Awesome TR! The parks look a lot of fun. As for Disturbed, The Sickness and Believe were pretty awesome, Ten Thousand fists started to send them downhill. Then inside the fire or whatever its called came out and it was just okay, but perfect Insanity is AWESOME! Asylum... I am not a fan... The lead singer of Disturbed is meh, but Corey Taylor is GOD!!!!!!!!!!

SATURDAY March 19, 2011

West Coast Bash : Six Flags Magic Mountain

 

In 2010, the Bebes attended both days of WCB (SFMM & KBF). Day two, at Knotts, with only a few hours sleep, was very difficult. We spent a good amount of time resting at the lunch tables and sleeping through the presentation in the theater!

 

This year, we had to work a long, late night just before WCB and then back to work early Monday morning. So, we opted to attend ONLY the SFMM day this year.

5:04AM

The Bebes just got home from a long 13hr work day (night) and are ready for bed.

WCB starts in about 3hrs. Ohhhh Nooooo!

7:46AM

After a short nap, The Bebes AND Matt are up and ready to leave the house for WCB.

Lady Bebe’s erratic driving gives Matt his first Ride of the day.

WCB will be Matt’s first trip to SFMM

WCB, Here come The Bebes!!!! And Matt.

Gertrude came to WCB in her Jeep today

1378775204_07BigMikeChuckandGang.JPG.df9376af366aff92e8d4358c5f10e7d7.JPG

Lady Bebe forgot something in the car, so Mr Bebe was checked in by Chuck and Big Mike.

“Where’s Lady Bebe? “, Big Mike asked.

36515304_08LadyBebethroughthecrowd.JPG.eefbc8581d3f9133f5abaa69d30708f0.JPG

Then, he spotted her through the crowd

1488383086_09Hereshecomes.JPG.260a5888bfc3be03fdcaba3c769a5f55.JPG

Lady Bebe came running to the Big Man

1312537924_10Reunitedanditfeelssogood.JPG.0313ab846f771b23e1209571fd7c85fb.JPG

Reunited and it feels so good

1191284549_12TicketANDPhysicsDay.JPG.0f9a2ef10003e31bc631260c07b38e79.JPG

WCB coincided with an ACE event AND Physics Day this year. Physics day, much like buses, makes Mr Bebe’s blood boil.

158436251_13Pee.JPG.c0fe5a1a104a719b452dfa491dea94b3.JPG

But before we can enter, Lady Bebe goes to the bathroom.

To evade the crowds, we planned to go right to Riddler, at the back of the park, and work our way toward the front.

No one in front of us, no one behind us. Yes!!!

1627296973_16Gertrudebeatustherebut.JPG.a26b3b80cd29c4ce9293e364f0178bfd.JPG

Except Gertrude. That crafty bird beat us to Riddler!!!

1311820161_17Riddlerwasntopen.JPG.af5831bc882e5fbb40fa41fb961f23b9.JPG

And Riddler wasn’t open! BLAST! Off to Gotham City, Quick!

Green Lantern was Closed. But we managed 3 quick stay-on rides on Batman.

1624114803_20GoliathClosed.JPG.036e88e4c9b165bbfadb014d4c1a7516.JPG

This poor girl couldn’t even look us in the face to tell us that Goliath was also CLOSED.

455184429_21Dinosaurgrowledonscream.JPG.ec6e339481b96c0e3adc19cc0d94b9ba.JPG

We headed to Scream and got screamed at by this old dinosaur

1711459833_22CummonVogue.JPG.0ef6dc7ea4a17a7dcbd93281541e8475.JPG

We must’ve found the party here at Scream.

C’mon Vogue. Let your body move to the music.

636505811_23ERTonScream.JPG.7429ebd0278b060b3e9d6a22c0134f19.JPG

Uhhhh, where’d the party go????

Morning ERT on Scream looked like THIS if you weren’t on the Robb Alvey Train.

71843301_24ILoveRidesandHilaryDuffManly.JPG.0e47a862257600ffab38c6afea3232d6.JPG

We met up with ILoveRides David and ILoveBunnies Hilary Duff (Brittney) who gave us a super duper Manly Pose.

881492778_25AFTERXgenpub.JPG.e4e84cfe5dc1507f407a9389502a1d3b.JPG

We went to X2 for a couple rides to finish off ERT, as the general public came running toward X2!

804510141_26FastPassTheRide.JPG.8dd39aea73042d4d2b3486db217dd9bd.JPG

Fast Pass: The Ride had a huge line.

Can you use your Fast Pass to skip the line for Fast Pass?

MANLY on Tatsu.

This was one of the FREE photos we were able to get, thanks to SFMM and TPR!!!!

This is one of the COOLEST Perks of the event!!!!!!

823955402_28NEWSuperman.JPG.cc1a11142bb7fb876501625cac474938.JPG

We headed to the top of the hill for a ride on the newly renovated Superman: Escape from Krypton.

It had all new paint, was running at full speed (over 100mph) AND goes backward now!

1915121568_29TWOsidestochoosefrom.JPG.efbb5d50d62520eb3615f119c410fc51.JPG

AND running BOTH sides!!!! But which way do we go????

2128379371_30Wrongsidelongwaitforbrokentrain.JPG.44d46a71b2cfa6733bbff4ffb12bfd0a.JPG

We chose the right side. We chose POORLY.

The ride broke and we were stranded in the ice cave for over an hour.

1892060851_31ManWomanManGay.JPG.313809def386b2bb4a9b77c532ae6ae9.JPG

Apparently, you can only ride if your group consists of Man, Woman, Man, & Man with limp wrist.

935091492_35Calicoasters.JPG.48f75d1d365b016c4762c3b5ce639f6d.JPG

We caught up with Calicoasters Cody, who had an audience as he told tales of lore and yesteryear

1958564186_36ALLladiespee.JPG.4cf9971a0eb3d1a66b9255d6bff9f5f3.JPG

OK, so Lady Bebe isn’t the only girl who uses the restroom 100 times a day!

1400251470_37BackstageServiceRoad.JPG.6a55d2be9e12257dbbadb59415f2a187.JPG

After lunch, we were treated to a backstage access tour of the Tatsu Service Road.

Interesting new views of Tatsu and Revolution from back here.

1118672977_38Exceedingthespeedlimit.JPG.d8714ef13797d17398ee01762afef071.JPG

Tatsu is definitely in excess of the posted speed limit!

Then it was time for the Group Photo.

The Bebes are in the back row, just right of the center.

Where were YOU when this photo was taken???

2113255622_47WhatWeDoReflectWhoWeAre.JPG.158685027677cadf909e097afc1b1189.JPG

What we DO, reflects WHO we are.

After the group photo, we left SFMM and went to Tall Paul’s house for a nap.

He even set up a futon and blow up mattresses for us to crash on! THX Tall Paul!!!!

237089638_49THEMANLIESTGOLIATHPHOTO.jpg.c7893dc9eb288ef60fb86bc2637494e2.jpg

We returned to the park about an hour before ERT and met up with David and Brittney for the most MANLY Goliath ride EVAR!!!!

376121075_50BatmannightERT.jpg.74101292c87bc03dec2f1987cdbd82ca.jpg

Night ERT on Scream was disappointing (couldn’t hear the music, didn’t notice any lighting effects, and the rain stung!), but Batman ERT kicked some major a$$!!!! The lighting & fog effects were amazing!

922442707_51NewApocalypseSign.JPG.d4581d7562492090d935a158623fdcbd.JPG

We headed for a nighttime ride on Apocalypse. This thing is just amazing after dark!!!

1719239702_52Ro-Sham-Boforinsideseat.gif.4de08b730ae8e74e14e1bfcbf34d8bc9.gif

Then, on to X2.

David and Mr Bebe Ro-Sham-Bo for the INSIDE seat in row 6.

After a spin on X2, David and Brittney called it a day and left.

Good-bye Manly friends!!!! Thanks for hanging with us and making WCB so fun again!!!

842674033_54SuperShawnsphototicket.JPG.6dabce866848372c62bcdfe3b07e7bf4.JPG

Mr Bebe lost 2 photo vouchers, but SuperShawn was so SuperCool that he gave us his voucher!!!

Thanks SuperShawn!!!!

Before leaving, Lady Bebe had to go to the bathroom (Duh!) and emerged in this super manly pose.

Success in the Bathroom!?!

96238054_56NOTMANLY.JPG.32cc3e740906f73abd2305f70439e480.JPG

Uhhhhh, OK. 100% NOT Manly.

Thanks William, Neal, Robb and everyone else at TPR & SFMM for another great (and Manly) WCB!!!

It's nice to see your report Bebes! Sorry I didn't say "hi" at WCB. Our paths didn't cross during the day, except at lunch, and you two were fairly into a conversation with a few other people at the time. I didn't want to be rude and butt in, so I figured I'd just run into you later, but never did.

Great update, well worth the wait! It was awesome to finally meet the very cool Bebes! Hope your SFMM day this past week was good. And do give me a shout if you ever plan to do any parks in the area or head to hollywood.

Bebes... you outdid yourselves with this one! Totally worth the wait. There is so much hilarious-ness in that report. Gertrude's jeep, mini manly Robb, Green Lantern under construction, Lady Bebe peeing, Hilary peeing, manly Goliath, rock paper scissors, tons of bonus manliness, and the best ever - man woman man & man with limp wrist. And that's not even everything. Such a great TR, I was LOLing the whole time.

 

Thanks for hanging out with us again this year... WCB just wouldn't be the same without The Bebes. We had such a fun time!

 

Oh, and in response to "Can you use your Fast Pass to skip the line for Fast Pass?" Actually, yes, you can. Just show your fast pass at the front of the line.

Wow guys!!! Thanks a ton! We're so glad you enjoyed the TR!

 

John, so sorry we missed you! You SHOULD HAVE butted in!!!!! And I can't believe we never crossed paths ALL DAY! How crazy!

 

Big Mike, It was SO GOOD to see you again. I wish we would've hung out with you a little more!

 

David, you and Hillary Duff ROCK! Can't wait to hang out again!

 

SuperShawn, A pleasure. We had a decent time at the mountain last week, except for the bee sting I got while riding Revolution. It's still red and irritated! We'll definitely let you know if/when we go to a park. I'd suspect a Late May-June trip to SFMM for Green Lantern.....

 

Caesar, You TOTALLY should be in this report. One of the most epics moments of our WCB ----> when CAESAR ditched US and rode the Goliath train that WASN'T manly, never to be seen again!!!! LOL!!!!

HELP THE BEBES PLAN Theme Park Tour: Part Vier (TPTP:4)

 

So, the timing for the TPR NorthEast trip isn't going to work out for us.

Our backup plan, taking our OWN mirrored NorthEast trip, also isn't going to time out right.

 

Initiate PLAN C: CENTRAL FLORIDA (EARLY JANUARY)

 

The Bebes have never been to the Orlando area and could sure use some planning advise. We pretty much have an idea of the parks and such (IOA, Disney, BGT, etc); but would love some suggestions for:

-PLACES to EAT

-OTHER PLACES to SEE

-OTHER ACTIVITIES

-Timing

-Route planning

-Hidden Gems

 

 

HERE IS OUR PLAN:

 

Dec 31 - Jan 21

 

We will be spending our first 6days on International Drive, utilizing the iTrolley as our only mode of transportation to visit:

-Fly from L.A. to ORLANDO on SAT New Years EVE (arrive around 6pm & take LYNX Bus to iDrive)

-Discover Cove on Sunday (New Year's DAY)

-Universal Orlando on Monday

-IOA on Tuesday

-Seaworld on Wed

-Aquatica on Thur

 

We will rent a car on International Drive and spend 3 days in/around Tampa:

-Busch Gardens on FRI

-FREE DAY in TAMPA (What should we do here?????) on SAT

-LegoLand Florida on SUN en route back through Orlando to Cocoa Beach

 

We will spend SUNDAY NIGHT at Cocoa Beach

-Is there a restaurant in Cocoa Beach that we should go to???? And a dish you'd recommend???

 

We will return our car to Port Canaveral and board a 4 night RCCL cruise to the Bahamas (MON P.M. - FRI A.M.):

-Coco Cay (What to do here????????)

-Nassau (What to do here???????)

 

Upon returning to the mainland, we will head to Disney for the remainder of our trip.

We will spend 9 days / 8 nights at a Value Resort; with only Disney transpo / public Transpo available to us:

We will have a Magic Your Way 6 day pass (not park hopper).

 

-Disney Boardwalk,Downtown Disney, & La Nouba on FRI or SAT???

-ONE FREE DAY near Disney World on FRI or SAT (What might we do???)

-EPCOT on a Sunday?

-MAGIC KINGDOM on Monday?

-Swim with Manatees / Airboat day trip on TUESDAY

-HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS on Wednesday?

-ANIMAL KINGDOM on Thursday?

-RETURN to a Disney Park that we didn't get enough of on FRI?

-SATURDAY we can visit a park in the A.M. before catching our Magical Express to the Airport for a 7pm flight.

 

Please help us make the most of our trip!!!! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, and of course, a slew of epic trip reports will follow.

Even though I grew up about 30 minutes from Disney, I have no real help for you there. But, in regards to your free day in Tampa I have a few suggestions.

 

One big suggestion would be the new Salvador Dali museum which is just across the bay in St. Petersburg. It's very easy to get to and is definitely something to see, even if just the building alone. Plus it's one of the largest collections of Dali works anywhere, including most of the famous pieces (Dali Museum website). It's also right on the bay, a block or 2 away from the Pier and downtown which has some pretty decent restaurants. You could probably spend a couple of hours in the museum and be good. They do have docent tours as well as self guided audio tours which are included with admission. That time of year shouldn't be too horribly crowded.

 

As far as the Tampa area itself, there is the Florida Aquarium if you like that sort of thing. It's not the biggest or best aquarium but it's still nicely done and is geared towards Florida waters. It's down near the port and they have added a lot of shops and restaurants to the area. You could also check out Ybor which isn't too far away from the port. If you went to Ybor I'd highly recommend eating at The Columbia. It's Florida's oldest restaurant and some seriously awesome Cuban food!

 

And for something out of the ordinary but still fun, the Yuengling Brewery is extremely close to Busch Gardens and features tours with beer tasting at the end! Pretty interesting and free beer is always a bonus!

 

Sounds like you've got the makings of an awesome trip! Enjoy!

Here's the Dali Museum....simply awesome!
