The (still fairly) new Port Lagoona and Avalon look amazing.

Booster Bike doesn't really fit anymore with any of the areas. I could see a Vekoma junior invert along the lines of Dragonflier coming in the future to replace it as Maximus Blitzbaan could fill the launch coaster void long enough to give a new one (maybe a rung higher than Booster Bike) its own area.

That bike coaster doesn't seem to be much. but it can't be that old. not sure how eager they would be to removing.

I really thought the funhouse was a cool attraction to have.

It opened in 2004 and was I think was the first of its kind.

Yes, it was Vekomas first and one of only 4 installations. It's there second oldest coaster in the park.  So yes, 2004 which puts it at 15 years old.

The only thing I'd say about Maximus' Blitz Bahn is that its capacity could become a bigger issue as the park continues to expand.

Shawn mentioned it was running around 45mins, which is for sure on the higher end. Then again, I have never seen a ride like it so I would wait 75mins for it.

It's definitely worth doing.  It feels way faster than the posted speed.
