coastercrazed49 Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I really don't care what there is, but pepsi is what I usually prefer, its a little more sweeter. Â BTW Great update you guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xxhershey818xX Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Dear Robb, Â Yes we are taught how to capitilize and spell correctly in school. But its things like AIM and Myspace that have corrupted us (the youth of america) into thinking we can get away with these things in real life. Â Â Anywhos... love the update! It was a very good Thanksgiving Treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But its things like AIM and Myspace that have corrupted us Weird. I seem to be able to capitalize and spell correctly using AIM and Myspace just fine. Â I guess todays youth doesn't mind the stereotype of being uneducated and lazy? Â --Robb "I like how you spelled 'capitalize!'" Alvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantRevenge Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 ^ I do, I may be lazy but i'm by no means uneducated. Â Blue fall looks pretty scary(one of few rides that scare me) Maybe it's just that i'm not into drop tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunfire Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 I want to ride Blue Sex Fall so much! I've ridden Drop Zone at Great America, but it's only 224 feet tall. I'd love to ride Blue Fall in real life! Â And when it comes to Coke and Pepsi, I prefer Coke. While I like both, Pepsi tastes way too concentrated. Coke has just the right amount of sweetness.

I seem to be able to capitalize and spell correctly using AIM and Myspace just fine.  I guess today's youth doesn't mind the stereotype of being uneducated and lazy?  --Robb "I like how you spelled 'capitalize!'" Alvey  You're completely correct, Robb. Today's youth doesn't mind the stereotype.  I am an Assistant Principal in a high school, as well as an adjunct college professor. You should see the writing that I get from my students. It is absolutely awful! Somewhere, somehow, today's youth finds it acceptable to submit written work without capitalization, punctuation, or proper grammar. They see nothing wrong with writing in "IM Speak". And when you question their work ethic, they fight you, saying that there is nothing wrong with what they have given. I am glad to see you enforce this on your site. There are others that enforce this also, which I think is great.  Awesome trip report! How do you and Elissa do it with Kid Tums? My daughter is 17 months old, and she still doesn't sleep through the night!! It amazes me that you are able to so this with Kid Tums in tow! Kudos to you and Elissa!

SharkTums Posted November 23, 2007 Share Posted November 23, 2007 We definitely got lucky with KT. She LOVES being outside, loves watching roller coasters going by, and isn't scared of the noises at all. Â On the negative side though, she got so used to being outdoors constantly this summer on all of the trips that now she won't stay inside at all! We have to take her out at least 3 times a day or she gets more and more miserable! Â Good for trips, bad for the rest of the year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIPDUDE Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 ^ I'd start saving up for her trips rigt now if I were you. Sounds to me like she's going to be taking alot. Eh.

Airtime&Gravity Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Great photos so far, and LaQua looks like a really cool place since it's in the middle of Tokyo and the rides are all over the place. I'm surprised with Thunder Dolphin, well was as I found out it wasn't great from your 04 trip, but it does have a really cool location. I don't know much about Sea Paradise, but I assume it is like Sea World California so it seems to be a nice park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 351 feet tall. Â Â I really REALLY didn't realize how OMG high that thing was. Â Until you posted that. Â My, my. Wow. Â I guess I've done pretty good with my fear of heights. Â And I rode that thing twice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Although I really enjoy the Drop Tower experience I always think the restraint will not lock and so I'm very happy for the small seatbelt attaching the restraint to the seat. Â Blue Fall did not have this safety feature. Â I was very happy to make it back to Earth.

Chrissie Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Great Update guys. I really can't wait to go to Japan now. Everything just looks so amazing. Â Loving the pic of Kidtums giving Ryan the hand treatment. Whatevveeer!! Hehe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to take her out at least 3 times a day or she gets more and more miserable!  Good for trips, bad for the rest of the year!  My daughter is similar. She is now 17 and 1/2 months old. She loves the sounds and sights of coaster trains going by, and she also hates being trapped inside. Living in New York City, it is now Winter, so we have quite a bit of inside time. =( Travel is difficult when it is really cold.  Hopefully the next time you guys are on the East Coast, we can join you on your GrAdv outing.  I wish GrAdv would get a Blue Sex Fall! They need a drop tower so badly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunfire Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 And what is the fake drop on Blue Fall? Â The fake drop is shown in Robb's Seaparadise video. It is when the ride releases you to drop, but some brakes at the top catch you, hold you for a second or so, then you drop the rest of the way down. If I'm not right, please correct me.

RIP Psyclone Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 351 feet tall. Â Haha WOW! I really want to get out there and ride that thing. That's insane! Â And it's not even the tallest! Imagine a drop tower built on the side of Superman: The Escape at Six Flags Magic Mountain. Well, that's pretty much what they got in Australia. Â Â I believe the drop is around 390 feet. It also holds you at the top for about 45 seconds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted November 26, 2007 Author Share Posted November 26, 2007 We ended our day at "Cosmoworld" a little park build right in the middle of Yokohama city. Personally, I think that Comoworld might actually be the most awesome setting for a park anywhere in the world! It rivals Ocean Park in that category! Â The park was a little different from the last time we were there in 2004. There is a little park on the other side of the water that last time just had a couple of kiddie rides and flats. It appears that since then, Cosmoworld has purchased this little park and made it park of the Cosmoworld complex. They've expanded it with a few more flats, a new kiddie credit, some shops and a bigger arcade. Â It was really cool that they've expanded and it gave you a reason to go check out the other side! Â Anyway, onto some photos.... It was time to head out. Say our final goodbye to one of the most awesome looking parks ever! Â Special thanks to Ryan, Falefel, Bob, Mark, Tom, Jeff, Dan, Chuck, and Lou for submitting photos! We love our TPR credit whores! Elissa got to reach into the mystery box of death! Please let it be razor blades!!! We played more games in the arcade. They had one of those places that makes your nipples hard. Yes, it's called the "Family Banana Coaster." Have fun guys! Time for a little bit of credit whoring! We wandered over to the other side...see, it's part of Cosmoworld now! Wow, and I thought Hot Fuzz Rich looked all bad ass with a gun! "Armadillo Racing Game"... you know... because Armadillo racing is freaking COOL! And speaking of perverted I'm not even sure I want to know what's going on here! Ok, fine...maybe there is something a little perverted about it! You're a large train thrust into a large hole that gets wet. Hmm.... Is it just me or is there something strangely perverted about it? This is why it's called "Diving Coaster!" Diving Coaster:Vanish is all lit up at night! "Where's Chip?!?!" Hot Fuzz Rich sure knows how to handle his piece! (Lou is VERY impressed!) We spent WAAAAY too much time in their awesome arcade! "Hi Dan...how's it going?" "Have fun on the log flume with AIRTIME!!!" I don't know for sure how big this Ferris wheel is, but it's got to be one of the bigger ones in Japan. There he is adjusting the lights or something! How would you like to have this guys job? The gets darker and the city looks awesomer. "Hey Jahan...mind if I stroke your giant peanut?" Bob looks impressed "God Damn Jahan...that really IS a giant peanut!!!" We won a present for Jahan! (And no, it's not a giant potato..it's a giant PEANUT!!!!) Yes..you are seeing that correctly. It's the "get as many balls as you can into the Cup-O-Noodles when it opens it's lid" game. OMG!!1 EXCLUSIVE BEHIND THE SCENES PHOTOS OF THE MY MELODY PHOTO SHOOT!!!! My Melody complete with "little hat" is happy to be here. Anyway, we'll get back to sexy photos later...more important stuff has to happen first! Like...we ARRIVE!!! Yay! That's just sexy. The Yokohama Landmark Tower is the tallest building in Japan and it's right next to Cosmoworld! Upon entering the area you can see Cosmoworld is dwarfed by all the huge buildings around it.
