| | | I noticed that too. Sounds like a good additon for a park that size. The layout of the SLC should be interesting too. I wish I could go to Europe next Summer. |

The motorbike is longer and faster than toverlands addition.

| | | I never even heard of this park. You learn something knew everyday.
But it seems all the parks are getting something for 2005. What a great year.

| | | Rita dosn't look that great, at least not as good as the motorbike racer. Shame then that the motobike racer will probably not get as much publicity. |

| | | Their website is so funny, it reminds me of RCT1&2 websites.
I want to get over there some day and hit all the parks. But that won't be for 5-10 years.

| | | Yea, going to England and the two low countries for a month, that would be great. You get roller coasters, sight seeing, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _, and just discovering a new place. |

| | | so beg your parents to take you there/here. you got the whole of europe to explore......but if you go to london theres loads of stuff to do as well as going to theme parks. Paris is only a 2.5 hr train ride (it goes under the water) away (or 45min flight). |

| | | I know about the chunnel, and the 180 MPH bullet trains already.
Well, see, my mom's very first Europe offer was indeed London, but she always manages to get out of it with some excuse, so I won't even bother. What's the closest amusement park to london, and how far timewise?
The Chunnel also has trains to Brussels right? And from there I'd go to Amsterdam, because I heard it's great "fun" there. But that wouldn't be with my mom, of course. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
