PTR: Parque Warner Madrid

[Dacorian]

After a tough week across Germany, it was already time to begin a huge trip to Spain. By car heading for Madrid in order to go where we want. After the two parks in Madrid, we will go to Benidorm Terra Mitica and finally we conclude in Salou for Port Aventura. Ole!

This is our first stop in Spain. If we don't count the petrol and toll roads in France is this a very cheap stop for people with a jearpass of Bobbejaanland. (Free entrance in parque warner and Parque de Atracctiones) Because this is not our first visit to this two parks we knew where to stay. Alberto Contador's village next to the big city "Pinto. Somewhere along the edge of the village next to Pinto was "San Martin de la Vega, the village where Warner is situated. The parking was on the expensive side (in European terms) but that was the biggest cost of the day. We know the Spaniards by now because of their slow but nervous character, and expect that there are no attractions open yet for 11 hours. No problem, I was able to wait 10 minutes. Generally I can be short in terms for this Warner Bros theme park ... finished in theme!

You can still smell the Six Flags atmosphere. But when we arrived at the monster-like Booberang we see that the train is stuck between the loop and second lift hill. Darn it! that did not seem healthy.

And the fear became reality because Stunt Fall can not be opened in my presence. That also goes for the beautiful log flume "Rio Bravo which includes a crane. But the other rides like the B&M Floorless or Batman La Fuga are open. Superman'sFloorless effect is such a great feeling. Although the track is horribly close to my feet it's my nr 2 favorite ride in Europe. A steel monster that every European coasterfan should have done. Unfortunately, the decor inside the station is not as finished as the outside. Batman (La Fuga) on the other side has a nice waiting area which is also based purely on the comics. The combination of the waiting area, the square outside Gotham City and the rock-solid B & M Inverted, why are there so few parks that can make things like this? Unfortunately, the area also some less attractive and successful attractions for both sides as Superman and Batman. Lex Luthor is a fairly bare top spin with a silly program. This is done without the usual fountains in front. And what makes it quite annoying that long operator chatter during the ride.

Many of the Spaniards just could never just keep their mouths shut, there must always be a great explanation. This is particularly annoying on busy days.

 

And Batman had the "Knight Flight simulator. One of the setbacks because I expected more the simulator of the old WB Movie World Germany. I haven't done this ride with my previous visit and there was a bit bored with it. In retrospect this was that bad to skip this. That this people were annoying was proven many times in this park (but even worse in other parks), including the children's coaster where there made a lot of time between the rides for talking all the time.

That wasn't so bat with both B & M's because when they sometimes wait 5 to 10 minutes for the trains to fill a bit (very quiet days).

I have to wait until the trains were full, but assure you that this is not fun because the occupants are just mad and scream all the time and after 5 minutes I was almost mad himself because of them. To escape a little from those noicemakers we went to the Police Academy stunt show ... and the volume in that show was so loud that my ears are in the hotel itself still buzzed. The stunt show is similar to the version of the Italian Mirabilandia where they focus at stunts and speed with cars. Good show, terrible sound.

During my last visit I was very impressed of Embrujado el hotel. This is a Vekoma Madhouse with an eerie atmosphere. I understand in fact nothing of all that Spanish, but the atmosphere in this house is so good. The decor and especially the movements are the way as it should be . I can call it a bit the Phantom Manor of the madhouses.During my first ride was a girl... about 12 years and had a sort of anxiety attack and could barely breathe because of this madhouse experience.

 

Along the Gotham City Park was once a passage through the western part to go to the triple S & S tower. La Venganza del Enigma was the first day of out visit only with a drop or space shot and the other day it went to a combo. I've done a lot of rides including just by myself ... It was very quiet. Good tower ride on this program and also not the lowest in his genre.

The western part, we are quite used to it in theme parks, But still a very nice area with a valve of an RCCA Woodie. Backseat a wonderful experience, a disaster in the front but with a beautiful sight.I've done worse coasters of this builder and the dry environment Made it a fantastic atmosphere in this area.

The only dark ride in the park was a bit further in the children's area. This is not what I'm used to of this builder (Sally). Fair amount of cardboard and difficult to shoot targets and poor capacity.I can imagine that there could be a long line, especially at that work rate. Prices for dinner were a bit on the expensive side just as the souvenirs.

We saw that the park is rarely sold anything, but things that are sold these two days was all thrown on the ground. Pretty tidy in the morning, in the afternoon a garbage dump. We also see this in other parks in Spain.

On Spanish standards, the staff friendly, but have this habit of talking loudly, work slowly and a very Non- interested appearance.

Parque Warner Madrid is great, like an amusement park is supposed to be with today's top coasters, lots of family and children's attractions and shows in an exceptionally nice jacket and well-known characters.

I can show onrides of Superman, Batman, Venganza del Enigma and Coaster Express. We stayed in Pinto and then to drive to the Parque de Madrid atracctiones.

 

After 3 days away ... finally arrived in Warner. Madrid is not close by

 

Impressive is an appropriate word

 

Oops, only opens at 12 hours? No problem, Superman is open.

 

Gotham City!

 

My No. 2 in my top list is from B & M. I usually perfer Launch coasters, but the track is perfect in my opinion.

 

Show Embrujado for El Hotel. The atmosphere here has become a well-structured if you're lucky enough that it is quiet.

 

If Horror fanatic II loved the main show, especially the animatronic during the ride. The food was upon entering is all normal, but during the main show was the much less palatable. Fantastic!

 

This was a shame! The best Vekoma in front of me ... and closed. : (

 

 

So I cryed of in the Splash Battle "OsoYugi. A terribly wet splash battle.

 

It may be a chaotic but a very nice version. The best part is that it's themed to famous figures. Nostalgia from the 70's.

 

So I went to the waiting room of Batman la Fuga again to make some pictures.

Hotel Embrujado :

 

Day 2 ... much brighter but still not too warm. And again unfortunately without stunt fall.

 

 

still out of service!

 

Yes, the weather was better ... or maybe not ...

 

Nice waiting area Embrujado

 

Batman in action

 

Wet rapid river

 

And than it's time to move on. Gratis te bezoeken met een Bobbejaanland Abbo en leuk te combineren met Parque de atracctiones.

With this I close off a very nice theme park to go to other parks Spanish parks. Warner is a must-do for every pretparkfan. Free to visit with a Bobbejaanland jearpass and fun to combine with the Parque atracctiones Madrid.
