Multitude of small parks in Florida



29 new possible credits on top of the 15 already gained.. featuring 4 brand new coasters (D-Back, Manta, HRRR, and T:S).. this looks to be a delicious season.
 
Okay soo, basically I think this year I know for sure I'll be doing Cedar Point a few times, as well as Wonderland many times (considering I will be able to drive to Wonderland by mself via a road that's not a scary highway).

Kings Island I'd say is at about 70% right now, and then you got the smaller indoor parks I might do once or twice as well as fairs.
 
First post...woohoo!!

Already done Thorpe twice this year
(Saw, Collosus, Stealth, Nemesis etc)

Got DLP booked for June, and Florida planned for Sept. (WDW, Busch, IOA, USO, SW etc etc) Would love to do a whole year of touring and riding all the parks...maybe one day ;-)
 
I previously said:
Next year will definitely be my biggest year for coasters so far, as I have a considerably low coaster count. Parks definite:

Alton Towers
Walt Disney World
-Magic Kingdom
-Epcot
-MGM Studios
-Animal Kingdom
Universal Studios
Islands of Adventure
Seaworld Orlando
Busch Gardens Africa

Maybe:

Thorpe Park
Chessington World of Adventures
Flamingoland
Drayton Manor

Update!

All my definite parks have been done and I have attained 17 new credits so far this year. The maybe list is changing as now it is nearer the time I can see what really can be done. So, after doing all my definities, there are now a couple more confirmed:

Thorpe Park
Blackpool Pleasure Beach

Would like to do the others I put as maybe but I don't know if they are possible at the moment and might have to be left until next year. 13 more new credits available for me at the moment though with them two parks planned! This season is going fantastic so far and is my first proper season of riding rollercoasters where I've properly planned trips. :--D
 
My plans so far for this year are:

May:

Liseberg this Friday.

Then for the big trip this year,:
22:nd - BonBon-land
23:rd - Waarbeek, Walibi World
24:th - Drievliet, Duinrell
25:th - Bobbejaanland, Toverland
26:th - Mondo Verde, Klotten
27:th - Europapark
28:th - Holiday Park, Tripsdrill
29:th - Plohn, Belantis
30:th - Hansa Park
31:st - Tivoli Gardens, Bakken

June:

May do a quick trip up to Skara soon after the may trip, if Tranan is open.

Togeather with TPR:
14:th - Tusenfryd
15:th - Liseberg
16:th - Skara Sommarland
17:th - Gröna Lund
then a few days later do Kolmården

29:th - CF trip to Liseberg (most likely)

I have no idea about any trips later this summer, but there is a few small parks close by that we could day trip to for some credit whoring :)

And of course a few more trips to Liseberg.

If all the coasters are opened then I'm looking towards 40+ new coasters, which is a lot better then last year.
 
Well after going to London for the 2nd time in 2 weeks last weekend I still haven't managed to get to Thorpe. But Alton is booked for next month so now confirmed:

1. Alton Towers - June
2. Six Flags Great America - August

Still haven't been to any park this season
 
Because my car is stupid and I have no money I can no longer do Liseberg and Tusenfryd =[

Hopefully I'll get some money saved up for the summer and head to Europa Park or maybe try and do the Madrid parks as planned.
 
My post a few up this page is still the same for me with Thorpe and Blackpool but also the addition of Adventure Island and Milky Way in August if all goes well. This means there is 20 possible new coasters for me this year, aswell as the 17 in April when I went to Florida. As I targeted a coastercount of 80 for the end of this year, which I never thought I would get, I am now on course to end the year with a cc of 81, which is great. My first proper season of riding coaster is going brilliantly so far, with also 7 Alton Towers visits so far this year.
 
OK, update...

This weekend - Cornwall/Devon. Flambards, Milky Way and some Kiddies.

Then, West Coast -

Wednesday August 5 - Santa Monica Pier

PS. Sorry to put lots of pictures in this post. I just think the place looks amazing. :)
 
I know for sure I'm going to Busch Gardens Europe at the start of August as part of family holiday. Possibly might go to Coney Island for a bit when we're in New York.

As I no longer have an Anal Pass... I reckon I'll probably do Thorpe twice with Bouncebacks and a trip to Alton in September is a possibilty.

And I'm not going to GF. =[

EDIT- As we're getting our new puppy from Southend, I'll see if I can get myself a ride on Rage. (Good luck to me is all I can say.)
 
Me and my friend, Jake, are going to Thorpe Park on 21st July and we're going to record a review of Thorpe Park for our 'Summer Special' on our Radio Show (JASsy Radio).
We're on facebook if you want to ask questions or listen to our show, just join our group and post a question on our wall. Just search 'JASsy Radio' in the magic Facebook search box :wink:

How full of win is that???

Ben, have you done Milky Way before? Remember to watch the Ferret Racing :) Dodgems are also pretty good and the indoor play barn thing is superb - don't miss it!
 
Some sort of credit whoring on Wednesday, then Euro Live. Still trying to sort out Skegness for some time this summer as there's a fair few coasters I'd like to do up there.

Also, FL/LWV live probably, the Ghosterforce. Will probably go Thorpe and Alton before then also.

I'd love love lovvvve to do Europa Park/Phantasialand at some point this year, possibly over Halloween. You have no idea how much I want to do these parks!
