BuddyChrist Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 Afternoon Toro Sun tried to interfere Crooked shot It's on fire! I finally got a good shot of it in the turnaround Don't fight it Two Tigers enter Over in GK I got some shots of Toro To the next half! Speeding to the finish They opened the other side later on Prepare yourselves Goodbye Back already? The Magic Schoolbus Sun kinda messed this one up Journeying into the Jungle What awaits us?

BuddyChrist Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 Toro on your right Ka on your left The other Kingda Ka in the park And his brother Just a big kitty Chasing after a toy Decisions, decsions Mine! Tigers are my favorite animal He's coming right for us! I got splashed from this Water Water everywhere Ka rises above the jungle Nitro through the trees Movietown still wasn't crowded This is what kept me from blacking out after the first loop today At least it's not Vekoma This is the purpose of Movietown The line for the Skyway was long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyChrist Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 On the skyride This reminds me of RCT for some reason Wasn't really crowded Looking towards Movietown Ka with Schoolbus flying down the hill Our two latest coasters And one of our older installations The sun was starting to set Allowing for some nice lighting on Toro's wood Fire the cannon! Chiller with the sun behind it I've been told that it was it's last day with 5 cars Nitro still going strong The sun also behind them Skull Mountain looks angry, better feed it more children I don't know why this came out so dark This came out well though As did this I attempted this shot again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyChrist Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 Why don't they have a Superman? you're leaving? Its only 7:45! 15 Minutes are left to ride! See? even Scream Machine is still going with very few people And Twister Was going on the parachutes, but couldn't take my camera with me. En route to Ka for the last ride of the night Ready to launch one of the last trains of the night The sun has set And made for good pictures I take on last stroll across the park Goodnight Skyline Thanks for reading and looking at this large amount of photo-age!

Wes Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Nice shots. Have you thought about compiling your TR's into one thread, sort of like how Jahan does the SFMM Updates? If you're going to be doing one of these every two days, it probably make more sense to keep them in one thread versus posting new threads every time.

BuddyChrist Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 I've thought about but I'm not sure how many times I'll be visiting the park when I get more hours at work. I got lucky this past week as I had a lot of time off and nothing to do. I wish I could just merge these three trip together, I wasn't really planning on two out of the three.

Wes Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I can merge the three threads together for you, if you'd like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuddyChrist Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 Thanks! Could you just make the title with the 3 dates 6/14, 6/16/ and 6/18. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Jack Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Another awesome trip report...and I'm especially loving the updates on Chiller. I'm sure your sources are pretty right about the switch from 5 trains to four standard on both sides, but looking at the pictures, it looks like Robin's train has silver dots running along its side and Batman has all black dots. It's not a big deal to me and I'm sure it's not to anyone else, as long as the thing is running again, but I mean if you look really closely, it doesn't even look like the size of the dots match up right. Also, the last car (3rd car) on Batman's side doesn't look complete, it's probably just the cover going over the seats in the back of the car hasn't been added yet, but I really don't know if the last car from Robin would be the perfect fit for the Batman train. I'm just hoping that the main guts of the two trains are near identical enough to work out by taking one off Robin. As long as it runs again (and doesn't have more problems than it has in its 9 years of existence)... ...and the Airplane! reference with the tiger...very nice!

gk Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Nice TRs. I was there with my daughter on 6/18, we had a good time. We ended up stopped for an hour on I-195 with the accident only to have to turn around, and then had to try to find my way to the park without a map or any knowledge of the area at all. Fortunately we made it by 10:30. ERT would have been nice - but El Toro and I didn't get along anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyChrist Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 That accident was bad from what I hear. Fortunately I was close enough to the exit that I could pull over to the shoulder and go to the exit. ERT was amazing, I can't wait to do it again, next time with Ka though!
