V&PTR: Trip to Gröna Lund (Stockholm)

Hi!

Here's a small Photo Trip Report, and a 10 minute Video Report.

My trip started on Tuesday the 26th of June, and ended the 27th.

I had fun on Tuesday, but on Wednesday it was raining, then on Thursday it was sunny, but I had to catch the train home on that day.

Ok, came into the park and found a carusel and some games.

And I found a Ladybird coaster.

Something tells me I was in the kiddie section of the park.

But then I found to my left the bigger rides.

So I passed through a games area (that was also a bridge)

and found a horse...

And a food place.

I think I'm going in the right direction because the coasters are infront of me.

Eventually I got there.

Saw some interesting things, like a very small Ferris wheel.

(No doubt credit whores would like to try and cramb themselves in that. )

There was also a stage there, but nothing was happening at the moment.

Men, ORK!

Only us Swedes will get this one.

This was an interesting ride.

There was something fermiliar about how it operated.

Reminded me of a certain Juke Box.

Don't know why, but I wanted a picture of this one.

Oh and to all groups who might be going to Gröna Lund, it says on the sign:

"Start Here"

"Bellmansros Outdoor Café"

"Bar - Music - Meeting Place"

A nice little place to wait for the remaining memebers of a group.

And that's all the pictures I took. Thought I'd have tomorrow as well, but aparently not.

Anyway, vids can be found in many different places.

Either go YouTubing here:

Or download a DivX 6.6.1 AVI here: http://bleuf.org:37600/edshare/GronaLund-20070626/Gronan.avi

Or the streaming attachment.

Sorry Edward,

I finally got the photos working.

Nice report, I was interested in visiting here and couldn't find much about it, but this certainly helps.

cool TR man, that ferris wheel kicks ass.

Their new vekoma jounior suspended looks really fun.

Was there 2 weeks after Kvasten (The Broomstick) opened and the ride had pretty jerky lateral movements, due to firm shocks. Is it running more smoothly with a couple of months run time under it's belt?

Anyway, nice TR.

Anyway, nice TR.

The ride was smooth when I was there.

^^Well Loefet, Kwasten is the smoothest ride EVER! Seriously, it Beats all B&M's and Intamin woodies I've ridden.

I was at GL yesterday and I found Kvasten to be a bit shaky in some parts, but still very smooth compared to most of the other kiddie coasters out there.

Men orka

lolzo

btw Grönan sucks hell

Jetline suck too

^ That's nice to know.

Great Photo TR! It looks like a pretty cool little park, Jetline especially looks really cool.
