Since i live in florida, i have quite a few home parks, but the one i closest to is busch gardens which is only two hours away which is not much, and might i add it's one of the best theme parks in the south!!

This topic has already been posted but that was a long time ago. Anyway, I have 2 home parks that are the same distance. Those parks are IOA and Universal Studios (about 83 miles away).


Edit-- Don't get smart G-Force.

Dirk, man, you've got some good ones near you...

For me, it's Six Flags Great America, which is a couple hours away, and Indiana Beach is only about 3 hours away, as are the Dells, which I'd like to get up to to ride Hades and Avalanche next year.

The closest for me Is Flamingo Land which is about an hours drive, but I can reach pretty much all of the parks in the UK within about 4 hours (Excluding Oakwood)

I can see my home park out of my bedroom window...Wicksteedpark. Its a kids park but it stills rocks [lol] Its about 1/4 mile down the road from my house. It takes about 5 mins to get there, and 25 getting back due to the fact i live on top of a hill. Other than that Drayton Manor is about 45 mins away AT is about 75 mins Thorpe Park about 2 hours and Blackpool about 3
