Dragon Keeps Coaster Nuts Warm In Winter

Fiery inversions, lofty freefalls, spicy potato wedges, hafema rapids, coin operated water cannons, bumper cars with light up eyes, singed eyebrows from exposure to special effects and public pleasuring on the promenade all served with excessive amounts of salt and sugar

Spain may not be your first choice of destination when thinking of escaping the cold temperament of the british winter, more than likely because it isn't that much warmer, but they have an open large scale theme park, plentiful of low cost airlines to get you there and the coca cola corporation kindly provided hats to keep our ears warm and enhance the festivities of this time of year

Jai & myself spent 3 days at PortAventura from the 6th december 2005 onwards, due to public holidays on the 6th and the 8th the park was fairly busy, however in contrast the 7th found the park blessed with no crowds whatsoever, the park was currently having a winter event and there were special decorations, shows and events throughout our visit which makes the park even more spectacular than normal
