It's that time again..
what time??

Time for another update.

Day 9 started with a visit to Tripsdrill.

My first visit to this park was last year during the mini-europe trip... and i loved it..
I stopped at the park on my way back from Austria in February to check the progress on the new woodie named Mammut..
I drove 5 hours for a quick visit in April..

And now there's the mainland europe trip visit.

Every time i visit this place i see new things, plenty to do.. and plenty to see and so on..

I can continue talking about this place for a long time..

so let's put on some pictures.. Hope you like them..

Just to put peoples minds at rest. The shades survived no harm came to them until Holiday Park.

I have to say i LOVED Tripsdrill, I had so much fun there. Any place that has boobs there, i'm happy :P

Great photos as usual Hanno

Hanno - I confess that your pics of Mammut makes me think about it again. The one thing that threw me completely was how everybody came back into the station in total silence before I rode and I was very perturbed :roll: (give me something people Good? BAD? - but don't give me SILENCE). Anyway having taken on board Normans comments I think he should be pretty pleased with your photo results. For sure it will not light my fire but I guess it highlights his point.

This was a great day anyway and I can't be more happy than with that =)

I prefer to mate with donkeys over humans!

I forgot what was said after that jolt on the lift, but it sure got the best of me!

EDIT: I remember. We thought we broke the coaster on the first ride of the day!

Day 9.. Part 2
Holiday Park

I checked out the place at the end of april of this year (on the same day as Tripsdrill) and i was very worried after riding EGF that day..

Rain was coming (but not yet there) while i was on the ride that day.. and the ride itself.. well.. it did not come near how it was this day (and it did feel worse to me then the year before..)....
But that's my personal opinion...

Today it was running amazing and i guess i experienced it the way it was meant to be running..

What a ride...

here are some pictures..

I would have liked one more hour in the park. For the flume ride. For a few of the other flats.

For more ERT on GeForce, lol.

Great time at Holiday Park.

Thanks for helping me see what I missed and need to go on when I get there again, Hanno.

Barrel Ride! ;)
