Well here we go!

 

Last weekend it was a long weekend here in Holland, and that was a great excuse to visit some German park! First up was Holiday 'Plopsa' Park, home to the best steel coaster in Europa! Do you know which one? Expedition GeForce ofcourse!

 

But you already knew that didn't you? If you didn't know, go shame yourself in a corner...

 

Now lets get it on with photo's!

But first, some Vekoma horror... :devil:

EP-10.thumb.jpg.80b01c5fff02c6cbc7f8af11c67cff19.jpg

Satan is waiting for you at the end of this lift! Why did they sell more of these?

EP-11.thumb.jpg.ced75a1fa0497b08cfcaec92c2144516.jpg

This is by far the best part of the ride...

EP-12.thumb.jpg.9626c6441ec96b9bee5242599d50332f.jpg

I quote: 'The best ride in the park!'

EP-13.thumb.jpg.020330714839df8af1ad7d29731e40e5.jpg

Second quote: 'but how about that coaster over there?'

EP-14.thumb.jpg.f72dd73a4793c2f9507bfcac1a0d8941.jpg

Wow! Plopsa, plopsa, plopsa...

EP-15.thumb.jpg.1559845cd1a693df7094d9464da1e585.jpg

I'm building the future woodie! Yes, it will be an Intamin, and will be the new best coaster of the park!

EP-16.thumb.jpg.a7d8b16dea97cec7259ff060f5a8baa2.jpg

Need any help with that coaster?

EP-17.thumb.jpg.b1336a416eb319c041b743e15a092c92.jpg

Mmm... They also added more food!

EP-18.thumb.jpg.5a186f31928c9bf3adab1c64070f558f.jpg

EP-25.thumb.jpg.77d9a4f2b2057eb4fdbe5cf07d0e1783.jpg

I see you Bluefire!

EP-30.thumb.jpg.86e22287662891ad28ad4423e5f869d2.jpg

Did I already mention the tunnels really add to the ride?

EP-31.thumb.jpg.75ece3e2cdd9ba8d50c9451ac153e393.jpg

Up Next! Bluefire, or not? Nope... not yet! Up next?

EP-35.thumb.jpg.68fe2e85663134a55817197f85bc85cf.jpg

Foodloop! As we already were hungry, mostly because we didn't enter the park at opening...

EP-32.thumb.jpg.73c91c032dc82d2b01c32b19a0928a79.jpg

Still a fun way to order your food.

EP-33.thumb.jpg.859b9401825ef58b9b78c50adf766078.jpg

Mmm... Wiener Snitzel!

EP-36.thumb.jpg.53e1731ecd7bd4166b4f9798f75e4ef4.jpg

After a long lunch we decided to head back towards Iceland!

EP-37.thumb.jpg.37763e3e34d80c645190b30d26cd9dd6.jpg

It does doesn't seem like a long trip going from Portugal towards Iceland. Only in Europa Park...

EP-39.thumb.jpg.e2a14192a568d48338dfbf7a7aabc234.jpg

The Wodan/Atlantica money shot...?

EP-43.thumb.jpg.08fe1a4e6fa77e4548d9bab4d8867da3.jpg

Feel the speed...

EP-44.thumb.jpg.f258dcd88735a62ccda316f776837c66.jpg

...into the best part of the ride!

EP-46.thumb.jpg.8114fa8bbe5333f581ced0b3a391739e.jpg

And after a last ride on one of the many funny little darkrides! It was time for a 'Wiener Snitzel Dinner' in a local restaurant...

EP-48.thumb.jpg.f0521ecaa57784627e94f7bbd3b60ee6.jpg

Well after that dinner, we could head back into the park to take on last quick ride... Or?

EP-49.thumb.jpg.ca718ba53f0129d639327ea54326870d.jpg

Or take the monorail towards...

EP-50.thumb.jpg.eb4dc095794bf2f77012123b9ced8fea.jpg

...The Cocktail Bar!

EP-51.thumb.jpg.1e4e094756dc3f21302bc8506e4bd3f5.jpg

In the lobby we found this!

EP-52.thumb.jpg.b98035037d6a4df609290b58b2013db9.jpg

It's one amazing coaster model to see...

EP-53.thumb.jpg.0416899a912801d776ea22374cb1208f.jpg

EP-55.thumb.jpg.5d76dd9e3df5b21c3be35037c2553e76.jpg

And the best part? It's HUGE!

EP-56.thumb.jpg.27a022506fdd7a6a65747d1687b0ac85.jpg

Also the watershow started sometime later, this was the first time i could see it. I've to say: It's Beautifull!

EP-57.thumb.jpg.cc1b27671f9896a3b8817a736146263b.jpg

After the show, we still had time enough to get waisted!

EP-58.thumb.jpg.ee6ba6f2ca9ef5ec57f2b52c9ab0b714.jpg

Bye Bye Cocktail Bar! See you again next time...

First step of making wine? You drop your guests when tilted!

EP-63.thumb.jpg.2e2a5e45877bfe0c7f00436d60d135bd.jpg

Then put them in a barrel, and spin them round-and-round!

EP-64.thumb.jpg.5f772b7c52bfc9005f475e389bd84e79.jpg

After the old guest got their hands on the wine, they drank it al and ride the kiddie coaster frontseat!?

Mammut isn't that exciting but I'm a big fan of that Gerstlauer Bobsled coaster. Whenever people speculate about coasters fitting into small footprints in the US, I wish that one of these would be built.

^Exactly--I like those Gerstlauer Bobsleds, too (particularly the one at Tripsdrill).
