Genuinely one of the best coasters in the world so definitely worth the effort

Another challenging day @altontowers.bsky.social dodging ride closures. Pleased with what we got done but my god I don’t I know another park with such downtime across so many rides. There are no signs of improvement yet.

Best Merlin park these days. Refreshed and a great choice of rides. Also no hills πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Just another normal year at Europa Park. 🀩🀩🀩🀩

It’s a disaster to only be spending 14 days there this year πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Speed and megafobia were excellent. My visit 5 years ago the park had the feel of closure, similar to lightwater valley and pleasure wood hills. I’m trying to support smaller parks this year rather than Merlin.

R.I.P. Oktoberfest Towers

The best event they had and so many amazing memories from the last 5 years.

I’m even happier with my decision to cancel my Merlin Annual Pass.

I’ve started driving to Europa. Get to stop off somewhere nice and no restrictions on luggage.

Exploring parks across Europe the past few years it’s the entertainment that’s added the wow factor to a park. Well that and strong cocktails πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. Britain is looking very poor these days so it will be more trips abroad.

Oktoberfest is our favourite time of year to visit towers. You can do no rides all day and have the best time. I fear we said goodbye to the barrel monks last year 😭😭

I’ve been very distracted recently. Hoping it livens up on here again once the season starts again.
