LOL!!!!!!! Go look for pictures of Superman Ultimate Escape / Vertical
Velocity. Or Millennium Force. Or... oh jeez, there are so many structurally
beautiful coasters out there!

I'm not sure! The park is located in... weird, the website aparently doesn't
quite say.
"Europa-Park is situated in the so called "Three-land-corner" Germany,
France and Switzerland. You can get there via Autobahn A5: Exit 57 Ettenheim
(if you're coming from the north) or exit 58 Herbolzheim (from south).
Please follow the signposts. The Strasbourg Airport is only 30 min. away.
Basel/Mulhouse about 45 min."
They're building a hypercoaster for next year! While you're in Germany, you
must try and check out... crap, it's not Heide Park. It's another
smaller-park. I'll find out what it is when I get home for you. Anyway, they
just put in an Intamin Hypercoaster (ala Millennium Force, Superman Ride of
Steel, etc...) called "Expedition GeForce" with a spiraling first drop. It
looks INSANE! You can look at pictures of it here:

(I'm sure it says on there what park it's at, but I'm already late for work.
:) )
