gisco Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 That was the perfect "Steve" picture. With him blowing smoke!
beatle11 Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Oh yeah, that El Toro. It might be small in comparison, but it looks like a lot of fun. I wonder how many bugs that kid swallowed? I'm going to guess 42.
Hhappy Posted May 27, 2012 Author Posted May 27, 2012 Today's picture is from the winter 2011/2012 I had time to visit Europe Park that winter Here's a picture of the Euro Mir station/entrance area with winter theming
cfc Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Ho, ho, ho! Psycho Santa wishes you a very scary Christmas!
Hhappy Posted May 28, 2012 Author Posted May 28, 2012 Let's go back to 2011 I'm not sure if it's a good idea to start posting pctures from that Japan trip as it reminds me of the awesome trip and country and my wish to go back there.. Anyway... we did visit Universal Studios in Japan. Home to an awesome version of Jaws (i did not understand a single word, but it was so much better then the US version due to the acting/panic and it being in Japan ) But also home to a fun coaster called Hollywood Dream : The ride enjoy
cfc Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Universal Osaka is an excellent "greatest hits of Universal" park--with the added bonus of Hollywood Dream (and this is an especially good picture of a very photogenic coaster).
ernierocker Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Europa Park looks fantastic during Christmas. And with all the heat and sun we've had lately, I really appreciate the rain photo, Hanno.
Hhappy Posted May 29, 2012 Author Posted May 29, 2012 Time for a bit more Japan Parque Espana is home to one of the best B&M coasters out there.. Pyrenees it was a hot day.. but we basically had the park to ourselve. So that resulted in plenty of rides on this lovely coaster. enjoy.
Meteornotes Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 Pyrenees is an amazing coaster, one of the best inverts in the world. dt
SharkTums Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 The bus parking at the entrance to that coaster is still one of the funniest things from a TPR Trip ever!
gisco Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 Love that coaster. I liked the rubber bands you could get to keep your shoes from flying off.
cfc Posted May 29, 2012 Posted May 29, 2012 I think it's right up there with Nemesis--a great ride in a rather remote location.
Hhappy Posted May 30, 2012 Author Posted May 30, 2012 The bus parking at the entrance to that coaster is still one of the funniest things from a TPR Trip ever! That is something i will never forget, so random and so amazing that this happened (and i was there ) anyway.. Time for another amazing moment. I have been to Cedar Point only once (so far) but that visit in 07 was interesting. After arriving at the park/hotel the evening before in total darkness with a power failure for the entire area we managed to get some sleep and line up for Maverick the next morning.. And then this is the view we got... After a couple of hours of rain and short dry periods all the rides started to open again and there were hardly any lines left in the park. All credits in a single afternoon is not a bad score i guess (i think the rides started opening around 4pm and the park closed at 10pm) I'll go back to Cedar Point someday, but it would be nice if something new and interesting would be installed first
SharkTums Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 I remember seeing that 'wall of doom' weather approaching and being very thankful we were staying on site at Hotel Breakers!
mikeykaise Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 It looked like to me mountains covered in clouds but there's no mountains anywhere close to Cedar point.... awesome pics again Hanno.
Godwyn Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 It looks like a gigantic tidal wave is approaching. It pretty much dumped water on us like a tidal wave. I remember getting back to the hotel and having to ring water out of my socks. Even my name badge filled up with water.
gisco Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 That is a pretty awesome picture Hanno. Mother Nature can really create some great photo opportunities.
RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 It looked like to me mountains covered in clouds but there's no mountains anywhere close to Cedar point.... awesome pics again Hanno. Agreed. I'm so used to seeing mountains that my mind automatically goes, "Mountains" but I have to keep telling myself that there are no mountains around there. It's really trippy... not sure what it is. Really cool/weird though!
RoCo Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 Even with that freaky Santa, Winter-Mir looks incredible. I sure wish more inverted Beemers had loop-threading spirals. That is awesome. Must ride someday. Bug-eating kid on El Toro is indeed very, very funny. Lake Erie weather is SCARY!! (Love this thread.)
