Werner Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Welcome to my first TR on TPR. This last month of April we went to many things and parcs. We start of on the VIP opening of Speed of Sound at Walibi Holland. From the SBNO boomerang to the best Boomerang! With a new onboard audio system and sound system in the station... And now the 1# Boomerang in the World! And then a few days later, we arrive at Europa Park for the grand opening of the 2011 season! Blue Fire action! Zooff... zuperrsnell... Spanish area stunt show. With swords! Try me, i'm big.. 2 against 1? Oh! 1 is a girl.. that's oke than. Food in a rollercoaster! FoodLoop! New to Europa Park in 2011... And there's me in the new fairy area of the park! As the King, yes your right... ME! After one day at EP, we headed out for Walygator... The day after.. time for Walygator. Where are we again you say? You can buy a car here! Like WTF! Michel is also liking it here in Walygator... Bleh, as the worst wooden coaster on the planet. Ride me! Or else i will eat you! Kiddie with in the back? Going on to the lift. This lift we mean, and what goes up..? Must go true a loop-de-loop! Can you see me? I;m right here behind this bush.. Time for the final helix! WIEUW... Kiddie credit whores! A croc? Well it could be a bird? Vekoma with good old Arrow! More coaster porn! Rushing down! Yes it is! A Raptor clone... Coaster of DEAD! Silence! I kill you!

Midgetman82 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Great photos, especially the speed of sound photos! That ride looks really cool at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the ghost Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Awesome pictures... I'm hoping more Boomerangs get new trains, cause otherwise they kinda are universally known for sucking. At WCB Robb asked "who wants to win a piece of boomerang" or something like that and no one cheered at all, despite the fact that we cheered for every other item he showed... good times.

Werner Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 now we arrive on our last day of the crazy April adventures, we went to Parque Warner Madrid! One of Europe's best parks if you ask me!Why does it have to be so far away! We arrive at Parque Warner just around opening time... Already liking this park again. Feels like Six Flags can build a good themed park after all... Feels like this could be in Orlando, but nope just in the dessert near Madrid... Look at this, does anyone say: This is how SF should be like? Superman! Great te see you again. Airtime sweetness! Stunt Fall was ofcourse closed! we keep hoping... Vekoma madhouse, not very special but still fun... An inside look at the magic of Vekoma... Bugs was also in de house... Credit whoring area, that sould be the name... First credit whore ride... Road Runner Express(i think)...? Miep,miep... The fastest ride of them all! with a 'boom'ing surprise.. please, try to get of safe... Credit whore with Tom and Jerry.. and don't forget the food! The best themed kiddie ever! With food! Police Academy Stunt show, and during the show we saw... when the night fell down towards us... That STUNT FALL was opened! YEEY!!!! That's all folks! See you next time... And purhaps on the NE and/or RTCP trip(s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortugePunk Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 great photos. that new boomerang looks fun. really interesting idea in enclosing the first lift. would definitely make for a more interesting lift. blue fire also looks amazing. wish the states would get more small, compact crazy rides like that!

Werner Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 Looks like you had a nice trip. Spain is still on my to-do list. that spot.. was it in one of the lenses or on the sensor? Had a really nice trip, can't wait to go to the USA again this summer. That spot turned out to be on the sensor's, it's fixed now i hope. It did show when i was taking the pics, but didn't when i looked them back on the camera. When i loaded them into Adobe Lightroom they showed themselves again. Let's hope tomorrow they don't show up agian when i get home. Otherwise it a trip back to the shop(Foka), and have it cleaned inside... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
