Robb & Elissa's Big Gay New York City Trip!
Fran1962 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was VERY VERY VERY HAPPY! -
Thanks for the Great TR. I love seeing the European Parks, especially Phantasialand, open in the winter, NOW there's a concept that has yet to catch on here in the states. I would LOVE to ride coasters with winter clothes on, they would give a little extra padding for some of the rought ones, ie Coney Island Cyclone. Sad to say there ar no more Automats in NYC, Horn & Hardart held on as long as they could but they went out of business in the early '90's if not before. There was a new concept one on St. Mark's Place for a short time that sold snacks and finger food but even that didn't last long. I also remember visiting the Old Skool type when I was a kid, they had a wonderful beverage dispensor with a Dolphin head spigot.

TPR's Ever Evolving Park Index

Works great for a tech dummy like me. Was using the Park Index quite extensively the last two days (I'm on a mini coaster trip) and really like the upgrade!! -

PTR: GADV 10/15
Fran1962 replied to Speeddeamon128's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Sounds like a great day at the park and a great way to end the season. I kinda like the show, just to see the parks and stuff, Bert himself can get kind of infantile but you don't have to be a genius to have fun at the parks. A few years ago the Discovery Channel did a show on the Top 5 Wooden and Steel coasters across the country. The Cyclone at Coney Island was being spotlighted and I got to ride all day, they even fed us lunch at Nathan's. When the show finally aired I got to see a great shot of the back of my neck. The only reason I recognized myself was from the shirt I was wearing that day. I get much better facetime with TPR!!!!!! -
