roeterich Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Last Wednesday I visited another big German fair, the "Cranger Kirmes" after I already visited the Rheinkirmes Düsseldorf. This fair attracts as well over 4000000, in words four million (!) visitors in 9 days. The fair is actually a bit bigger than the one at Düsseldorf buit it has only 2 coasters and approximately a million visitors less. I visited the fair with my family on a rainy Wednesday, because it was family day and all the rides are cheaper then. We arrived at around 1pm and left at around 7:30pm. It was actually a really nice day, I rode nearly every big atraction and only spent around 20€. Another thing that made the day really great for me was my first ever Bungee Jump (I'll do a little special update later). So enough said now onto the pics and captions: The top scan "Skater". A real vomit machine, at least the ones at a fair. That was the last pic for today. I hope you enjoyed my photos and I get many replies. The same log flume then the one in Düsseldorf, but for me it was to cold to ride. Imperator and PT2. They look good together^^ "Imperator" goodness. I had actually a beter ride on it then the one at "Rheinkirmes" The "EGF-Flip" thing. You could touch the track^^ And finally "Alpina Bahn" which was only 2,30€ today so I rode it two times. PT2 and Imperator, where both in Düsseldorf as well. "Revolution" the Top spin and... WTF blue sky in Germany??? Hmm at least it was cold^^ we have average 60-65°F this august here in Germany Yeah I was in Hong Kong as well "Air Maxx" har to describe what it is, but it is really funny Guess what? A "Backfisch" slide^^ They do the baking fish in the first floor and let it slide down to the ground floor^^ "Remix" with it's smoking Coca Cola can in the middle! Turbo Force is really a fun ride! The "Flipper". You might know it from a park but you can't compare attractions at parks and fairs even if they are the same ones. The rides at fairs are 3 times longer and harder than the ones at parks^^ The wave swinger and the ferris wheel. You might see that a lot of the attracions are similar to the ones at "Rheinkirmes Düsseldorf" Circus Circus, one of the few attractions I didn't ride that day "Wilde Maus", a wild mouse and the first of two coasters. The flying carpet was the first bigger attraction on our lap around the fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roeterich Posted August 15, 2005 Author Share Posted August 15, 2005 Come on guys write a few replies those TRs are a lot of work for me^^ Hmm ok I promised a second part of my bungee jump and here it comes: After a few hours on the actual fair we decided to go home and I spotted a Bungee Jumpin crane. I said I want to go and jump but only as a joke, but as we passed directly by the crane and it was only 35€ to jump, I decided to do it really. It was a really cool experience and I'm happy that I didn't miss it. Anyone else here who already bungee jumped? Totaly dazzled and shaking after the jump. My little niece is happy to have me back save on the earth. That's it and now write many replies Yeah I really wore short jeans and it was freezing cold Wooooohaaaaa. 60m free fall. That kicks Screams ass^^ Dude that's high! And it even get's higher... No way back from here^^ Here they are connecting me to the bungee rope Right before my first bungee jump ever. I was so afraid of doing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hattuchili Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Hey Sebastian, great pictures. It really looks like you had a good day at Reihnkirmes. I can not wait to go to the Bremer Freimarkt in october. The bungee jump looks cool, I never did that! --Sören Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
