  1. It looks like you have a good few days! Nice reports, thanks for sharing
  2. I was at an event at an ex military base a few weeks ago that had a 9000 foot runway where people were trying to max their cars. Most broke 200mph so even though they're not necessarily hitting their theoretical max, at that speed I'm not sure they cared!
  3. I'm watching Dolly Parton's set from Glastonbury this weekend, she's still got it!
  4. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=19256 There you go Can't wait to see the photos! For future reference we have a great post that indexes our discussion threads: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1237864#p1237864 Thanks
  5. I need to go to Vegas soon!! I have friends out there in October, I've told them to go and report back! Looks awesome Shane, all the best in these hectic times before and after opening
  6. ^ The memories come flooding back! That definitely falls into the category of "Food Mixer: the ride!"
  7. ^Ha! I just remember riding and thinking "what exactly just happened?!" I can't imagine it's a cheap upgrade either so I'm not surprised it didn't sell!
  8. Nice! Looks like you had a decent trip (and a perplexing LAX experience!). Can't wait to see more.
  9. Correct!! In my defence I had been awake for 40 hours when I posted this
  10. We are live tweeting the entire trip! Follow us on Twitter @themeparkreview Today the group headed out to Denmark to visit Legoland Billund, here's how they got on... Today we are at the Legoland HQ! Starting off our morning at Legoland Billund on Polar X-Plorer! Polar X-Plorer was FANTASTIC! I really hope the other Legoland parks get a version of this ride! KidTums LOVED Polar X-Plorer Legoland Billund. Polar X-Plorer was better that a lot of big rides at big parks...and this is at Legoland! Guess what? LEGO BUTT!!! Don't under estimate the Legoland parks! They do theming and family attractions VERY well! TPR absolutely loved Polar X-Plorer at Legoland Billund! Checking out "Ghost" ... The new "Haunted House for kids" at Legoland Billund. It was cute! TPR Takeover on the Legoland Billund Fire Academy. This is seriously one of my favorite rides ever! [vine] [/vine]TPR takes over the Fire Academy at Legoland Billund! (Or TPR finally gets some exercise!) Had to take another ride on Polar X-Plorer at Legoland Billund! Love this ride! A staple at most of the Legoland parks is the Mack Wild Mouse coaster. For the first time the American themed ice cream is NOT the largest one! Visited Legoland's Sea Life and Garbles tried to catch a fish! Legoland Billund's MiniLand is surrounded by a train and monorail ride. Round two of TPR's Fire Academy take over! Legoland Billund's rapids ride is one of the few with a vertical lift and a giant drop! And let's not forget the best thing about Legoland parks... All the awesome Legos!!! Rapids ride Lego theming! EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!!! At Legoland Billund! [vine] [/vine]TPR loves Polar X-Plorer at Legoland Billund! The "Lego Princess" look really fits @rctneil's personality! KidTums found one of her Lego "Friends!" Lego @ScottsPizzaTour! Legoland is just a little too intense for some people... TPR Members pumping hard to put out the fire! Legoland Billund's shooting dark ride is more of an Omnimover system compared to the US parks. Yes, we are playing with Legos. Yes, we are mentally ten years old! Lego Star Wars in Mini Land at Legoland Billund! I love the Mini Land section of Legoland parks. You can spend hours in here! Oil Rigs and cranes as part of Mini Land at Legoland Billund. There is even an America section at Legoland Billund's Mini Land. Oh, Thad is a natural when it comes to this Lego look! Jungle Racers is one of my favorite Legoland staple attractions! The most action Garbles is going to get... EVER!!! We selected the craziest options for the indoor RoboCoaster! Yes, of course we chose option 69! (Who wouldn't???) They have ten RoboCoaster arms at the Ice Pilots attraction at Legoland Billund. Lego donkey!!! TPR approved! It was a totally awesome day, and of course it was because when you're at Legoland "Everything is AWESOME!!!"
  11. Yeah I think you might be OK!
  12. I just looked up the result, I think you might be right!!
  13. I'm glad you had a good trip! You can always start writing your TR now and use the "Save Draft" feature to spread the work and then start posting them once the Scandi trip finishes It'll be good to see everything when you post it
  14. Such an unbelievably beautiful park! I love how integrated it is with the city as well, there is a fantastic vibe just walking around the place. It looks like it's still on top form, so much jealousy going on right now!
  15. We are live tweeting the entire trip! Follow us on Twitter @themeparkreview Today the group visited Tivoli Gardens and had a BLAST! Check it out below: TPR is at Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen today! One of the most beautiful parks in the world! Starting our visit at Tivoli with some ERT on Daemonen! [vine] [/vine]Currently in Tivoli having a pizza and drink. Setting of this park is just beautiful. We were treated to an AMAZING backstage tour of the recently restored, 100-year old Rutchebanen wooden rollercoaster! Our backstage Rutchebanen tour included to maintenance room. Jakob is an AWESOME tour guide! Then we got to do something super awesome! We boarded the coaster halfway through the track! HALF CREDIT!!! The restored mountain peaks on Tivoli's Rutchebanen Scenic Railway look amazing! It was time to ride Rutchebanen for real! This classic roller coaster is 100 years old this year! Love this classic wood coaster! Kudos to Tivoli for keeping this going for 100 years! ERT and a backstage tour of Rutchebanen at Tivoli Gardens was a great start to an awesome day! The Rutchebanen brakemen show us how THEY ride the roller coaster! (Please don't try this at home!) Elissa, KidTums and Rutchebanen brakeman selfie! Gotta love Europe! Nice to see other countries aren't as uptight about sex as America is. I think with all the happy faces you can say that TPR absolutely loved Rutchebanen at Tivoli. There are VERY few coasters left in the world manually braked by a brakeman. We think @rctneil is pretty sexy. He's a cool guy & would love to meet a nice girl (we think.) Tweet if interested! Who thinks KidTums should grow up to be a brake woman? After our Rutchebanen ERT we all headed over to "Plane on a Stick." Plane on a Stick aka "Vertigo" is one of the most intense rides ever created! It pulls 5Gs for about 30 seconds! Plane on a Stick twists and turns in crazy directions and then does high speed loops pulling 5Gs! Plane on a Stick is not for the weak at heart! (It's for the mentally crazy!!!) And why is it called Tivoli Gardens? Well, yes, there are gardens! And they are beautiful! The entire park has such a cool, European feel to it. (And yes, we know that's because it's in Europe!) And they certainly do love boobs here! Can't fault them for that! You would never guess waking around this park that it's right in the middle of a big city like Copenhagen. Looking at Tivoli upside down from Plane on a Stick! Here's another awesome Plane on a Stick photo and this one features television star @rctneil!!! Plane on a Stick also did this to us... Everything about Tivoli Gardens is so picturesque. There is no park in America that looks anything like it. Tivoli's dark ride tells the stories of Hans Christian Andersen. Yes, including "The Snow Queen." #Frozen The Tivoli version of The Little Mermaid. (Sans two seashells) This is the Tivoli version of Anna, Sven, and Kristof! It's Queen Elsa... The Snow Queen! [vine] [/vine]Look! It's the REAL version of Frozen! Hans Christian Andersen dark ride at Tivoli Gardens. Garbles is having a small sized ice cream cone! Taking more rides on Tivoli's Scenic Railway because it's awesome fun! Jakob sporting a #TPRScandi Tour shirt! He's one of us now! Just another great day here at Tivoli Gardens! Tivoli Gardens Brakeman Cam!!! Awesome POV shot of Tivoli Gardens' Damonen! Tivoli Gardens as seen from Plane on a Stick! POV of the Scenic Railway! (Goat also included...) Tivoli Gardens is famous for it's incredible lightning at night. Oooooh! It's the lights of Tivoli!!! Goodnight Tivoli Gardens! We had an absolutely amazing day! Words cannot describe what a great day we all had at Tivoli Gardens! Thank you for a memorable visit!
  16. This is great news! It's good to see them planning for the future. We need one of these in the UK! Alan, do your thing
  17. I'm glad to see this park (and the rides) still kick ass! Looks like everyone really enjoyed it
  18. Great report! Love the Daft Punk shirt BTW I love Power Park, the hotels were great and the grand prix was one of my more memorable TPR trip moments!!
  19. Yup, I don't think England have more than 3 games so I'll be making the most of them!
  20. ^ Yeah, I don't think I've ridden it in 10 years! Adds a nice element to the area though.
