Well THAT was an anti-climax... http://www.gardalandraptor.it/fumetto/scarica-pdf.php -

It's not based off a god, it's based off a character in the Asterix books! [/pedantic] Also, needs more park review Got me all excited now too... YAY B&M!

Nice quality POV... I think the simulated splashdown suits the Mega coasters better, it looked a bit silly when half the train had already left the pool when Diamondback's splash started...
The German train system is fab, with multi-language ticket machines which can also print off your change-overs with platforms and times... German public transport
Surely Expedia will help book a hotel off site to the park? Just search for Rust/Europa Park... Still think the best bet is flying to Basel and getting the relatively expensive shuttle... Better than having to suffer Stanstead, Ryanair and stupid flight times...
Marvel have really pushed these post credits sequences since Iron Man... In fact the Avengers gets a SECOND one in America (but isn't as interesting as the one we get anyway, it is just a continuation of a previous joke)... Even so, Joss Whedon
Or don't do that as it is against the park rules and regulations... If you're that desperate not to pay the parking charges, buy a Premium AP... We have been lucky enough in the UK not to be charged it for so long in comparison to the other countries really...
To be fair to Gardaland, they did the whole "egg discovery research leading to giant alien attack" story first, so Towers kinda stole that off them really and just tied it into Nemesis' pre-existing back story... If the theming is anything like Raptor's/Sub Terra's, then it should be good enough, and might well be received better by an Italian market (and also vandalised better as well)...
Verbolten will have 3 different sequences (I.e. lighting, theming) during the indoor section, either a lightening strike, Thirteen Ripoff Spirit of the Forest or Wolf attack (apparently to homage BBW)... Nice, very good thinking there... http://themeparks.about.com/od/rollercoasternews/a/Verbolten-Busch-Gardens-Williamsburg.htm
Of course, nothing is stopping Candy Holland and co using ideas from Sub Terra for other parks in the company for new attractions...
So possible new attraction for next year teased... Oh, I wonder what it could be...
Maybe they weren't in their right mind? Lucky nothing worse happened... Very, very lucky...
And people say Sub Terra and Merlin's theming attempts are rubbish...
You are Nick Varney and I claim my £5!
POV of X Flight online, looking pretty damn snazzy... http://www.chicagotribune.com/videogallery/69761990/News/Soar-with-the-X-Flight-wing-coaster
Of course, should Towers be forced to remove rides or close, there will be a fair few businesses in the Alton area who will suddenly lose all of their custom... It's always ironic really these two, as their pottery factory creates just as much noise for the people living near it as Towers might well do to them... Though I'm sure I read once that they had actually moved away... Oh wells, see what the judge makes of it...
You have to pay to park your car? #premiumpasssupremacy
