Speaking of Heide Park:

Ive organized two 2 for 1 coupons for it.
So If you someone of you didnt bought a ticket, that could be a chance to get it cheaper :)

All sounds great! Too bad Tripsdrill the tour from Tripsdrill isn't working out. Due that I might just drop the park in general and meet you guys at Holiday Park. Would save me about 1,5 hour extra driving time and petrol. (I've seen tours happening at Tripsdrill on smaller groups though? Are you sure it was due the low amount of attendees and not because of the high number? :lol: )

Also, It's hard to find this info back in the chat but whereabouts are people staying between Heide Park and Hansa Park? Might be fun to be in the same hotel with the majority of the group. Personally I hope somewhere near Hansa Park. Saves the drive in the morning. :)

Alberto and I are at this place for the nights of the 11th and 12th. But it's a lot closer to Heide than Hansa.

@JAMMY:
Awesome thing with the ERT on K??rnan! :D

But: are you sure that the 20??? admission to for Hansapark excludes taxes?
Usually, the taxes ("Mehrwertsteuer" or abreviation "MwSt" which are 19%) are allready included in offers of any kind here.

Also:
How about opening a WhattsApp Group for the Trip?

@Dirk:

I??m going to bring my own tent and just camp somewhere near there; most budget-friendly option for me. :D

I've got an Efteling season pass and Postwagen (Martijn) who's riding with me has a Slagharen season Pass. With the Efteling pass it's 50% off on a ticket and with an Slagharen pass the entry is free (although you probably have to show your season pass at a counter). So for us it would save a lot of money to enter the park 15 minutes later. Is it okay with you guys if we enter the park at the normal time and meet each other a bit later at the park?

@Der LK 7531: My mistake, yes, including taxes sorry! I'll update now! :)

Also yes, if people message me their name and phone number I will add them to a WhatsApp group for the trip! :)

@herman116: That's absolutely fine if you'd rather enter later! :) The group will certainly meet up later in the day!

I might as well drop some info that hasn't been posted yet, but was mentioned a little in the groupchat.
Toverland midsummer eve
On Wednesday the 9th Toverland is open until 11pm. As people are visiting Phantasialand 2 days. I've heard plans of some willing people leaving early at Phantasialand and visiting Toverland. I'm not sure who exactly all is coming and going. But I'll be there too as it's close by my workplace.

Cranger Kirmes @ Herne
During the visit over here, there is a fairground going on in Herne. It's (as I recall) the 2nd largest fairground in Germany (in number of stalls) and it has it's big star. The Olympia Looping over there, as well as the spinning racer and plenty of other awesome rides. If anyone needs directions:
https://www.google.nl/maps/search/kirme ... 782,16.25z
When driving on the 42, take the exit of Herne-Crange, Exit no. 20. Then just follow the parking signs and follow the crowds to the fair. (Or take the shuttle for a small fee) This would be the easiest way on getting to the fairground as there are a ton of roads around the fairground blocked off for common traffic.

I've heard there are plans on visiting Friday after Moviepark Germany. As that's the park the closest by the fairground. According to the website the fairground will be open until 2am that day. So plenty of time to ride many awesome things. I don't know when you guys will arrive. But since I'll be there the next day in Heide Park. I'm coming to the fairground too. :) (I'll just sleep a few hours in the car :lol: )

As I unfortunately suspected, school has snuck up on me, and I won't be able to attend any portion of the trip. I'm seriously sorry and also really sad/PO'd, but I'm grateful that I at least made it out to Phantasialand this year. I hope you all enjoy your time at the trip and make sure to keep us updated. Thanks so much guys, I do apologize, deeply. Have fun!
Ok but how desperate you have to be to voluntarily fly from another country to go to Thorpe?
