simlesa Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Another fine day at Mt. Olympus, plus Riverview and Timber Falls. Avalanche was running very good even though they had to switch to manual operation due to thunderstorms the day before. --Luko Can't believe they went to play mini-golf with Avalanche right next to them. Behind the scenes look of trip updates from the hotel lobby. This looks like our hotel for tonight! It's all about Brian day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosscoe Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Would it be wrong of me to ask to see Terrance in speedos instead of Barry H ? You had to be at Gay Days @ Disney to see that! I was hanging out with major gay porn stars so I had to keep up! Well in that case can i see those pictures! Robb, once again thanks for all the updates, pictures, videos and everything else. Great stuff as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mike Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 JimmyBo - Fantastic job so far with your Midwest Trip report! That was the best pic of the trip so far. ^5s go out to Cameron, Mel, and Rich for crashing the party. * May have to bring the Retarded Yellow Chicken Club to court over copyright infringement.

ginzo Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 FASCINATION!?!?! That's it... I am going to Indiana Beach first chance I get. My mom LOVED that game. I can still remember the best prize I ever got. It was a Raggedy Ann and Andy stoneware 3 piece place setting. I think there's still a plate somewhere from it. I had no idea anyone still had a Fascination parlor. "It's California bingo, FASCINATION". That's what the "caller" used to say at LeSourdesville/Americana. It looks like you had a great time and that Kristen's holding up well. As for her dad seeing penquins, though, I am concerned. Shari Fascination is the most retardedly addicting game ever. FYI, Knoebels also still has a Fascination parlor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginzo Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Hahahahaha. Your mom is "sleep posting" on Ambien. Brilliant. Actually Bryan is telling the truth. You'll find out the how and why later. Be patient and don't give him a hard time about it. Terry Actually, I totally believe him. Ambien is supposedly causing a wave of "sleep driving" across the country. If that's true, then "sleep posting" is certainly possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larrygator Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Since getting not only bitched out on the phone, but now bitched out in here, I removed that part from my post. Sorry.

DerekRx Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Does anyone remember when people would go away on trips and you wouldn't hear or see anything until they got back or a postcard arrived?? If you want to specifically see your significant other/child/parent/neighbor on their trip, there are 2 very easy options: 1. Buy them a laptop, wifi card, digital camera, etc and tell them that instead of having fun, they need to post on the internet every night. 2. I will be starting a service where for the cost of the trip, I will follow your particular person around the park constantly and take photos and videos of them. And for an extra $2500, I will have it all uploaded on the internet in Real Time format, so you can see everything the moment it happens. If you don't like either of those options, then just calm down and wait patiently for them to get home and share everything with you, and keep checking ThemeParkReview when Robb graciously spends HIS free time uploading a brief amount of pictures of the day as a whole generalizing what everyone did that day. Who knows, maybe your precious will have a starring role in at least one picture that day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shesaidboom Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Wow, people who like Lost Coaster!! I've heard nothing but horrible things about it from everyone, but I loved it! Glad to see I'm not the only one. Those chicken hats are the best ever. I hope they're planning to make another appearance on the trip..or several. It looks like you guys are all having an amazing time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatorchomp83 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I LOVED Lost Coaster when I was there back in May! It was so ridiculous that it was awesome! In fact, I pretty much loved everything about Indiana Beach. Please tell me ya'll did Frankenstein's Castle..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missingmusician Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Okay, since I'm getting it from all ends here let me make one, last, attempt at trying to clear myself here. I'll just sit around and read the TR's silently from now on. I was never in any way, shape or form trying to tell anyone to do anything differently. I was not spiteful or angry. It was a statement. A misstated statement, but a statement nonetheless. I was saying what everyone already knows, which is that Robb's group is the group that gets in the initial TR. It's not a deal. My boyfriend's got a camera, and he's got a laptop. He spends what time talking on the phone with me that he can. I don't tell him "stop hanging out with people to talk to me". I say "Call me when you have a chance". I'm not trying to ruin his trip. You all, surely, understand that when someone you care about is away and you have the opportunity to see pictures from their expeditions that you will want to see pictures of them. All I was saying was that he's my boyfriend and that I would like to see pictures of him. And that because he's my boyfriend, of course I'm going to feel that way. Just like any boyfriend/girlfriend/wife/husband/mother/father/godparent/guardian or anything like that would feel about their respected relation. My point was that anyone on here who knows/loves/whatever someone that's on the trip is looking for pictures of that person. Period. I wasn't complaining. I wasn't bitching. It's impossible to have a semi-inclusive, quick Trip Report (posted at 2 in the morning by a guy who's put hours and hours into putting a trip together and is just as exhausted at the end of the day as the people on the trip) that includes pictures of 100 different people. That'd be sifting through hundreds of pictures every day and would be very much an unfair thing to expect, which is what everyone is saying and what I have always been in agreement with. What really sucks about all this is that my boyfriend is getting crap for what I posted when it wasn't even what I meant, so take it out on me, not him. Okay, I've said my peace. I'm done on this subject. If you want to gripe at me or whatever, do what you have to do, but I wanted to clarify. /Rant Robbie "I just need to keep my big mouth shut sometimes" Simmons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryH Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 How about seeing some other faces in these pictures. It is the same 10 people in every one. There are 90 other people there-walk around with the camera! Getting sick of seeing the same people with their legs up-hugging in mascots and eating. Who else is there???? Oh. My. God. It's worse than I thought it would be. For the people not on the trip, this wasn't my post. This post (quoted above) was my mother under my username. Sssssssssssssssssuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeee...blame it on your mom! Next thing you know, your dog will eat your homework. Kidding...it happens. I know people who share computers and they post under their roommate's username all the time on different message boards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I was saying what everyone already knows, which is that Robb's group is the group that gets in the initial TR. I think you should know that Robb collects photos from the other trip participants, he has a reader for all sorts of different cards. If you want your boyfriend to be seen, just tell him to donate his (or the people with whom he is hanging with) photos and there will be a better chance a photo of him may pop up. Of course, its not guaranteed, especially if Hanno is on the trip and donating thousands of photos again and booooooo! I was only in like 3 or 4 photos on the Germany trip!

spaceace12 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 1. Keep the updates coming, I don't care who are in them, I like to see them. 2. At IB, I didn't think cameras were allowed on coasters, because I had seen a sign at all the coasters saying there weren't. Or was it allowed because you had special permission. 3. If all photo TR's from previous trips didn't do it, these def. made me want to go on a trip sometime. The texas trip sounds like the most affordable one, if you do it. I wish I could have meet up at IB or HW, looks like you all had fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek, I would like to personally apply to be your first employee, and if I buy her a camera, Samantha will work for slightly less (kids admission prices, after all) as well.
