^A woman?

Now I finally discovered your fasicination with those stand up drop rides.

Now c'mon! Elissa couldn't have had anything to do with the creation of that ride. Afterall, she's the one with the balls in that family.

[downunderWhy do I still have a donkey title???]

So everybody rode Michael Jackson? No wonder he's in a wheelchair now.

[thrillerman1Can you see the donkey in my toast?]

Thanks Robb for the great laugh at work today over the Bandit photos! I think we all were in severe pain. I do hope to see Steve and Lou's onride dvd again. It's priceless! Oh and thanks Divv for not hurling your Zombie on Bandit as I was sitting right behind you!

So everybody rode Michael Jackson? No wonder he's in a wheelchair now.

And I must confess.

At Phantasialand, they gave us each a couple of VIP Passes, which essentially gave us FastPasses to jump the lines of two rides...

And I used one for riding Michael - by entering through the ..... exit.



And thrillerman1 can verify this, as I became his ride chum for quite the bustin'bronc of a ride that Michael....gave, LOLOL!

Day 7. Part 2 - Schlossbeck

Many photos by Hanno. Some by Robb. Some by that weird yellow creature you'll see later on in this update.

Those trains on the kiddie SLC looked ultra comfy! Id be cool with those on the standard ones. You guys always have so much fun it makes me depressed to see you but at the same time it feels me with joy! Hahahaha Anyway awesome pics as usual

This is NOT the same Zombie served at Phantasialand, which has different rums and different fruit juices. However, it is close enough, and still a lethal drink of destruction.

mmmmm Dragon Bar Zombie! One of those deadly drinks like an Adios Mother F***er, Long Island Iced tea, Tokyo Tea, etc... that usually take two or three (if done right) to knock me off my feet.


WAAAAAAAH I'm sad I wasn't able to make it this year on the trip, but the parks visited look fantastic and most of all FUN! Just looking at the pics makes me remember all the great times on all the messed up things that you just can't do in the US.

I feel it should be pointed out in the list of drinks in the Dragon Bar the Zombie was stated to contain a rum which was 73%.

Steve thought it would be a good idea to get me one the next night but it was a different hotel and bar. I didnt feel I had to wait on a bench for some underpaid troll to bring my soul back during the next day so I'm guessing that Phantasialand wanted to make a drink that fits the name.


As for Schlossbeck Im gutted I missed the dark ride - spent the whole time in just half the park thinking there wasnt much on the other side.

And collossus, I didnt like it above the wheels but in the middle of the (6 seater) cars it was a great ride.

[KookyI wrote the book about donkeys!]

nice trip photos... i am new here but still looking since years in forum and read your reports, cause i`m little coaster enthusiast too. looks like you had a lot of fun in Europe....

hopefully there will follow some photos from "Europa Park", i lived next to this park but hadn`t enough time to go there the last 2 years. hope i can go there the next month and upload you some nice videos from the park, cause i like video making to!

Ben, I love you. That's all.

Oh, and I too missed the dark ride, hell, I didn't know until just now that there was one!! I thought it was just playground/do-it-yourself stuff on that side and I wasn't really feeling up to that (I'm sick of seeing myself post that phrase already ) so I didn't wander over much!
