GeorgeT Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Here we're back again (that`s me...GeorgeT (gero) and Orici (Rainer), this time with photos of Europa Park in its winter dress. The only problem is: There was no winter at all here in Germany ! While it the park had a descent atmosphere in the evening with all the lights on ... we have to admit that during the daytime there really was a lack of christmas and winter feeling in the park. We still hope you'll enjoy some of those pictures ... Because island has no working attractions during winter time, Europa filled the gap with a snow tubing especially for the kids ! Russia was decorated with this circus-like non-eatable monster WTF cake thingy ! About 25,000 winter-styled trees were spread all over the park ! We think that taking photos from the monorail is the best way to get good night shots in the park. In this picture you see more than the half of all the people visiting the park that day Nooooooooo .... but it really wasn't crowded at all ... ... there're the other ten ... nice picture ... no comments ... Like the snow tubes the ice rink is one of the elements that really enhanced the winter feeling in the park. All you have to do is to ignore the horribly annoying dance music that was played in the area all day ... You are lucky to be able to look at this picture without any sound Rumor has it that Roland Mack controlls the kids visiting the park with some kind of "souvenir" and makes them abuse innocent penguins. DAMN It's fireplace ... the ride ! Here you see that sitting in the front row always makes happy faces (not photohopped at all). Here Gero is doing all the german fans justice, who are totally unhappy with Luc Besson theming Europa's 2013 indoor kiddy coaster. Europa Park created a movie with the parks own mascots that is well done with lots of action ... really fun ! It was also the first time that we spotted special food für diabetics in the park ... this time it was an apple pie ... hey ... Europa has a heart for diabetics ! So now it's time to show you some impressions of what is pobably the most important winter special in the park. It's a huge tent with play areas for the kids, different foods and a stage with various winter acts. The atmosphere inside the tent was REALLY great ! But what the F### has this thing to do with christmas ? It's vagina ... the ride ! This could easily be an advert for someone selling christmas trees It's the awsome raclette that Europa Park is famous for ! It's really hard to take any bad pictures of the parks swiss area. Now thats what we call a huge advent wreath ! Italy ! It's I-T-A-L-Y. Yeah ! This is one of the many examples how the atmosphere raises whren it gets darker inside the park ... The entrance to the enchanted forest ... Random enchanted forest theming ... There's the ice rink again ... at night ! This is what the hotel resort lookes like from the ferris wheel ... This is what the park looks like after having way too much of Europa's delicious punch ! Random entrance decoraion photos ... So lets close this report with a few pictures of the hotel resort ... To be honest ... this report didn't have the quality of our summer-report which has a lot to do with the lack of snow ... the christmas decoration wasn't able to compensate for that. We still hope you enjoyed some of our pictures and we're really looking forward to seeing you here in Germany ! Yours Gero and Rainer ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackie Chan Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Thanks for the update and the nice pictures, Sir. I can't look at enough of them...makes me really homesick, too. I wish I had been able to visit this winter season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfc Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) I understand your feeling about the lack of snow. My parents live in Kings Beach, Calif. (Lake Tahoe area), and there was no snow near their house at all--and the elevation is over 5,000 feet in the Sierra Nevada. Europa was dressed up nicely for Christmas, though, and I agree with you about the Swiss area. Edited January 13, 2012 by cfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
