SharkTums Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Such a cute little park, shame most people don't get to experience it with their weird operating days/hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted May 14, 2021 Author Share Posted May 14, 2021 Last bit of this Midwest trip in 07 was spent at Kings Island. Beast at night was a lot of fun. It was kind of challenging to get fun pictures from a lot of rides back then. so you will have to do it with these Thanks for reading, should i continue with updates like this or is nobody interested? such a weird ride. still bummed i did not make it to korea in time. These rides are fun (when done right) most people have a picture like this another weird ride. time to cool down a little talking about weird rides.. grin fun for all ages yeah, 2 trains that's all for today (and midwest 07) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhappy Posted June 21, 2021 Author Share Posted June 21, 2021 Sorry for the delay, it has been a crazy busy month Anyway. The next Trip i joined was the Europe trip in 2008. Lots of new parks (and some familiar ones) with a fun group of people Fun times. First stop on arrival day was at Le Jardin d'Acclimation this was a very nice coaster with a fun "tunnel" feature fun for all ages and yes, there was a powered coaster and the spinner. There also was a zoo area and other fun things to look at (or play with) i'll try to update this 3 times a week, fingers crossed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhappy Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 First official day of the trip was a visit to Parc Asterix Fun park but in France.. so yeah.. highlight was Defi de Cesar to me, for the rest i don't remember much from that day/visit. Fun theming in the park bob time somewhat infamous/signature picture coaster time happy people ouch believe this was entrance to some indoor rides. signature screaming faces. up-side-down kiddie time water ride i believe this was a dark ride raft ride view?? another kiddie coaster this was fun, queue area etc was awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted June 28, 2021 Author Share Posted June 28, 2021 Next stop was Walibi Belgium Looking back at the pictures it was another hot and busy day at the park (must have been a heatwave in the area at the time of the trip) Somehow i managed to not ride the awesome shooter at the park (actually still have not done that) and we had a lovely look at that weird coaster/zipline/contraption thing that was built and torn down pretty soon after that. It was closed at that time. anyway, picture time. welcome to Walibi Belgium such a weird contraption first ride of the day, shuttle thing i guess we can ride the kiddie i've been told this is an awesome shooter. somehow i still have not been on it drop towers are fun mine train coaster ride. water effects are always nice another look at this weird thing that was not around for long. wooden coaster Boomerang Raft ride was pretty popular that day so was the logflume 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhappy Posted June 30, 2021 Author Share Posted June 30, 2021 The afternoon/evening was filled with a fun activity close to Walibi Belgium. Lots of climbing and ziplines welcome to Aventure Parc some rules/info after getting dressed people were released on the course in groups. starting small and low things got more difficult over time some people looked in despair over the different challenges (or just felt old) and others made it look easy. but the ziplines got bigger each level and so got the reward/stoke Not sure if the place is still around, but if you get the chance to try something similar, go for it. Lot of fun with a group of friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted July 2, 2021 Author Share Posted July 2, 2021 The next day we started at Bobbejaanland. fun park, not too big (back then) with some fun and crazy rides. perfect way to start the day and wake up a little fun ride and plenty of options for picture taking and then we noticed this thing... i guess a picture says more than a thousand words is pretty accurate in this case (i skipped it and am happy about it) anyway, back to the coasters and rides power thingy nice looking water ride crazy long coaster train and party inside and the kiddie coaster. Next stop: Toverland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted July 5, 2021 Author Share Posted July 5, 2021 Next stop during the 08 Europe Trip was Toverland. Such a fun place (and they got some great new rides since 08) Looking back at these images it reminds me that i should go back there sometime during the next couple of months for a relaxing day of picture taking and riding. anyway, we arrived sometime during the afternoon, had time to explore the park a bit, got some food and then had part of the park to ourselves (with the group) fun times first look from the bus at Troy ropes course was a lot of fun triangle and carnage.. back to Troy fun times first drop so much has been added to the park since 08. onride crazy so many levels and changes entering the fly-through sun is getting lower ropes course was also an option after dinner bit of a challenge for some and don't forget about booster bike.

SharkTums Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I can't believe how much Toverland has grown through the years, yet still retained so much of what made them super fun in the beginning! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted July 7, 2021 Author Share Posted July 7, 2021 Next day started at Efteling. Plenty of changes to the park since these pictures in 08. lots of walking and sore feet after a day at this park (and we had another park to visit later that day) welcome to the Efteling Hotel early morning butter Pegasus woodie coaster. ok ride, but the ride that came in it's place is more fun owh yeah, this thing still standing.. BOB is gone as well weird water coaster/ride thing. Station theming was great though lasers lights are always fun efteling version of "it's a small world" too many stereotypes.. has to be changed as well Next stop: Drievliet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted July 9, 2021 Author Share Posted July 9, 2021 let's talk about the next park. Drievliet. It's a small park in the Netherlands with a set of "standard" rides and something a little different. plenty of flat rides and fun things to do. we got there at the end of the day, had time to do a fun lap and check out the rides at the park and finished with a bit of time on the new addition (back then) at the park. first things first, this spinner was crazy wild mouse with rust theming but it was a fun ride powered coaster. check i see a loop flat ride fun just cruising around so yeah, this was a very nice surprise (but more rides later) small area but lots of fun for those summer days for the people that don't mind going up in the air logflumes are always a nice touch not sure about this thing launch track and yeah, it did go upside down fun time and this reminds me i should go back there someday to see how the park is doing these days. is anybody still reading this??
