PHL-Freak Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 Weee, my first trip report So, today I went to Phantasialand. First of all, it was REAL empty, which I loved. The max. wait time was 3 minutes or something like that. Some of the coasters (Colorado and Temple of the Night Hawk) were doing not so well (Temple did sh*t), but all the other rides were okay. So, I don't know what to say more, I'll just post my photos. If you want to see some Black Mamba construction photos, go to that thread. I hope you have fun with that update and I hope, too, that you can imagine how much cooler Phantasialand will get when they have Black Mamba running EDIT: Sorry about the bad quality of the photos, I don't have a real digicam... At the end I saw casa Magnetica, a weird show in a house which is built very weird ...just like the Winja's. (I rode each of them 9 times three weeks ago). River Quest, the rafting ride, is too wet, so I didn't ride it... THAT elephant tolds you ALL the time that you should throw garbage into him! NO JOKE! But that dragon was eating people all the time! Then I went to the not-dueling dragon (Okay, that joke was bad...) I get airtime every time when I splash down the hills..(?!?!) Then I rode the highlight of the day: THE LOG FLUMES!! I'm a true log flume-enthusiast... There are dolphins and whales everywhere at the entry. Then I went to Atlantis, which is themed completely new. (Because of the new film ,,Race for Atlantis") Yeah, it was THAT empty all the day! Started the day with Colorado.
PHL-Freak Posted April 10, 2006 Author Posted April 10, 2006 Maybe it's interesting when I say something about Race for Atlantis. It's the same film as in Las Vegas (Caesar's palace afaik). The theming of the q-line is bad, they have just installed some lasers which show some water illusions. The ceiling etc. is just like it was 12 years ago: It's a real space-ceiling. In winter, they had some really nice-looking figures of the competitors in the race. But I'm wonedering why they put the 4 figures out of the q-line?! Now there's nothing special at the long q-line. When you watch the first pre-show (which is translated), you can't see the first floor. Unfortunately, they built a wall where the q-line goes up to the first floor The Galaxy-themed walls are still everywhere, they are just overpainted. But the paints look awesome! There's a "map" of Atlantis painted, a few shots of Atlantis and so on...When you enter the room where the actual film will be, you hear no music, you see no lights. There's NOTHING. If you go to the exit, you see some other paintings of Atlantis. All in all I'd say that the theming's (Well, WHERE the theming is) well done. But there are still many places where there's nothing.
