Happy to see the Vanilla Sky is still on the #EuropaPark menu this year, at El Circo bar in the El Andaluz hotel. 💙 #Mocktail

Long fizzy mocktail garnished with basil and a pink peppercorn on a Europa Park napkin, resting on the “Alkoholfreie Drinks” menu on the bar top.

Three more days, to end a wonderful year as a gold pass holder. 10 days in total (plus one at EP). Big recommend, it’s such an excellent park. #Liseberg 💚🩷🐰

Getting some MacBook ads with a selling point they don't usually highlight: "free macOS updates" Anyone would think there's a fast approaching end-of-life date for Windows 10 (famously "The last version of Windows" *) and upgrades to 11 start at £120 RRP. * www.bbc.co.uk/news/technol...

MacBook Ad. "A studdy buddy you can rely on. Mac is built to stand the test of time. With a durable aluminium enclosure and free macOS updates".

Speaking of @cursedsupports.bsky.social spin-offs, anyone else a fan of #ThemedFooters? 😍🎢

Cobra, PowerPark. Footers look like rock work.

Valkyria, Liseberg. Footers look like a bundle of wooden logs.

Storm Chaser, Paultons Park. Footers look like wooden boxes and gas station shelving.

Taron, Phantasialand. Footer has carved woodwork effect.

🏗️🚂 Construction on the Gothenburg West Link Project around Liseberg, as seen from the ferris wheel and Underland. #Göteborg #Västlänken #Liseberg bransch.trafikverket.se/en/startpage...

Looking towards Korsvägen. A road and tram bridge extends over a vast cavern where railway platforms are being laid.

Looking opposite, between the main stage and Rondo, a cavern is opened for tracks to be laid.

A tunnel with tracks on the Underlandet dark ride. (This is the joke, it’s not really part of the West Link Project).

@destiny2team.bungie.net hello, just adding my voice to the feedback that another week of Spire was not a pleasant surprise 👎 If you can’t additively unlock them (ie 2 this week, all 3 next week onwards), then rotating them would give better variety. E.g spire, ghosts, prophecy, spire, ghosts, etc

@alicia.social did we ever get confirmation of which composers produced which music for Epic Universe? I remember a @orlandoparkstop.com Podcast episode mentioning that IMAscore had retweeted a lot of the original reveal videos. Do you know if any official credit has been given/taken yet? Thanks! 🎶

📸 @th13teen.bsky.social & Street View I’ve just spent a good 20 minutes poring over RCDB to try and work out what coaster this silhouette is from. I think it might be Inferno? • low level perspective, difficult in Nemmy’s valley • vertical-ish support behind or in front of the loop • 7 row train?

We're extremely sad to see Oakwood close. This has felt almost inevitable in recent years but they've invested heavily on Megafobia so was hoping it would be okay. Wishing the best for the amazing staff who we've had the pleasure of interacting with over the years.
