lucazferrazCBMR Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 TPR gotta visit Parque Marisa, when you come to Brazil. I'm pretty sure there has never been such a tidy and clean park in the world. I'm serious: They clean the coaster fence using toothbrushes, for Christ sake!! The floor on the rides sparkle! You gotta see that with your own eyes!

CorkscrewFoley Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Wow, these rides are clean! They look like they just came out of the wrapper (not that they are, but you get the drift). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meninë Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 DAY TWO: Hopi Hari Pictures by: Anderson Borba, Lucaz Ferraz, Marcio Marques, Yan Marlon, Yohans Trevisan Special thanks to Guilherme Rehbein and Guilherme Szpak - Wait to Playcenter TR tomorrow or after! hehe But the day is not over to CMBR! We went back to Vurang to see the coaster with the lights turned on! We were forbidden to take photos of the ride, but here is the full layout of the coaster. At the end of the day, awesome fireworks! Amazing ride! I love freefall towers. Big Tower at Beto Carrero World is like an orgasm to me! Are you ready? I'm going to La Tour Eiffel! D: Giranda Mundi, I'm sorry but I'm not going to you... Back to Aribabiba to ride Hadikali - Hopi Hari's Skycoaster. I think you all know how incredible this feels like... Am I wrong?! Billi-Billi - I already had this credit This feels soooooo good! Crazy Wagon, there you are! Rio Bravo (Angry River) hahaha What's up Wild West? But you didn't scary me at all! la la la la la Katakumb is a very well themed horror ride. Good boy! We all love you! hey Ekatomb... Don't be shy... So beautiful! NO TRESPASSING Montezum's Next Top Model Simulakron (a great simulator :DD) Very fun for the whole family! Vurang is an indoor Intamin spinning coaster! Time to go back to Mistieri, to ride Vurang! (Mistieri means Mystery in the language of Hopi Hari.) I love you. This one goes to my personal book. h_h (not) I went to Hopi Hari last september, and Katapul was operating very well. The looping sensation still amazing hehe. (Katapul is already operating again.) Katapul is located in Aribabiba area of the park. Aribabiba means "live life with joy" in the language of Hopi Hari. Aribabiba is so quiet without Katapul noise! THAT'S the cable! After leaving Montezum, we had a very sad new! Katapul had just broken down. It didn't operate the rest of the day :/ But the park took us to a backstage visit there too. auh ...IT'S AN AWESOME RIDE! Montezum was known by being veeeeeeeeeeeery rough. But in the past months, Hopi Hari did a GREAT work on it, and now I can say that... tlac tlac tlac Now it's time for some little ERT! *me touching the wheel* Montezum's maintence room. ding dong ok... not THAT glam OUR GLAMOUROUS WAY TO MONTEZUM Our private way to Montezum! hehe Guests can't walk here normally... the firemen room *o* they took us to a complete backstage tour! Then we had a talk with Heitor Junior and Fábio Silva, from Hopi Hari... I miss you guys :/ Kaminda Mundi means "way of the world" in the language of Hopi Hari. It's a tribute from Hopi Hari's habitants to their european ancestors. Welcome to Kaminda Mundi! Hopi Hari's first theme area. The park opened earlier for CBMR. Hopi Hari is themed as an imaginary country. It has its own areas, habitants and even its own language. Its entry is a fake department of immigration, lol yay! o/ Almost there!

It was an amazing rainy day! byee Playcenter's "uautobus"! so fun The rain was getting harder and harder, so the park decided to close earlier... Time to go home (or hotel!) bye bye Playcenter! Cataclisma! It gets even better with good friends and hard rain! The brave Evolution! haha Waimea came to Brazil originally bought by Terra Encantada (Rio de Janeiro), on the year the park was constructed (1997), but the park didn't have enough money to the construction, and a lot of rides remained incomplete. Then, Playcenter bough it in the year of 2003. Turbo Drop and Waimea, both awesome! huuuuuuuumm Looping Star' construction This used to be... what? hehe Playcenter's and Playland's maintence room! The Texas Chainsaw Massacre! haha thank you Juan for this amazing visit, you're so funny! Freddy Krueger's room "The Exorcist" room backstage Castelo dos Horrores Making of O Mistério da Monga (The Monga's Mystery) After that, we had a talk with Caio Kowalesca and Juan Espeche, from Indiana Mystery, the company that makes most of brazilian horror rides. Everyone dead after the ride Everyone happy before the ride The most intense ride of the trip: Windstorm! We haven't good Windstorm's pictures because at this time it started to rain veeeeery hard! I have only ridden two Schwarzkopfs in my life: this Looping Star, and Katapul at Hopi Hari... Both are masterpieces to me! I love you, Schwarzkopf We all could ride you all day long, beauty Playcenter's Diva: LOOPING STAR S2 Happy Mountain We love you... Of course we aren't heading for Viking... I HATE YOU VIKING and all your viking friends all over the world! weeeeee Dragon! hihihiii We were all very excited waiting for our ERT on... Smooth Vekoma? Playcenter, tell us your secret! and I'm not lying! everyone had a good time at Boomerang Boomerang is very smooth! good morning darling *-* We had some ERT before the park opened to the public... Let's begin with Boomerang! own we had a talk with Marcio Araujo and Mr. Wilson. They told us a lot of interesting things about the park! thank you very much GLAM entry! It was raining veeeery hard! But we knew that were coasters waiting for us at Playcenter, so, we didn't hesitate! Playcenter sent a bus to take us to the park, so we didn't use CBMR's bus that day... sorry :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was time to go home after these amazing four days! =( Mc Donald's' Popcorn! Can you believe it? RCT Mc Donald's! All the food stalls of the park look like the Rollercoaster Tycoon ones hahaha Now I'm going to practice my driving lessons. DIDN'T YOU READ THE SIGN?! *CULTURE TIME!* "Brigadeiro is a very famous brazilian candy made of chocolate and condensed milk!" This sign said: For your safety, please don't climb the brigadeiros. hahahhaah This Intamin's simulator has some great moves! We are all happy kids after all The staff is very animated! They made the waiting line look fun... Simulador X! Ok, Xuxa's a little bit egocentric... "Every kid has the right to food, home, and healthcare!" some random pictures... yaaaay and a little dangerous too! Very very fun! "Vale do Sol"; a huuuge playground! Someone's going to get soaked! I really liked this one! "Bosque dos Duendes"; a very fun flume ride! You guys have no idea of how slow this thing is -.o "Through the Tunnel" hehe But it's a good ride for kids! I had more fun watching it than riding it ¬¬ An Intamin custom one! "Xuxa's World Rollercoaster" We were all amazed by all the little details! The theming is veeery beautiful! HOW CUTE! *-* all the staff was laughing at us haha Xuxa is one of latin america's most famous singer. She is very known by her Tv shows and Cds made specially for kids...

larrygator Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Trust me! Robb and Elissa are enjoying these as Robb is making sure I add these parks to the Park Index. If Robb and Elissa make it to Brazil I don't see how they can skip a park that has: 1 - all food by McDonalds for Elissa 2 - a credit for Robb 3 - a frog hopper for KidTums Of course you know if Robb comments in this thread, someone will complain that he is not providing updates on the West Coast Trip.

I vaguely remember a Xuxa show here in the states when I was younger, I don't recall it lasting very long, but once you mentioned her, it all came back! Chris.
