Wait... Fanta Melon?

 

We have Fanta Melon here and it's not green O.o odd.

[miniviews]

^^ I agree with Dave on Circus Musical!!!

 

Presently, all parks we visited were empty except for Universal Studios Japan. What made the crowds at USJ great was the atmosphere -- and the fun we were having with the Japanese. Another plus of USJ, stuff works. Anyway, I better get back to exploring Nagoya ... I`m in an Internet Comic Cafe in Sakae sitting on my bottom with weird vending machines around the corner. Anyone up for some cosplay pictures?

Awesome update! We need some more looping Maurer Söhne coasters, Venus looks great. Thanks for posting these updates.

[disneygurlz2s]

I definitely think if I can ever go anywhere oversees, Japan will be my first choice. It just looks so interesting and bizarre all at once.

 

Now, the mother hen in me is concerned, though...what happened to Kristin's nose? Did she get stung by the Giant Bee mascot or something?

 

Continued great travels...love the updates!

I am so craving a frozen Fanta Melon now! And I thought I had gotten my fix last month at the World of Coke! Anyways, you guys seem to be having another great trip! You all have fun!

[coastercrazed49]

Those new colors on the roller coasters looks really nice. I think the new yellow paint on Titan looks the best.

 

BTW Great TR

[PKI Jizzman]

I really want some of that Fanta Melon. The newly repainted rides look great!

[Team Thriller]

Wow, that park looks really nice. I've heard a lot of things about it. They all look wrong.

 

Great pics!

[vagabunda]

nice, i want to go so badly!!!!

[krouvi]

Fanta Melon is nice to to try once or twice but it is nothing you will drink everyday.

I live in Israel and surprisingly we have it here and it's pretty much like crap. However we have Fanta Grapefruit which is really great.

[CoasterBill04]

The photos look great!! Hope everyone is enjoying themselves in Japan. For those of you who are on the trip, I can't wait to meet you all this coming Weds., no matter what the plans are.

[thomas2]

Venus GP looks good. It's very long.

 

Awesome update! Now go ride Steel Dragon 2000!

[twistedmickey]

INFLATABLE WINGS!!!! Those freaking rock. If Disney every needed to replace Tink they know who to ask. Thanks for the pics. I am glad you guys are having such a great time. No I am not jealous. I promise.

[noyzz]

Killer pics guys! Thanx Robb!!!! I have a question though, did Venus get new trains? They look different from before?

 

Keep on happy coastering!

[SigENeaT]

[Chrissie]

Glad you guys are having an awesome-o time. Sooooooooo Looking forward to Disney!!

[WDWliker]

Man that is a great trip.

If I went, I would make a lot of Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo (Anime) refrences on the trip

[zaneymon]

mmmmmmmmmmmm Fanta melon.

[gotdane]

Space World looks awesome! I definitely enjoyed the pics from this park the most!

 

*Cant wait to see the Human Hamster Ball pics!*

[Rollertoaster]

It looks like Ryan has a "banana blaster"!

[Airtime&Gravity]

Wow, Space World looks a lot different than your previous visit(maybe it's the new paint jobs, and Zaturn, besides having a cool name, looks like the best of the KK/Stealth trio. Looks like you are having a lot of fun, and the parks seem good so far.

[TexTitan01]

Space World looks awesome! I definitely enjoyed the pics from this park the most!

 

*Cant wait to see the Human Hamster Ball pics!*

I disagree, man, that's jsut your opinion. I used to dirnk Fanta Melon whenever I could and I'm not ta tbig a fan of grapefruit, but fi you read what I'm saying you'd notice that the fanta melon Robb's holding is green, the one over here is another color.

[Chadley]

Other than the Intamin rocket, have there been any other major changes to Space World since the last Japan trip? The park looks a lot nicer, cleaner, and more colorful than when you went last year. Me and my 7 yr. old are both sitting here saying, "I want to go to Japan!".

 

Zaturn looks pretty sweet! Did Venus get new paint?

[Admiral_Ackbar6]

OMG, they painted Titan yellow! I had a season pass there in 2005. Last time I went, though, they wouldn't let me on Zupiter, told me I was too tall, wouldnt even let me try. It made me want to cry. Anyway, any chance of meeting you guys at a park in Tokyo when you jump the Shinkansen back? I used to be the lurker at a bunch of events, went to a few solaces as well as the Tatsu opening a while back, would be cool to hang out with Gaijin for a change
