Wet n Wild Trip

Can't wait to blog this... its awesome...

on Monday 13 Nov 2006, We (Jakarta Crew) went to wet n wild, we planning its gonna be 9 people.... then.. only 5 people that coming (Me, pakde, Bude, Om and Tante) (*their nick name :D).

we bring many food and drinks such as Rice, KFC, Chips, Teh Sosro (from my boss), lemon tea, Frozen Water, Apple juice... yea you know... Indo style :D... don't even care about other people.... walk with confidence :D lol....

we departed from Central Station around 9.55am catch the Gold Coast/ Robina train it was 12 Zone ticket from Brisbane. Takes around 1 hour to get there... huhuhu exciting.. we met Gay couple in train.. they sit next to us... when its half way from halensvale station we saw they sleeping and hugging... ohh yaachkttsakjakdsdsfjksaahjads. And guest what.. they going to wet n wild too..... lol..

arrive in Halensvale station we catch the bus to wet n wild its only take 15 minutes. Then we buy ticket first... (I already purchase Discount Voucher from eBay) it save you $14/person.... nice... We going in to wet n wild and rent the locker its $7/day per locker.. We keep the Mobile, Keys, And Wallet in locker.. and we bring towel, foods, drinks and camera.

Ok we don't know where to go.. we take the close ride, they called it

"Giant Wave Pool" where 3 million litres of water and a consistent one-metre swell makes for a lot of fun. With gently rolling waves in the shallows and constant lifeguard supervision, guests of all ages can hit the surf in safety. There's also inflatable tubes for hire from the Beach Hut.

exciting.. yesss but I can't swimmm.... helppppppppppppppppppp lol.... when the wave coming I am slowly went back not the deep one (hiks I am alone) everyone swim with the wave in deep level...

after that we had our lunch, KFC with rice and Sosro (its been frozen when i brought it.. now its really fressh and cool in the hot weather) yummyyyyyyyy...

Next We going to "Mammoth Falls" The Mammoth River Ride features 4.5 metre wide troughs winding over more than 200 metres of white water rapids and ridden in giant six-person tubes.

5 of us Riding this big tube... huhuhuuh exciting... Pakde was so excited he alway push the tube when we pass the corner... bude was the loudest one... its fun we scream out of loud, laughing... huhuuhuhu want it againnn....

At the bottom we can see our picture was taken by automatic camera.. so you can print it ($10) later from their office... (PS: Don't forget the time when you take it. as they won't allow u to browse arround within thousands picture).

We left our stuff in Giant Wave area.. after having some chips.. we went to other rides. Mach 5, Black Hole, Tornado ( this 3 rides its new and they called it Extreme H20 Zone ) it is Extreme....

"Mach 5" attraction houses the Parks two longest slides that has guests sliding through 200 metres of twists and turns in open air flumes. And for the first time at Wet'n'Wild, one of these lengthy slides can be ridden in a three-man tube.

First time I saw it.. it really scary... not the one with tube, but the other one, you sliding from 200metres and takes less than 30 sec to get Down.. Feel like flying... feel so good and relief after we've done this... so cool....

Next is "Black Hole" as the name suggests, features two enclosed slides that catapult riders into pitch black spirals of darkness. You don't know which way you're turning next, and you don't see a thing until you hit the final splashdown!.

Its Really Dark..... its fun tough where you just follow the stream and at the end you will see the light of HOPE.. lol...

Then "Tornado" Riders begin their wild journey on the unique Tornado super-slide from a 15-metre high platform, then blast down a 40-metre long tunnel into the middle of a storm. Here they'll spin around the Tornado's funnel in a four person clover-leaf tube splashing back and forth through the menacing, swirling water.

unfortunately its only 4 person in 1 tube, so we split into 2 groups. Everyone always stuck in first tunnel, you have to swing around... and the adventures begin... first tunnel not to bad.. but when we came out from tunnel.... its really eXtreme.. so be prepared :D.

OK Finish with the eXtremes... we take our bags and move to buccaneer bay.... play ground area for kids.. but it have good view... so we take a rest in here and taking some pictures.

"Terror Canyon" Embarking on a tandem tube, plunge into the eerie unknown where you'll be swept by the torrent into a terrifying abyss of raging waters and sudden twists and turns.

Pass through sections of sheer darkness into eerie lighting effects before hurtling towards the final exhilarating splashdown into the rockpools below.

it sort of like Black Hole.. but the different is Teal not black, and the light better than Balck Hole.

Well its already 4.30pm and it will close at 5.. we can't spen into any rides again.. so we relax in "Calypso Beach" We can Lie back and relax on the soft tubes as the slow-flowing river takes you through lush sub-tropical gardens, a Caribbean shanty town and the remains of a pirate castle.

Or just find a spot in one of the shady beach retreats. It's the perfect place to unwind and go with flow.

We stay relax and playing Boom Boom Tube..(bude idea) lol... you hit around with your tubes... bude's glasses was missing after this...

Get ready to go home, taking shower and print out the picture... from Mammoth falls. We are the last one who come out from wet n wild.. with security escort... huhuhuhu Then we went back to brisbane... With Fun Memoriessss
