Aww I'm jealous, the ice cream looks amazing, please like and comment, my pet died today, would make my world, hope you had a blast
Sorry to hear that it’s awful when you have to say goodbye to someone you love so much.
@@Art3free-3 yes it is, I'm devastated
You will get a reply most likely as he responds very quickly. I've lost 3 hamsters in the past and every death traumatised me, I understand how hard it is. ❤
It was so good! Sorry to hear that!
@ThemeParkWorldwide You're a great guy Shawn!
My family and I were at California in April and we went to San Diego for 5 days staying at the Bahia not far from the park. An amazing holiday, love the west coast. Hope you’s are having a blast.
Awesome! Were having a great time thank you 😄
So this coaster , and at Santa Cruz were built by the same people there used to be a third one on the beach in San Francisco at a place called Playland that is long gone
Thanks for sharing!
When I was a kid in the 1970's I used to go to Belmont Park, just before it closed down. It was pretty run down, but had the typical amusement park flat rides (i.e. Scrambler, Himalaya, Octopus, etc.), the Giant Dipper coaster, and a dark ride. The dark ride was a spook house aka ghost train. When it shut down the coaster was on the verge of being torn down, but luckily a group formed to save and restore it.
Most of what now exists at Belmont Park is basically new, except for the coaster and The Plunge pool (although that has been totally renovated and looks nothing like it originally did).
Thanks for sharing! We had a good time down there!
Best RUclips channel of 2024 🎉🎉🎉 we love you guys
Thank you!
Hi Sean and Charlotte!! Love the US videos! So glad y'all are enjoying your visit! Please go to Pigeon Forge and try the new Monster Mountain rides!!! Love you guys keep on keeping on!!❤
Thank you, it’s a great area and we will definitely be back in the future!
Great video Shawn and Charlotte from Belmont Park located in San Diego, California! Keep the good videos coming on the channel. Shawn and Charlotte from the trip from California. 😀😃👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Imagine if we had a Time Machine and could bring someone who rode Giant Dipper in 1925 and put them on Steele Vengeance 😂😂
If only!
Great vlog Shawn and Charlotte 👍👍😃😃
Thanks!
I love the Giant Dipper ... its one of those coasters that is so much fun while your back is realigned/adjusted and cheaper than a chiropractor!
It’s a great ride. Just quite rough!
I've just realised you feature on our TV more than anything else. You guys are amazing appreciate your content so much guys!
Thank you for watching, we’re glad that you enjoy the channel!
Looks amazing 😮
It had a great atmosphere down there!
If you consider dollar inflation (average 2.96% per year) the inital cost of $150,000 for building the Giant Dipper in 1925 equivalates to just under $2.7 million in 2024 👍
Definitely worth the cost!
I’m so happy you are both having such a great time here in California! You are hitting all the good spots for sure!! PS, the General Sherman Tree is the largest tree on earth and is a sequoia. I highly recommend checking it out on your next visit to California❤❤
Thank you!
I went to this park back in 2000. I didn’t ride the coaster. Not sure why. I remember the beach being VERY dirty. I wondered how would you guys would compare the coaster in Santa Cruz. I’m really enjoying your California vlogs. As a Cali citizen, it’s nice to know the state is showing you guys a good time.
I thought about you guys last night. Seeing how you plan these trips, and talk about future parks during a vlog, one could plan to go to a park on the same day and probably run into you guys. That would be cool!
Looking forward to the rest of your Cali vlogs!
Thank you, we’re having a great time!
👍👍
It's so interesting how the California coast has two similar wooden coasters, both named Giant Dipper, both white with red tracking, both by the beach, and only 1 year apart in age.
It's hard to remember which is which 😂
It is indeed. We enjoyed this, however the Santa Cruz ride is so much better!
fantastic theme park worldwide funny moments already.
Thank you!
Fantastic video!! I could almost taste that mint ice cream!
It was delicious!
Big shout out to me and my hubby for our 20th anniversary! 24.09.24 xxx
Have a wonderful day!
Lahaina Beach House, actually, sorry, my Spanish spelling is rusty.
Wetzel's Pretzels!! Make sure you try them with cheese sauce next time you see one!! I had once when on the west coast and so good! Can't get here in Ohio (land locked) as far as I know. Looks like a cute park!
Hi guys, what camera are you using for this and what editing software do you use? Still Sony Vegas?
It sure is, along with our DJI Osmo Pocket 3
Is it bigger than the Big Dipper at Blackpool with its name being the Giant Dipper 2:27
Stay classy San Diego...
I actually visited that park 8 years ago when I was in San Diego for a business trip. Very nice boardwalk park! Just amazing views from the park. Nothing like a southern California sunset!
Love a SoCal sunset 😍
Nice
You guys are living it up. more power to you. Great channel
Thank you!
I rode The Giant Dipper twice. Once in the back and then once in the front. That is a front row coaster. Good old Roller Coaster.
It’s a good fun ride!
Love the park, never been but seems really cool. Wonder if they will do an event for the Giant dipper 100 birthday next year, that ice cream though looked 😋😋
I’m sure that they will do!
Love the, mint ice cream 🍦 ❤❤❤
Fantastic vlog, Shawn. This, to me, is what it's all about - a great location by the sea and a classic coaster. Sounds like the Giant Dipper could ride better, but it really does look the part with all those lights.
Definitely
Some history Belmont has coaster long beach had coaster and Santa Monica had a coaster. Pikes peak In long Beach pikes peak was old also and in little rascals playing hockey u can see on RUclips, I thought it was in coney island but I was wrong , at the end of it's a mad mad world you sre Santa Monica coaster at end of movie , they tore l down pier and ruins were in ocean for a long time till they built pacific park
Thanks for sharing!
Woodies are the best 😃
Hi Shawn and Charlotte lve got more news did you know that Chessington world of adventure were think about get a new black rollercoaster 😊 because the park planning it just to let you know ❤
It’s very exciting!
hi
Love all the vlogs from California! Wish I could go but can't afford it so it's great to watch your videos x
Thank you, hopefully you’ll be able to visit at some point 😄
Ahh! Just missed you guys, going this weekend!
Have fun!
Cool ❤
Apart from the Giant Dipper, what was your best
As we only rode the Giant Dipper, it has to be that 😉
What camera do you use just wondering
We use a DJI Osmo Pocket 3
I saw you guys today at Belmont park today
We are at Disneyland today!
I think it recently had a retract, could you tell ?
It didn’t feel like it had, however it’s a very historic ride!
Awesome Video Guys 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😁
Thanks!
Hello Shawn and Charlotte 👋
1st
Welcome back Shawn Actually, 9 years ago the wrist band price was the same with One difference, in the afternoon you could purchase one for half price, which was why you and the boys got one for $22. They don't offer that option now. I believe the VR attractions are gone as well, not sure though, it's been awhile since I've been down there. Should you visit us again in the future I must recommend "La Hinas" as a dinner spot. It's located a mile or so further up Mission Blvd with a deck right on the beach. It's at Pacific Beach and the coaster is Mission Beach. PB Is the real night spot, awesome beach vibe you and Charlotte would enjoy I believe.
Are you and Shaun old friends.
It’s a shame that they don’t do that offer now, as it’s very expensive for what’s on offer!
@@70AD-user45 I'm just a long time fan
What a cool place 😍 great vlog!
Thanks for joining us!
Nice!
loved this!
Thank you!
Awesome very nice hope you and Charlotte well charlottes ice cream looks very yummy 😋 good you have lovely time both of you 🎉🎉❤❤

@@ThemeParkWorldwide I bet it was lol
Loving the vlogs so far 🎉can't wait for sfmm and X2 🤟💪🎢
Thank you. It’s on the way soon!
That’s probably the small size as well 3:07
As a kid in the 60s we stayed at the bajia hotel in mission bay across the street from the coaster. I was 7 they wouldn't let me go on
It seems like a great area!
@ThemeParkWorldwide pike and pier are just memories also Busch Gardens Van Nuys is just a brewery now used to be a park you can see it on RUclips, also beverly park was a amusement park where beverly center is now , had cheap look and pony rides went there as a kid Walt Disney decided to build Disneyland cos this place was so bad , you can find this place on RUclips also
There's also Sesame Place San Diego down in Chula Vista. It's a newer amusement park. It used to be a water💧park. 1st under the name Knott's Soak City, then changed to Aquatica. Glad you're enjoying your trip in San Diego
There is indeed, it was closed else we would have visited! Thanks for watching 😄
You're welcome. Thanks for having such an amazing channel. I've been on Giant Dipper at Belmont Park. Such a classic. Can't believe it's turning 100 next year. I did see that Sesame Place is only open on the weekends this time of year. Can't wait to see your vlogs from Magic Mountain & the Disneyland Resort. Love you guys.
Hope you also enjoy SeaWorld San Diego
Wow another seaside fair
Great Boardwalk atmosphere!
The bikes were COOL!!
It was awesome to see them!
Looks awesome in the dark with the lights on 3:48
Belmont Park is a very nice looking boardwalk park, I love the overall atmosphere of it! 🏖️🎢♥️♥️💛💛🩵🩵💜💜😎😎😎😁😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Maybe for a future vlog, you can visit Paultons Park and check out the construction of the upcoming Ghostly Manor attraction.
We had a great time. We’ll definitely be back at Paultons again soon!
