  1. 1. Ride roller coaster. 2. Get stung by bee. 3. ?????? 4. Profit
  2. I'm 6'6" (198 cm), and didn't have any issues. I didn't see a max height posted anywhere, either. Enjoy!
  3. It's an odd system. You need a mobile phone, but it isn't an app. The website is: https://www.walibifastlane.nl/ We were originally going to buy the silver pass, but ended up only needing to skip the line for 3 rides, so we just bought them individually. My debit card wasn't working on the website, so we actually went to Guest Services and paid them there, then they approved our purchase on the site, and we were able to use my phone for 7 of us in the party. It works pretty well once you have things set up.
  4. Probably a futile question, but I figured I'd give it a shot. I've been trying to purchase my 2 day ticket online for my visit (so I can book the express pass rides), but the site seems to have issues processing my order. My friend in Australia was also having issues. I've tried it a few times over the last couple of weeks with no luck. Has anyone had luck using a US credit card with Liseberg's site? My card has worked on about 10 other European park sites, so it isn't an issue with my card or bank.
  5. Interesting. I was there right at 10 on opening day, and they weren't doing it. Glad it only took them 30 minutes to figure it out! I live in Waukee. Been in the area about 20 years since I moved here for college (Simpson grad).
  6. ^ Good updates. I was at the park yesterday, and one other thing that they've improved is having an employee making sure that there are 8 people in each car. Calling out for singles, etc. seems to have improved the efficiency since opening day. Sadly, after losing 10 more pounds, I'm still "this" close to riding. They actually had it locked yesterday, but there was an issue in the 2nd row, so they released the restraints, then we couldn't get it back into the OK position. I leave for Europe in 9 days, and would like to ride The Monster before I leave town...
  7. Enjoying the report. Glad you enjoyed Adventureland. The beer selection is indeed impressive. There have been a ton of local breweries popping up lately, and they're all pretty decent.
  8. I'd really try for both! Tornado at Bakken is definitely worth the trip, there is a part on it that is INSANE! I have been to both parks and I'm thinking if you are a coaster guy, I'd head to Bakken. BUT Tivoli can't be missed either! Also is the new ride open at the park?? I agree with Chris, which is rare. If you're looking for more of a coaster experience, then I think Bakken is just a little bit better. Tivoli is one of my favorite parks in the world, but in terms of coasters it's somewhat lacking. The more I think about it, you could do both in a day. There's a train station about a mile away from Bakken, and it runs directly to Tivoli (Central Station). Just make sure you hold on to your ticket, right Chris? Start at Bakken in the morning, then head to Tivoli in the late afternoon. Seeing it at night is well worth it.
  9. I can't figure out how to embed this video, but here's the link. Wow.
  10. I'm enjoying the report. I've only been to Kings Island once, in 2013, and was pretty underwhelmed. It seems like a lot has changed just in those 3 years based on multiple reports that I've seen. I will say that I really liked Diamondback. I have it ranked the highest of the newer B&M hypers. Still not as good as Nitro, Apollo's etc, but it's a great ride.
  11. It really wasn't that busy at park opening on Saturday, at least the first couple of hours when I was there. I assumed it would be WAY more crowded with the new ride opening.
  12. I'm old, so I'm probably 80-20 computer to mobile. Facebook is about the only thing I'll look at with my iPhone, along with an occasional login with tapatalk if one of my subscribed threads has been replied to.
  13. I'm not sure when I'll be able to get out there again for nighttime pictures/video. The only video I've seen so far was posted on Gerstlauer's Facebook page. I can't access it from work, so I can't help right now. It looks really cool, though,
  14. Yes! I was starting to get worried that these wouldn't be open in time for my visit on July 16th. Glad to see that it looks like everything will be ready to go. Awesome!!!
