KidTums' Park, Coaster, State, Country Count

[SharkTums]

Well, since we just got back from another TPR Adventure I updated the little (but ever growing) spreadsheet I have for Kristen to keep a record of where she's been and her coaster count. I know some of you are interested in this, especially as she gets taller and starts to challenge your coaster count, so here it is!

 

Keep in mind, this could be off by a few coasters or parks as I've tried to keep an accurate count, but I'm not one of those insane people and just go off memory when I have time to fill it in.

 

As of April 2012 -

 

States: 30

Countries: 30

Coasters: 174 (Jeff Johnson credits) 137 (actual credits) ...damn that's a lot of powered coasters!!!!

Parks: 273

 

And what does she think of all of this?

 

Well, she'll tell you that her favorite countries to visit are: Japan, Australia, and the UAE (Dubai)

 

Favorite States: California, Florida, Utah, New York

 

Favorite Parks: Tokyo Disney, most Japanese parks, Disney Parks

 

Favorite Coasters: Bee Coaster in Japan, Roller Skaters (especially Dragon at Legoland Florida), and Wacky Worms (especially the one in Oman where her bar popped up and there was insane airtime on the drop)

 

And for you purists, she's been on eight woodies...she's generally not a fan of them and has even turned down riding some that she was allowed on last summer.

Thats amazing! She will totally be well rounded and very cultured at a very young age!

Way to go!

She is going to have my coaster count beat by the end of the year. Especially with the slew of wild mice and kiddie coasters in China!

^Actually, you have a chance as she will not be going to China with us. We sat down together with her, my parents, and us...talked about the pros and cons to going or staying home and we let her decide.

 

It will be the first month of Kindergarten and it's a lot of crap in China! She's already done the Panda's and Great Wall, so we'll probably wait and take her back for the next China trip.

I knew that! Doh! Completely slipped my mind.

 

She'll pass me soon enough.

It was a wise decision--but who will the Chinese people take their photos with now?

^I'd say maybe Colin, but no one will be able to find him with those demure shirts he wears!

That's a big advantage that she will have over most kids. Most adults too, for that matter. Very useful.
