RollercoasterTigger Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 After my short visit in May this year, my family decided they would like to visit this park. So we planned a 1 night stay to spend 2 days at the park. After a very early start to the day and an early flight we arrived in Sweden early enough to go and visit the largest Ikea store whilst we waited for Gröna Lund to open at 3pm. We headed across Stockholm city centre (which took about 45 mins from our hotel) and once we had our entry wristbands headed off to ride the two kiddie coasters first. On my last visit the park was so busy that I wasn't able to get the credit for these. The weather wasn't great (heavy rain for most of our stay) however, during our time in the park the weather was kind to us and it stopped raining on both days. We managed to get all the rides done within an hour as we appeared to be the only people in the park. We stayed for 3 hours and headed back to the hotel to find somewhere to eat in the evening. Our hotel was near a large shopping/entertainment centre so they had plenty of food choices for us. Next day was somewhat a repeat of the day before but we took all the camera so we could do some filming/photographs before leaving for the airport. Anyway, enough of me jabbering, photos...... Bye Bye Stansted airport Hello Soggy Sweden Big Ikea Nyckelpigan - the best kiddie coaster ever Tea Cup fun Jetline Jetline The back of Jetline More Jetline Twister - one of the best woodies Twister Insane Insane We saw this alot of the weekend - staff brushing the water away.

Philrad71 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Thanks for sharing, but sorry that the rain dampened your adventure a bit. Grona Lund and Liseberg are both on my bucket list of must-visit parks...I'm envious!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
