It’s actually not as bad as it sounds. But being early is definitely an advantage. It makes way more sense to be there quite a bit before opening and leave earlier than vice versa. With that it mind the usually works out in your favour. Tokyo Disney doesn’t need to prioritise visitor numbers...

One Train Service and a 60 minute wait - Oceanpark Hong Kong As mentioned before, we made the spontanous descision to not head to Disneyland for a second (full) day, but to Ocean Park Hong Kong instead. With the great public transport in Hong Kong it was convinient and not to pricy. The park...

I guess my timing was a bit better, I just arrived after the holidays. And I also profited from the filming going on, which yielded multiple rides by itself. Luckily, the ops weren't that much of an issue with the lower crowds I experienced, but 20 minutes with 4 people worth of trains were a...

There is also a one-shot option in the App, but a One-shot costs the same as the last row, so one might argue that they're not worth it. Glad you got your rides, though, this beast is really something else. The good thing about all the construction and maintenance spites, you got a great reason...

Hong Kong Disneyland - will there be magic? As mentioned in the earlier report, I really realised what the Disney Magic is supposed to be after not having it in Shanghai. Would Hong Kong be different? The short answer: Yes. It all started with our arrival. We stayed at the Sheraton Tung Chung...

Shanghai Disneyland - where is the magic? I combine 2 days worth of experience here. Doesn't make much sense to review every attraction twice. I've been to Disneyland Paris 3 times in my life. One was as a little child, so that doesn't count. The other ones were 2 and 3 day stays respectively...

A bit of Sydney, and a Luna Park To be fair, there is not that much to say about this leg, but I wanted to keep the consistency with the rest. Also, I still have 6 more days for 2 more reports, that should be doable. We started our day in Sydney with a descision: Do we want to use public...

I disagree. It is very loud, pretty unpleasant but bearable. Since they made the cattle-pen larger, you will likely have at least 2 shows of it. My watch always complains about dangerous levels of noise when I am in there.

Sea World Australia Disclaimer: Due to filming for CoasterStats, we were able to skip the queues for a significant time of the day. We also got free admission (even though I had purchased our tickets weeks earlier). Sea World has quite an odd location, located on a narrow strip of land a decent...

Warner Bros. Movie World - awakening childhood memories Disclaimer: Due to filming for CoasterStats, we were able to skip the queues for a significant time of the day. We also got free admission (even though I had purchased our tickets weeks earlier). The next park was easily the one I was...

You can get access to Fantasy springs by obtaining a free Standby Pass (that is available on top of the free fast pass they offer) or by paying for Premier access (2000 Yen, about 13$) for any one attraction. Frozen is usually sold out first, with Rapunzel and Peter Pan following in that order...

Heading Down Under - Dreamworld Australia After a very tedious immigration procedure in Brisbane, which caused us to leave the airport 90 minutes later than expected, we quickly grabbed our rental car and drove down towards our first Australian theme park: Dreamworld. Dreamworld is currently...

Ferrari World, Warner Bros and SeaWorld Abu Dhabi on one day - running from ride to ride. Day 2 was originally just intended to be for Ferrari World, However, I knew that there is an option to upgrade our Ferrari World Ticket from the GoCity pass to a multipark ticket and did hope that we'd be...

So, to share my experiences (and also get some points for this years LOG), I decided to try making a trip report for my crazy tour this October/November. First, some backstory. I originally planned to finally head over the pond to visit the US East-Coast. After postponing this trip since 2020...

Black Magic 😃 We used a mod that allows for pretty much all Train-types to be placed on any ride. Yes, you could place a locomotive on an rollercoaster. Yes, that is a stupid thing to do. Yes, I did try it 😃 The mod also allows for LSMs to be placed on any coaster type, although the track will...

It’s happening. Prepare to F.L.Y away. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3354950178

Another week gone by, so how about a new picture? The "lift" is close to being finished, same goes for the darkride part itself. The only parts that are still looking bare in comparison are the station and the lockers. Yes, the ceiling isn't finished yet:

It's actually not that bad. It has got a bad jolt that might hurt your neck if you bang into the headrest, but otherwise it is a "normal" old Vekoma.

Holy smokes, it's been over a year since the last update! To be fair, we took yet another longer break from the project as it is really exhausting to build. However, with PlanCo 2 being close to being released, we decided to push this project to a release state before PlanCo 2 is released. We...

Their Family coasters are usually quite smooth, and their shaping was always good? I don‘t get your argument. It‘s a Gerstlauer, not a Golden Horse. The only issue with Gerstlauer are their Thrill-coasters. With every new one, they flip a coin to see if it‘s going to be a smooth ride or if every...
