That is it! I must convince my wife's relative to take us there!

We're going to Rio and Sao Paulo this February and some of wife's relatives do not live too far from Hopi Hari!

*spins in excitement!* I think I'll send them a link to this thread and say PLEAAASSEEEE! :)

Keep it up and looking forward to more of pictures.

Looks like a cool park, but the end was a bit creepy with the abandoned entrance plaza, haha. Great trip report.

looks like the park has some decent theming. I love those shuttle loops, but unfortunately i've only been on Montezooma's Revenge.

I don´t know if it is the King Kobra, but Katapul originally opened at Kings Dominion in 1977. Then the coaster went to the Jolly Roger Amusement Park for 2 years from 1987 to 1989. After that the coaster went to Alton Towers till it came to Hopi Hari in 1999.

Hopi Hari have a debt bigger than R$100 million( USD 50 million).
That's why Montezum(wood) is in a very bad shape.

I'd like to go on a Schwarzkopf shuttle loop with the old "Revolution" style loop. Oh, and your fiancee's friend is hot! :lolr:

First of all, let me congratulate you on the engagement!! I didn't know!

Second, enjoyed your trip report and laughed out loud at the ghetto Small World ride. Definitely looking forward to the next installment.
