Beeja Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Helloooooo everybody! It's been a while since I posted on TPR but now I'm back and I'm better than ever Anyway, I went to Walibi World with three friends. We were on a holiday in the Netherlands and stayed at a Center Parcs resort. We had a great week but the highlight was, ofcourse, Walibi World. Highlight of the day was, also ofcourse, Goliath! Well, I'm not into talking so let's see some pics! Enjoy! It also has some theming Fun for all ages, though! El Rio Grande is not what I call "wild" but here is a nice part... Express, seen from the rapids queue El Rio Grande, the rapids with the strange boats. This fountain is so funny! Especially when some coolio is standing next to it... Poor Via Volta... And poor me for missing the credit... Chairswings... Always a beautiful sight, especially when I'm NOT in it! Here I am, acting totally normal... Another shot of the Flying Dutchman Like I said before: this thing is wild! And here's the proof! Random strangers on Flying Dutchman Blurry onride pic. I'm not surprised that it's blurry, this thing is wild! Nelle and myself, going up the lifthill. Operating Flying Duthman Goldmine in the back, closed Tomahawk in front. Round 2 and we're still doing fine! Wok likes to hide him between the coaster tracks. Light speed!! The long and steep lift hill... Everyone is so excited to ride it! A kiddie coaster! Named after the infamous character Wok! Time for a another coaster! Annemie tried a chip twister. Appearantly you have to make a goofy face when you're eating it... I think that's the station building, it sure looks nice! Some nice foggy effects... It opened later that day but we didn't feel like riding it... Splash Battle, still closed. Ready for lift off! Space Shot time! But why so serious, girls?! Enterprise thingy. Didn't ride it though, I'm too scared... But it makes a nice pic! Yes! We conquered Goliath! First train of the day, actually, and front row! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! A lovely fountain for all you fountain enthusiasts! This lucky kid got to press the button! Walibi is not amused: "Dude, what the hell are you doing?! I'm the mascot!" Joe wants to open the park himself! The park is not open yet... The entrance. We were almost alone And this torture device... Although I must admit that Express LOOKS nice. Walking towards the entrance, we see this beauty... Woohoo, we made it! And we were the 7th car on the parking lot, a good sign! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beeja Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 Part two! A last shot of Goliath. I know I haven't got much pics of Goliath, I was too busy running around, screaming: "OMG, it's so good! It's amazing! The airtime is incredible! The back seat is the best!!" Ooooh, that sounds like fun! Time to leave, bye bye Six Flags Holland! Having fun with the camera... Nice but way too slow, I think walking goes faster... Our last ride of the day: the oldtimers. We made it! And we're not that wet! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Here we are at the top, enjoying the view. This double drop provides some airtime! Time for some water fun on the Crazy River! This is becoming a classic! Hudson Bay, a swinging ship (that's pretty obvious...) I didn't know red lightbulbs existed in Merlins age... Yes, that is correct! We all have a t-shirt with a psycho-eyed squirrel on it! Here we are at Merlins Magic Castle! Almost at the top! Robin Hoods lift hill Station overview A train leaves the station "A Robin Hood cable is a great place to rest!" Time to ride Robin Hood, a Vekoma woodie. We see you, Goliath! Random strangers holding on for dear life... Ouch ouch ouch! Good thing an SLC provides nice photos... and yes, also here! More headbanging here... Headbanging starts here! Looks good, feels terrible! Ah, El Condor! The first SLC ever, and my worst so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mike Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Hey Beeja Buddy! It is always a pleasure to see your beautiful face and one of your awesome trip reports! I like looking at pictures of places I have been, brings back great memories like Elissa checking off my shirt at the Walibi World globe, and Joe dumping cup fulls of water on kids at the splash battle ride. Best of all, it reminds me of the great fun and fantastic day we spent together, that was really awesome Curious though, it sure does look like you have a wedding band on now, something you forget to tell us?? Also, congrats on being 1st runner up at the Miss Big Mike Road Show 2008 pagent! That deserves a quick photo slide show of our great day together!!! Miss you lots, Big Mike My favorite picture! Be well my buddy, see you again one day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansrubens Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 How come you were driving a Mercedes with a dutch plate ? I was wondering the same thing. Thanks for sharing and we all hope that more PTR's may follow this year. It didn't seem too busy did they do a two train operation on Goliath? ----Hans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_Behemoth_Lady_Jess Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 So El Condor is still a death machine torture device, I see. I thought they were going to put new trains in like the ones on Great Nor'easter in New Jersey. I guess they never went through with it? Sorry, I'm not up to date with coaster news and updates outside North America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beeja Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 Thanks for the nice comments, everyone! Now for some answers: * El Condor is indeed a death machine! My ears were red and burning when I got out... About the new trains: I think they tested two new cars last year but that's all that happened... * We stole that Mercedes at the border * The park was not busy at all that day and there was only one train on Goliath. But we had plenty of rides! I really love the back * What's a wedding band? Is that the same as a wedding ring? If so: no, I'm not married! That's a ring I made myself and I had it on last year also. I've been wearing it for about 10 years now! Big Mike, thanks for the slide show, I really had a great day back then! Too bad I can't make it to Scandi this year... Well, I'm beginning a new trip report right now! See you there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_Behemoth_Lady_Jess Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Yes, a wedding band is another name for a wedding ring. Shame El Condor didn't get the new train... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
