Alexander: When work sends you to Nederlands on 3hrs notice, what do you do? You go to a theme park, of course!
Avonturenpark Hellendoorn is a park that Sean and I wanted to hit on our Europe trip, but there just wasn’t enough time! Lucky for me, the opportunity to visit came less than a month later! Continue reading “Avonturenpark Hellendoorn”

Even though its still far away, the preparations are well on its way. But something new is coming… Continue reading “Horrorland: The New and Exciting Scream Park in Spain”
Alexander: After a trip of wins, we finally took a loss on the final parks of our Europe tour, Disneyland Park Paris and Walt Disney Studios.
While Efteling, Walibi, De Warbeek, Slagharen, Movie Park, and Phantasialand (swoon) all shattered expectations, Disneyland Paris Resort showed us why it’s the weakest link in Disney’s 6-link chain. Continue reading “Disneyland Paris Resort”
Sean: This is a good year for the Californian Cedar Fair parks! Both Knott’s Berry Farm and California’s Great America are opening world-class coasters this year. HangTime is a Gerstlauer Infinity Coaster and opened at Knott’s Berry Farm this week as California’s first Dive Coaster! This is the park’s biggest coaster addition in the 14 years, and of course that was reason for a party! Continue reading “HangTime, California’s First Dive Coaster, Opens at Knott’s Berry Farm”
Sean: Six Flags Magic Mountain was so kind to invite us to their next CraZanity construction tour, we were unable to make it, but our great friend Edward at Ride! was able to attend and create a report for us! Enjoy! Edward: Hello, we’re back at the mountain for an all-new construction tour of CraZanity and The Boardwalk! Much has changed since the last tour we had a couple months back. The park is still on schedule with opening the new area and should be ready this summer. Continue reading “CraZanity and Boardwalk Backstage Tour at Six Flags Magic Mountain – May 2018”
Sean: In this installment of our journey to some of Europe’s unique theme parks, we visit another old home park of mine, one of which I spent quite a bit of my childhood at! Movie Park Germany! Another ex-Six Flags park that had a serious identity crisis for a bit, but is now doing much better! Let’s take a look! Continue reading “Operation: Movie Park Germany”
Alexander: It’s been several weeks since we last touched base with The Happiest Place on Earth, so why don’t we have a look-see? Continue reading “Pixar Pier at Disneyland Resort”

McLaren: Today I headed to the beloved Six Flags of the Bay Area (my current home park) on a moderately cool Saturday, with a nice set of varietal weather. Lets jump right to it! Continue reading “Discovery Kingdom Trip and Harley Quinn Construction Update”
Alexander: Hello again, peeps!
The shortest update of our Europe visit is Attractiepark Slagharen. We only spent an hour and a half at this little park (the rest of the day was spent at Movie Park Germany), but what a gem this place is! Continue reading “Slagharen”
Alexander: Hey peeps!
It’s been a minute since we’ve paid a visit to one of our favorite indoor theme parks, Nickelodeon Universe. There’s been some big changes, so we thought we’d clue everyone in on what’s new!
Continue reading “Nickelodeon Universe Update: Jimmy Neutron GONE!”
Sean: While we release our Europe reports, we would also like to sprinkle in some Californian updates of course! One of this week’s updates takes us to Six Flags Magic Mountain where Boardwalk construction is in full swing and Hurricane Harbor sees more improvements. That and more exciting news in this update. Continue reading “Six Flags Magic Mountain Update – April 24th”
Sean: One of Europe’s best known theme-parks is the Efteling, which opened as a nature driven park in 1935 and then was launched as a fairy-tale forest in 1952. Now, 66 years later it is one of the most infamous attractions in The Netherlands with some of the world’s best rides! Let’s see what makes Efteling so incredibly unique… Continue reading “Distinctly Dutch, Authentically Efteling”
Alexander: What’s shakin, peeps? Who’s ready for the drug trip of a lifetime??
Today we’re at Walibi Holland to score some serotonin; there’s no better place than this, the greater Amsterdam area’s primary regional park, to scrounge up goods of this nature. Walibi is ready for us, but are you? Continue reading “Lowkey Wannabe @ Walibi”
Alexander: Ok guys, who here has heard of De Waarbeek?
*crickets*
No worries, peeps! De Waarbeek isn’t one I’ve heard of much of either, but boy were we in for a treat when we decided to fit this little park into our itinerary.
Continue reading “De Waarbeek: Home of the World’s Oldest Steel Coaster”
Sean: We have traveled to quite a few parks around the world and we got the conclusion that we like Phantasialand the best. Not only is this park a thematic wonder world, it is a heaven for coaster enthusiasts too. The park is home to (arguably) the best Inverted Coaster, Multi-Launch Coaster, Spinning Coaster and Mine Train, while offering some of the best themed-settings this world has ever seen.
