I've been to a very few considering what an enthusiast I am. The thing with me is that I pick out the parks I like and I buy season passes for them and visit several times a year. Too bad I can't do that more with SDC this year.
Anyway, I've been to:
- SDC
- CC
- Bell's
- Frontier City
- Cedar Point
- Alton Towers
- Flamingoland

WOW, Eagle Rider. You've got an impressive array of theme park experience.
Oh, yeah, I've been to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk (though I've never had a chance to ride any of the rides).... Took an evening and came down from our chuch campground in Happy Valley and spent several hours walking around enjoying the sights and hanging out on the beach. Visiting Santa Cruz/Happy Valley is definitely one of the very few things I miss about living in California.
And goodness gracious, I forgot about Busch Gardens! I've been to BG Tampa, too. I'd like to go back, as I was a kid when I went, so didn't get to ride all the thrill rides.

Wow Tom, you must be one of the only other enthusiasts I know who's been to Bell's. How did you like it? Everyone seems to have a different story.
-
I would call the Zingo one of my top 10 favorites. I know I'm a little anti-climatic, but I prefer old wood that is under 50 MPH and definately under 100 ft tall. I really like the little things. . . like that tunnel that no one sees coming.
I like Bells for several reasons, but none of them have to do with the park, so I kind of feel like my opinion doesn't count. I can boast that I have raced a 350 lbs man down the racing water slides and lost. . . but really enjoyed watching him go thirty feet beyond me.
-
I have been to KiddieLand, SFGAm, WDW, DLR, SFStL, CP, SFA, SFGAd, SFNE, SFOT, SFFT, SDC, Mt O, and Timberfalls. New to the forums here. I had no idea these existed. 8)

Planned(first visits/new to me)
2016: SF Great America, Adventureland
2017: Busch Gardens Williamsburg, Six Flags America, Six Flags Great Adventure, Coney Island
2018 Europe:
positives: Europa Park, Phantasialand, Efteling, Plopsa de Panne, London Eye/Sealife/Tussards/Dungeon
Maybe: Disney Paris, Park Astrix, Toverland, Holiday Park, Mirabilandia and/or Gardaland, Alton Towers/Drayton
That trip has to more than 50% cultural/historical or the wife will revolt.
2019: Spain: Port Adventura/Ferrari World. This is easy as a Co worker is offering a free stay at his house in Murcia. He spends two months a year there and the rest of the year his parents lease it it out for him.
2020: all that's new in Orlando hopefully.
After that the kids are graduated and off to college.

"That trip has to more than 50% cultural/historical or the wife will revolt."
I'm going to Europe again next year but I cannot even think about going to a amusement park with all the great historical and natural sites to see. I'm with your wife on this one.

There's a balancing act to be had but the kids and I will hit some parks to cut lose a bit. Plopsa De Panne is right there where we'll be showing them Flander's Fields and focusing on WWI. Efteling and Phantasialand are simply incredibly well themed and happen to have some neat lodging.
Efteling has some nice cottages that we can base a couple of days out of

We plan for the early part of June as most of Europe doesn't end their school and thus Holidays till late June.
We are planning on either 14 days or 21 days. That's with or without Italy.

I'd love to go to Europe someday! :)

I need to add Tulsa's Incredible Pizza as we spent to while day there today. The little spinning coaster is fun. And... then Tulsa decided to remind me of home as we walked out to this:
KJRH
2 arrested after road rage incident leads to shots fired at Incredible Pizza in south Tulsa
5:39 PM, Oct 11, 2015
13 mins ago
TULSA - Police arrested a man and a woman after an alleged road rage incident led to shots fired in front of a family-friendly restaurant in south Tulsa.
Officers responded to Incredible Pizza near 71st and Memorial just after 5 p.m. Sunday.
They say they received multiple calls about an apparent road rage incident on Highway 169 southbound.
Police say the occupants of a maroon Nissan felt that another car tried to run them off the road. They say the people in that other car were following a family member and her daughter to her kid’s birthday party.
Officers say the Nissan followed the two cars to the parking lot of Incredible Pizza and got out of the car. They say one of the victims saw one of the passengers in the Nissan had a gun and they began to fight over it.
Police say the gun went off three times during the struggle. No one was hurt.
They say the victims were able to wrestle the gun away from the suspect and security at Incredible Pizza took him into custody.
Officers arrested the man with the gun and the woman who was driving the Nissan. They say they had a child in the car with them and a family member came to the scene to pick him up.
Police have not released the names of those arrested.

So, while researching this trip of mine that tentatively planned for 2018 i've discovered Poy du Fou, which has been decided upon as a must do, and there's nearby Futuroscope. Anyway, I was reading up on Venice and found an article where the cash strapped Italian gov't is selling a 99 year lease for a Venetian Island that's been sort of abandoned, has an old hospital and stuff and how the the locals don't want it developed but be a park for actual residents and I saw where another one was getting some resistance but was progressing along. This island is basically the old dump and Mr. Zamperla has stepped in and said he'd clean what is the equivalent of a Super Fund site and build a Venetian themepark. Now, I'm all about theme parks but do we.need one on a Venetian Island?
