[MechanicCan you see the donkey in my toast?]

Oh yeah, maybe I forgot to mention the most important thing about this themepark. At the topleft on the parkmap you see 'naaktstrand' mentioned. 'Naaktstrand' means 'nude beach' ..... this must be the only themepark in the world having a nude beach in the park

I'll never believe that without photographic evidence.

[msep003The best thing about TPR is the donkeys.]

Where in Belgium this park is ?

Where in Belgium this park is ?

Nowhere. Its in the Netherlands!

[robinschroderWhen I grow up, I want to breed donkeys!]

Such a shame you didn't get to ride the coaster - it looks so strange! RCDB says 'This is being called an "Energy Free" coaster. It will use solar power as well as power generated by cross trainers operated by waiting riders.' - how unique!

Groetjes!

Thanks for the comments.
Sorry, no pictures from the nude beach. I don't think anyone was there either because the weather wasn't like summer should be.

The park is indeed not in Belgium but in the north of the Netherlands, close to Eindhoven.

The coaster must be custom designed, I didn't do my research though. But like Robin wrote, Hans explained me during our visit that it indeed a energy free coaster. That also why the exit is on the ground so that the lifthill doesn't have to pull cars with people in.

Its an ABC coaster I believe, and it's a custom. There is a flat part between the station and first drop, to give riders the same feeling as a lifthill ('Oh no, theres the drop, hold on!')

After Billybird, we drove to Dippie Doe park, another small park near Eindhoven

Main reason for our day out was the Marky Ramone's Blitzkrieg concert in Tilburg that same evening. I've always been a fan of the Ramones and since MRB is the closest one can get to the Ramones, we didn't want to miss this concert.
The singer is now the ex-Misfits leadsinger Michael Graves.
