Never fear though, apparently the Python coaster is staying!  The new Director of the park, Fons Jurgens, has announced the new coaster, which will be a dive coaster similar to Oblivion at Alton Towers, with a 37 foot fall to the ground.  We’re quite interested as to what the story will be surrounding the ride, and where exactly it will be built.  The coaster will open in 2015, and it’s costing €36 million…not too much then…

 

In other news, Bosrijk is having new rooms added!  Right now there are 1150 beds, but soon there will be 1550!  Great news for Bosrijk lovers.Bosrijk

This news will surely help Efteling to its target of having 5 million visitors through their gates by 2020.

Bosrijk is Lacking Suitcase Space!

There are a LOT of rooms at Bosrijk, so naturally, there is a lot of luggage passing through.  Sometimes, if you get there early and your room isn’t ready, you will need to leave your suitcases in the space provided while you go out and enjoy the park.  Now, with all those rooms, you would imagine that Bosrijk would have left a lot of space for baggage…but they haven’t.  About a metre and a half wide by about 2 and a half metres is the space in which you are expected to cram your suitcases, strollers, golf clubs etc.  Get some Vaseline on your suitcase and get ready to push!  We managed to take a low quality photo of the ordeal; note the cases that have been left all over the floor outside of the baggage area.

Thought for the Day…

I was wondering whilst staying Bosrijk, why there wasn’t a small shop where you could buy food and drink to take back to your room.  As mentioned on the accommodation page, you can order a package of pre-selected food and drink to be delivered to your room ready for you on arrival.  The obvious problem with this is that you do not get to choose exactly what you want, and you will most likely end up having to throw the excess away.  Since it is a holiday village rather than a hotel, I found it very strange that there wasn’t a shop which sold packaged food and drink, as well as anything else you may have forgotten to take with you.

Obviously there is no shortage of food, but you are required to go and buy it as required, rather than stocking up your room.

Anyway, just a thought for the day!
