Big One - Blackpool Pleasure Beach
Don’t get me wrong, I love a lengthy journey coaster.
On a warm day it offers great views but when is it ever warm in Blackpool 🤣
It is a little janky though, a few transitions are a little rough.

Curse at Alton Manor - Alton towers
It is objectively probably the best the UK has (despite me placing 2 higher)
I do prefer duel but I understand the re theme and respect the effort they’ve put in.
The nighttime atmosphere is incredible!

What a gem!
Screw RTH and Anubis, catch me on here all day.
Plenty to look at, long ride and a little drop.

Tomb blaster - Chessington
Always enjoyed the atmosphere of this one, especially the old soundtrack.
One of the first immersive rides I ever did.
Possibly the reason why I enjoy dark rides more than coasters.

Ghostly Manor was great today!
Achieved 11 rides on it and now hold the all time record score of 164,900!
Really solid addition, genuinely think in 2 years time once the Viking area is fully complete, Paultons will be a serious top 10 in Europe contender!!

Took a first visit to Clarence Pier (without the pier)
Quite a nice quaint seaside area.
An overdose of arcades and 2 really solid Mini Golf spots.
Fish and chips were 🤌
Will return for the creds some point this year (only live 40 mins away)

Kosmikar - Parque de Atracciones Monte Igueldo

Think of Journey to the centre of the earth but on a potato budget. The POV here by Coaster Legacy actually doesn’t look that bad.

We return to Dunia Fantasi again for a surprisingly well themed IP experience. Both outside and in, a lot of detail has gone into this ride and portrays the classic films very well.

Both pathways lead through 3 sections, a stand-up simulator, a training facility with projection mapping and finally an Interactive Theater.

Eatrenalin - Europa park

Might as well start with the most expensive dark ride experience.
From €195+, you get a private moving seat exploring several themed spaces accompanied by exemplary fine dining cuisines.
A truly unique one-of-a-kind attraction.

I don’t mind stand-up coasters. This was just too plain and simple. Fairly long dispatch times for my visit but on the plus side the station building is cool.
An average coaster but glorified due to it being the lead attraction.
