I've tried them on a few occasions but unfortunately me and them don't combine. Very sensitive eyelids mean that they react overwhelmingly towards anything coming even close to my eye, making them impossible to insert, plus I prefer having glasses anyway on top of contacts being high...

I've recently started wearing a very secure glasses strap on coasters as of this year as I'd gotten pretty sick of having to take them off on every ride, and I would really rather be able to see properly when on an attraction. So I'd like to compile a list of rides that don't allow glasses even...

yes! Also adding on PowerPark and Estonia's Kadrioru Karrussell, been good so far 😀 Taiga unfortunately fell short of expectations but I return on Friday where it hopefully gains redemption!

Keeping this separate from my 100 milestones, but Hype at Särkänniemi was my 450th credit today.

I like the idea of bringing back old rides with new twists. Toxicator being an upgraded version of Ripsaw, Nemesis Reborn being an upgraded version of Nemesis (at least in terms of theming), Curse being an upgraded version of the Haunted House (I think). Just bringing back old stuff...

Not much to say with the final day, as it simply involved a multitude of laps on rides that we're already very familiar with now. Opinions of Tarantula and Abismo went up, opinions of Tornado went down, opinions of Top Spin skyrocketed as we got in four consecutive laps of it. Alongside those...

Three weeks later, I returned to Madrid to meet a group of 20+ other people to do the parks with. The group being a little more cred-hungry, we were confidently picking up the rides that I missed last time. An hour-long ERT session was booked for Gotham City Escape which we had to activate at...

The shuttle bus from Pinto train station to Parque Warner ran too infrequently and took forever, so we Ubered from that location to the park, where we quickly laid eyes on the park's shiny new black coaster, #374 Batman Gotham City Escape, which we headed straight for (of course). A lengthy...

In the course of a month I went to both Madrid parks twice - once at the start of November versus one at the end, due to conflicting availabilities with friends. So instead of going once, I went twice. The first one, we decided to get everywhere by public transport, which was obviously longer...

The desire to see a new country saw me not flying out of Vienna, but rather Bratislava in Slovakia, and being a direct train from Vienna away it was easy as lemons to get to; I had later discovered that you could get an alternate route by taking a boat as both capitals are on the same river, I...

Slammer at Thorpe Park and Evolution at Blackpool Pleasure Beach - too scared, never gained the courage. Very sad I missed them. Original Tonnerre de Zeus at Parc Asterix - didn't care for it, wanted to lap OzIris. At the time I was more upset about missing Vol d'Icare! Web Slingers at Walt...

A lengthy train to Vienna had me arriving at Prater for day two of coastering, and I came well prepared with the huge amount of cash required in order to spend a day here. Immediately starting by knocking out #357 Dizzy Mouse, I proceeded to get lost in the maze of a queue for #358 Insider which...

Do we have our answer? Dream Island was kind of half expected ... but a family coaster, that's what I was not expecting at all.

The knowledge of Wild Train's death caused me to impulsively book a Halloween weekend out to Austria, country #14. I don't often gain country credits on solo excursions, in fact it only happened once before with my day in Tusenfryd where I stepped foot into Norway with nobody but myself. A...
