Yes, that is right! The TPR Spain Trip 2007 has officially begun! Part 1 - Arrival and Parque de Atracciones Madrid w/ Abismo Video (Scroll Down) Part 2 - Isla Magica w/ SLC Video Part 3 - Back to Parque de Atracciones Madrid! Part 4 - Parque de Atracciones Zaragoza w/ Bouncy Bouncy Video! Part 5 - PortAventura Photos! Part 6 - More PortAventura Photos & Furius Baco Video! Part 7 - Tibidabo Photos Part 8 - Festilandia & Benidorm Part 9 - Terra Mitica Photos and Magnus Colossus Video Part 10 - Parque Warner Madrid w/ Superman Video Mini-Europe Trip: Part 1 - Klotten, Germany Photos Part 2 - Tripsdrill, Germany - Photos & Coaster POV Video Part 3 - Holiday Park, Germany Photos & Coaster Video Part 4 - Toverland Update with Troy POV Video Part 5 - Phantasialand Photos After a bit of some trouble with our arrival flight (we were 6 hours delayed in Newark), we arrived in plenty of time to meet and greet everyone on the trip and head out to our "Day Zero" (un-official first day of the trip) destination "Parque de Atracciones Madrid." All I'm going to say about our day here is that we had nearly a Magic Springs "stuck upside down" moment. (you need to watch the video and you'll find out the story!) Overall it was a really great day! Over half of the trip members arrived in time for this bonus day at the park (we'll be back there again on Sunday). All the coasters were running and the park was EMPTY! I will spare you all the random details and just get right to the photos. We will be doing daily photo (and video if possible) "mini" updates, and will do a full blown HUGE MO-FO trip update when we get back. So for now....enjoy!

(Downloadable version at the bottom of this update)  Viewed:  29759 Time(s)  Description: On our flight to Newark we had "Pizza In A Bag." It was most awesome.  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Although our flight to Madrid wasn't so cool. It kept getting pushed back and finally took off at 4am, 6 hours late. :(  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: They did give us meal vouchers, so at 1:15am Jeff had a deep fried ham & cheese sandwich and a bottle of ketchup. DEATH!!!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: We sat another couple of hours until we finally boarded. Once on the flight, it did go pretty smoothly and we got into Madrid just fine...  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Hey! Those guys look oddly familiar!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Ed found Oreos and he was happy. But the picture of Lou has "Wes Photoshop me" written ALL over it! =)  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Back at the hotel it's time to welcome the rest of the trip members and head out to the first park!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Today was a little different instead of heading out on a bus, we decided to take the train....and....um.....see how many TPR memebers we can decapitate at once!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: "Ok, who farted?"  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Yay! We have made it to our first park! Part 1 of Parque de Atracciones Madrid. (We're back here on Sunday with the entire group!)  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: This is one of those "X-Coaster" thingy's that just got stuck upside down at Magic Springs...I hope we have better luck!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: After the Drayton Manor one we rode last year, we were really dreading this ride, but honestly, it was REALLY good!!! That airtime hill is INSANE!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: "Um...it is supposed to stop like this?" Would you believe it....WE BROKE the coaster!!!! (Watch the video for proof!) =)  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: We got in all the other credits...BIG thumbs up to Tarantula....  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Torando was fun and "Scaffolding Free" this year!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: The "Lou's Boob" credit was worth the 2 E-Tickets...  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: ...and honestly Bob, Kristie was falling down and everyone was just trying to help her stay up!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: The "Shooting 4D Motion theater" was way too bizarre to even describe. All I know is that it shook a lot, some very random western amimations popped up with pictures of us, and Jay got turned into a Donkey!!! WTF?!?!  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: "Touch my ass again punk and I'll pump you full of lead!"  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Nothing says "traditional Spanish cuisine" like theme park pizza! =)  Viewed:  29758 Time(s)  Description: Back in the hotel, time to pack all 48 people into the elevator, get some rest, and it's off to Isla Magica tomorrow! Check back tomorrow night for more updates!  Viewed:  29759 Time(s) abismo_tpr.zip  Description: Abismo video for download!

The baggage claims are a nightmare there. Great TR so far...one broken X-Car...at least it wasn't upside down. _________________
