robbalvey Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 (edited) http://www.themeparkreview.com/orlando2005/memday/bgt/bgt1.htm Now that our Europe update is out of the way, the DVD is done, I can go back and start doing updates from parks we hit during the year. This update focues on Sheikra during our visit in May, and there's also a couple of pages from WDW and IOA. I have to say I was pretty tired while writing this, so if it all sounds pretty random...that's why! I hope you guys like the caption! --Robb "Next udpates....Typhoon Lagoon, Ocean Park, Wisconsin Dells & more!" Alvey Edited October 15, 2005 by robbalvey
coasterfreak101 Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 That was funny! I enjoyed reading! I liked the Jimmy Neutron ride, is that the Nick Studios that is gone? If so, that sucks! I aslo E-Mailed the complaint department just because the subject "I don't like powdered toast man" was hilarious !!!
robbalvey Posted October 13, 2005 Author Posted October 13, 2005 Jimmy Neutron is still there, it's the Nick Studios Tour that has been taken out. --Robb
Thrasher Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Except they left all the paint up on the sides of the building, so its very confusing! Great update as always. Nice to see BGT is TPR friendy. Seeing that picture of the Hulk makes we want to go and get some more of that B&M bliss! Great TR!
Meteornotes Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 I will be emailing the Complaint Department on a daily basis. Thanks for providing the link! dt
dandaman Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Being completely truthful on this one... but in my sister's opinion, El Rio Del Tiempo (Mexican boat ride) is the best ride ever! She always heads straight for it as soon as World Showcase opens... I just run to get FP's for Soarin'.
Homer Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Nice photoshops in the BGT department , they never have that good of operations... Great update.
Chrissie Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Great Pics! Cant wait to get back in Florida!
Hattuchili Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Wow, great pictures, Robb. It looks like you really had a lot of fun! The water ride photos were so funny. You was the only one, who was not really wet, right! That was only good luck!? --Sören
CoasterFanatic Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Great TR! // Catrina and I are honored to finally be immortalized in a TPR TR!
cfc Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Good stuff, as usual, Robb. Have to get back down to Florida to check out Sheikra and Expedition Everest--maybe next fall. And to to score some more Beverly--it's both a cool drink and a refreshing after shave. Chuck "Never mix Beverly with Cherry Coke" Campbell
jackskellington101 Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Great stuff as normal Robb. Expect nothing but the best. Good use of Photochop contest too! I wonder how the Beverly will be effected by the removal of Ice Station Cool to Club Cool. From what I've heard, the vending machines will be gone in this new thing. So no more Beverly.

DerekRx Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Nice Photos. Just in time to get me psyched up to head back down next week. Best picture wasn't the vertical loop though, I give that to the "REVENGE OF THE TURTLE", truly awesome!
RCTfan Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Yes, I am famous now! I'm in a TPR photo TR! If you'd like an autograph, please private message. Prices vary: Just an autograph: 9.95 Autograph ON the picture, 19.95 ACT NOW and I'll throw in a free straw and MAYBE a dixie cup. An offer like this should not be passed up. Great TR. I was saddened to be moved to Soarin, especially when you came looking for me at the Living Seas. Well, next time we'll get it straight!
AllisonY2K Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 "Hey. Who are you waving at? I'm down here...DOWN HERE!!!" *sigh* best caption in that whole TR. lol. great, great pics...as always. I can never decide which is better: the pics or the captions. sometimes I have to flip a coin. ~Allison "forgot which one 'tails' was" Y2K~
Erik Johnson Posted October 13, 2005 Posted October 13, 2005 Great Photo TR as always. Holy crap, was I seeing things on how close two of the SheiKra cars were? They usually wait until the first car is at least dropping down the 2nd drop (into the hole) before dropping the car on the big drop. Yeah BGT has great ride operations (except Gwazi and Rhino Rally).

Pelydr Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 Nice update! Sheikra looks great, and although I havent ridden too many B&M's Kumba is still my favorite as well.
CoasterCrazy88 Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 Great update guys! Sheikra looks awesome. That's all I can really say about it. I'm looking forward to seeing the other updates soon. BTW, I don't mean to be a bother, but I wanted to know, when is the SFMM meet update coming? Antonio" Kumba looks great too!"G.
blackcurrent Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 you guys frickin rule..... great update look forward to the next one...... have you seen te official park dvd of Sheikra that you get..... it SUCKS!!!
Nrthwnd Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 Looks like you've discovered a new meal sensation... "Powdered Toast with - The Beverly" Oooo yum. Good TR R&E. ~ ~ ~ ~
CoasterCrazy Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 Great Update! I need to get back down to Florida soon, I have new credits waiting for me at every park! I emailed Dan, I think I know what the quote is from. What does Dan do with all the emails he gets?
AllisonY2K Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 I wonder what the Beverly tastes like mixed with vodka. ..and we did this on one of the Disney boards get-togethers a few years ago, so it might be fun for TPR to do one as well. an EPCOT "Drink Around the World". Yup, one tasty alcoholic beverage per country. We started in UK and went counter-clockwise. I was pretty much incoherent by the time we got to Mexico. and then to top it off we all went to the ESPN on Boardwalk and drank some more. but, a lot of water, a few excedrin migraine tablets and a good night's sleep and I was fine the next day. just a thought....
CoasterFanatic Posted October 14, 2005 Posted October 14, 2005 What does Dan do with all the emails he gets? Why don't you just email him and ask him? mrt0ad13@aol.com
robbalvey Posted October 14, 2005 Author Posted October 14, 2005 ^ He forwards them to us...along with emails from him like: Damn you fuckers I've got like 15 of these friggin emails tonight! So as you can see it's WELL worth clicking on those "Email Dan" links! --Robb
