rider-x Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I really enjoyed the park. GeForce was awesome. Looking back on it I kinda enjoyed us waiting around waiting to see if it was going to run for ert. Every time the catch car moved an inch 50 crazed tpr cats started cheering in the rain. It was fun. Thank god Robb told us to ride it early. Great tip. The reversible log flume was killer too. (for me el toro is still #1 but that could have been because of the incredible ert session we had) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Thriller Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Holiday Park looks MUCH better now. I'm very impressed And I'm glad GeForce is running without the breaks. I can't wait to ride it again. Â --James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas2 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Awesome pictures as always Hanno! Â How busy was it actually? How long did you have to wait for EGF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider-x Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 it was about 20 minutes when we first got there. Some of us crafty people got 2 rides in a row by hopping back on the empty seats while the rest of us obeyed protocol by calmly exiting the ride (cough cough wink wink Talone) the longest line I waited in was for the flume and that was about 25 min. We all waited about 2 hrs. after the park closed to see if they could get the catch car down from the top of the lift. Alas they could not.

televisedconfession Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I do want to publicly commend the staff of this park. They really worked hard to have us get in another ride in for ERT, and while they waited, they gave us Ice Cream and Beer (they knew the best way to TPR's heart!). They were all so friendly and helpful. I really enjoyed this park. It was a great day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider-x Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 I wholeheartedly agree neil. The park staff was as cool and gracious as any could be. They were so apologetic with a situation we all knew was out of their control. Opening up the food stall so that we could get more beer and free ice cream was awesome. I keep saying that it's non scheduled things that happen during a tpr trip that I look back on and enjoy the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Awesome pictures of the park! I had a great time there; I like how hidden the park is in the forest, it has nice theming in the new family area, and the rides are top notch. Oh yeah, and Expedition GeForce is now my new favorite coaster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhappy Posted July 31, 2012 Author Share Posted July 31, 2012 This might end up being the biggest update i've posted on TPR.  So yeah, Europapark is one of my favorite parks in the world. I just love spending time there and during every single visit i see new things. This time the weather started not really perfect.. but during the day the clouds cleared out and blue skies was al we got to look at Blue skies are awesome, especially when doing backstage tours. Perfect weather is always welcome when you get to see some unique angles in a park (and unique coaster angles )  Pictures posted in the order that they were taken, hope you enjoy them.

krazekiddd Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I really wish I could explain to everyone how amazing this park is.

It was all just so awesome. Great photos Hanno! I miss this place so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 After a few more hours at Europa Park the next day we got to drive to Fort Fun. As i had been to the park already (a while back) i was looking forward to hearing from everybody what their opinion was of the park and see what had changed. Â The park had not changed much, some new things.. not that much removed/changed and all in all a fun couple of hours at this park. Â Dinner/BBQ at the end of the day was an awesome way to end the day. Â Here's a few pictures from this visit. just in case you were wondering where we are a lot of green trees in the area hmm, coaster still not sure what the mystery was and no.. the park is not flat at all terror cookie "new" climbing structure wild eagle with some random riders the biggest coaster at the park.. and a ride included 2 laps on this.. ehm.. contraption yeah, been there.. done that looks like another coaster some random theming yeah, kiddie time that's a pretty long train old school car thing last look going up hill is tough.. and this was still the easy bit.. skloosh getting ready for the steep climb but it was worth it for this mountain coaster anyway, here's the big surprise for this park it looks so innocent and kind of pretty people seemed to enjoy it the chair lift to the observation platform was closed during this visit... anyway, back to the coaster.. first ride expression and here's the second try that's a lot of airtime yup, looks like they enjoyed the ride wild eagle time are those white knockles??? coming down looks like it was fun best part of the day ?!?!?!? a picture says more then an thousand words.. Best part of the day i really really like this drop and food is always good. Thanks for reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
