“THE SW8 IS OVER!” Alton Towers, Sat 17 March

[Ian]

According to hotel receptionist: Park is open 10-3 today, no creds, Fishlife/CBBC only. Not looking good for creds but clinging on to hope that they will open and the message hasn’t got to hotel staff yet. Sunshine and cloudy sky at park.

Latest official update from the park is the same message sadly.

How is it going?

Kept checking the forecast this morning but it just looked gross. Shame.

Hex was open and Fish Life. There was snow. It was cold, but we got comp tickets.

This concludes today's trip report.

The SW8 continues?
Such a weird day and the ultimate spite, but at least we got free return tickets out of it.
Was nice meeting everyone again!

I actually had a great day, won't lie - it was hilarious, we rode the Rockin' Tug in a casual blizzard, I had pizza pasta, I rode Hex, I got a free ticket to return... what more do I want?

Me. Probably.

I'm thinking Blackpool weekend could be an idea. We managed a full cred run rocking up at one in 2016 (March tho).
