It was the end of July, time for another trip

Norwegian was really cool to fly with, comfy seats, free wifi and cheap. Gatwick to Landvetter, easy.

After a very easy bus journey and dropping our stuff in the hostel, we were on park queueing for Balder

This is possibly the smoothest Intamin I've been on. Made some pretty cool noises over the airtime hills too and the tunnels were fun especially at night

Eh

Liseberg banana train! This was really fun, especially in the rain where it gained some serious speed

A horrid device. Unless you ride it like a chairswing like I do :)

The next day was really wet.

So we went kid cred hunting

And did their haunted house maze thing. Upcharge but cheaper if you have an unlimited wristband. Not very scary but very well themed

The rapids were pretty fun. If a bit spinny

This was torture. The queue was long and the ride cycle even longer

And all the views were ruined by rain

And then the sun came out.

The park is littered with game stalls. But some are quite well done like this Balder ski ball one

Loke

Was actually a load of mini ones, but still very nice

And then it was time to get our bus back to the airport

And that's Gothenburg.

 

The city is stunning and well worth a visit especially if you're already out there. Liseberg, decent place but lacks a dark ride especially now the only they have is gone. But if you like flat rides and a few coasters you'll be fine!

I certainly enjoy visiting Liseberg, but it does definitely need a major dark ride, which I strongly hope they receive in the next few years. Did you manage to ride the Fairy Tale one during your visit?

 

City centre looks nice too, need to take a look there next time.
