TimTravels - Water City! Amusement Park that accepts Bitcoin

in #photography7 years ago

Welcome back my Steemian friends to another episode of TimTravels

I hope you are enjoying the last summer days, seven days left to be accurate. Speaking of summer, what would you do on a hot day? Going to the beach, taking a sunbath, perhaps not leaving home at all because it is way too hot or simply having some ice cream with friends?

Me and my girlfriend decided to visit the biggest water park Greece offers, Watercity! We checked TripAdvisor and wanted to know if all the good recommendations are legit. In the middle of Crete, somewhere between mountains and fields we found the water park. We didn't expect to find it there since we felt to be in the middle of nowhere.


Right the first thing that came to my attention was the big sign that says: Bitcoin accepted here! Wait a second...I visited a random water park and I can pay with Bitcoins here? I was immediately in love I knew this is going to be a great day. The staff explained that there are also Bitcoin ATMs.

I didn't hesitate and paid my entrance like a boss with crypto currency! Who knows, maybe next time I can pay my ice with Steem Dollars?



Look closely. Did you spot it? Myths! Seems like you guys miss my Myth or Fact articles and someone had to drawn my attention to it. Fair enough, a new episode is already in the making and will be published this week.



There were so many different slides and I couldn't decide where to start. Only one thing was clear, that I have to try them all.


Not a single cloud was spotted this day






You know you are in Greece when you see many sculptures made of marble


Me having some fun with the tire slide, my favourite one. It gives you the longest ride, becomes at one point pitch black and throws you into the water


I hope you enjoyed this episode of TimTravels and that you will habe some good last days of summer. Tell us how you will spend your next days and what you love to do hot days. The most creative comment wins 10 Steem.

See you soon and steem on!

I am not entirely sure what you mean old chap. What is it that you are after?

and.... where the heck did you get that wristband? did i miss something important???

Steemfest number 1! I still have mine! Although I lasted nowhere near as long as this wearing it, that's dedication!

lol @meesterboom I actually lost track of you for a while... hope everything baby is going well... I shall visit you soon and drop some well worth upvotes there...
Happy life, my man ;-)

Happy life too you too mate, I have baby incoming in 18 days... Boom!!

Hey Tim, great photos of Water City! Looks like a blast man. My summer days seem to be dwindling away. I suppose it's not too bad since fall will be arriving soon and that's my ultimate favorite time of year.

The next few days will actually be somewhat hot, so my hot day plans are kicking into gear. I'll spend these next days firing up the grill, cooking up some tasty grub. I'll certainly sit back and have a few beers (tropical drinks for the ladies and non-beer folk).

The dog is gonna want to get in on the action too. That's when she'll go totally crazy and wild and force me to get the water hose out so that she can catch the water that goes flying out of the jet sprayer in mid air. Now that's summer. Good times, good times :)

Hope your trip to this water park was not today,or would you would have ended up paying more Bitcoin. RED RED RED everywhere.

It looks like Steem is also having SteemTravels along with TimTravels.

This is awesome, I hope to see more and more places accept bitcoin as payment. I would love to be able to go to my local pub and buy a pint with bitcoin, or pay for my flights and hotels with bitcoin, but maybe when the price is a little less volatile ;)

That looks like so much fun! I just love water parks! And how amazing that they accept bitcoin :) Did you have a gopro to film that slide with or some other waterproof camera?

I am going to celebrate the weekend and the last days of summer (even though it feels like there are a lot of them ahead of me still here in California) by waking up at 6am - yeiii - and going to a surf championship tomorrow! And then I might go out to party a bit in Los Angeles in the evening. So it is definitely going to be an exciting weekend!

Great shots, it felt like it was me at the waterpark! Yellow slide is my favorite.

Excellent stuff, the more places that accept these coins the more integrated within society they'll become.

Cool a bitcoin paradise
