we found out that it didn't work in Canada That's why we bought an old school map and the MPS (the Marcelicious Positioning System lol) made us find our hotel for the next 2 nights! Canada's Wonderland was fun and I had the impression that it was not that kind of typical Cedar Fair Park like Cedar Point! I mean it was busy etc, but it was not that stressful and loud as Cedar Point (IMO). It was different. Nevertheless we had to get some credits (NOT the kiddy coaster )!. That's why we pre ordered Fast Lane PLUS! Without Fast Lane Plus we would not have gotten all the credits! Definitely worth it! Leviathan is definitely a FUN coaster (it looks faster than it is!) and Behemoth as well, BUT Shambhala in Spain is better We met Carmine (who also did the Texas/Midwest trip), so we spent the day together! (Thanks for the souvenir discount!) Canada's Wonderland sold almost ALL their hoodies, because it suddenly became really windy! We just needed a hoodie so we decided to buy one! Many others did the same They made a lot of money that day I think! With that being said...enjoy your ride! Next update will be from TORONTO! Crossing the border to Canada! YAY! We're in Canada! First get some sleep, before we're heading to... CANADA's Wonderland! Mhhh, looks good! YAY! It's operating Here we go! Seems to be busy! Thank god we have Fast Lane Plus! Souvenir shot! Our credit run starts! Nature and coasters! Q's Q's Q's... The food was actually really good! LEVIATHAN! Unique flat ride! Behemoth! The Q was INSANE, but... ...we had FAST LANE PLUS! My first Stunt Coaster without ANY working effects Can't wait to ride the coaster! All clear?! Welcome back riders! How was your riiiide? Leviathan? This way! Oh no! A Boomerang... ...AND an Arrow ride! Nice themed souvenir shop! Souvenir shops often mark the end of a day... It's time to leave Canada's Wonderland!

^Sadly not. I'm sorry.

Sorry for the delayed updates, guys! University started again, so I kinda got busy! Nevertheless, my report about my US trip continues! This time, it's Darien Lake and Seabreeze I'm reporting about! Werner and me went to Darien Lake in the morning and somewhen during afternoon we left for Seabreeze! It's definitely doable to do those parks in one day. We didn't have any problems though. Darien Lake was definitely NOT the best park on the after trip I didn't like its coasters, so I was happy when we got all the credits... I'm sure this park only knows one train operations, but Q's were not too bad Since Moto Coaster had some issues and Predator opened at 1:30 pm, we had to wait to get all those credits. After that little credit run, we decided to leave for the much nicer park Seabreeze! I loved that little park. As I've already explained in one of my other trip updates, I really LOVE those nice little American parks. The atmosphere is just amazing Unfortunately, no kid wanted to ride the kiddy coaster with me (They wanted to ride ALONE, without any adult!), I didn't get that credit (I didn't get the kiddy at Darien Lake neither!). I loved the ''Bobsled'' coaster! It was really fun The park had two more coasters, the woodie (really rideable!) and the spinning coaster (meh...). After our stay at Seabreeze, we had to go on the road again, because we had to go on a multiple hour drive to Canada! Oh Canada With that being said, have FUN watching my photos! Thanks to CLUB TPR, we got a discount! Club TPR rocks! Welcome to Darien Lake! Are you ready to get your mind erased? OMG. What am I doing? Oh man, this looks like PAIN! And that park doesn't seem to have a coaster that does NOT try to kill you... Oh man, look at that CRAZY Arrow element! The Moto Coaster had some issues, but it opened later that day! C'mon! The park seems to LOVE... Ride of Steel...I hated the restraints... More Intamin....(badness???) Could this be one of the next RMC projects? It would be nice! ...PAIN Goodbye Darien Lake! We're on our way to... ...Seabreeze! Welcome to Seabreeze! Woodie Woodie Woodie! We loved the Bobsleds!!! Let's end that update with some useless credit whore photo! SO much fun!

^The drop tower was fun! Not frightening

Hey guys! I'm back! New day, new report! It was time to say goodbye to TPR and Cedar Point and start the private after trip! Douglas was so kind to take Werner and me back to his home town Buffalo where we picked up our rental car for the trip! Since Waldameer and Conneaut Lake were on our route, we stopped at those parks and did some credit run there! Thank you very much Doug for doing that shuttle service! We appreciated it a lot! BTW: Kevin joined us as well for the drive back to Buffalo! Conneaut Lake wasn't the nicest place I've been to, but there was a credit So no time to cry and no more words about the park The next stop was Waldameer with its AMAZING Ravine Flyer II! I liked that park very much, because its atmosphere was really nice! Not that kind of busy, crowded atmosphere like it was at Cedar Point. It was really kind of old school! I love those ''nostalgic American parks' because you don't find them here in Germany. IMO, the atmosphere is really American at all the little parks in the states! We met Colin at the park! It was a nice little surprise to see him there after he did the TPR trip as well After some hours at the park, it was time to leave and drive to Buffalo! Our rental car was waiting for us! As always...Enjoy your ride and my photos Goodbye Cedar Point! The bus is already ready to drop us off at the Cleveland airport! Doug offered us a drive from Cleveland to Buffalo! Thanks, buddy! One of the crappiest and scariest places I've been to! Could be a house in a horror movie! Are you ready to ride Blue Streak? Welcome back riders! Tumble bugs! Not for me Sadly out of service Let's get outta here! On our way to... Wristbands!!! ...Waldameer!!! The nicest kiddy coaster I've seen! Right in the middle of a small pool! Woodie goodness! Strange place... Arrrrrrr..... Time for free falling! I only see the color green! Hey guys! Are you enjoying the cable cars? Nice setting! Welcome to Conneaut Lake!
