Which amusement park in 2005 do you look forward to going to?

I can't wait to get back up to Cedar Point! biggrin.gif

CP, HW, and hopefully USF. Yeah, all parks I've been to already, but 2 of the 3 have new coasters since the last time I visited.

I wanna go back to USF and ride ROTM until i puke on it...that will guarantee a lifetime of rides on it.

05 looks to be another good year for me. You all know how I made that big trip to Pennslyvania and NYC? Well we are doing the same thing but we are going to California! Oh and we are flying. The parks we are looking to hit are SFMM, KBF, PGA, SFMW...I'm alos looking to make a trip up north to hit PCW and Martins Fantasy Island. Indiana Beach looks to be one on the map too.

As for parks I've been too, Dorney is a definate due to the fact Hydra is looking to be one hell of a ride. Talon alone is worth the trip out there but now that Hydra is shaping up to rock, it just makes it that much better. GL looks to be one to go this year since CF has had time to figure things out up there. I'll also do the usual HW,SFKK,CP.

Oh and PKI

I'm feeling a PKI-SFKK-CP-HW connection going on for me this summer... nothing particularly special.

Ummmm... hopefully something other than pki, coney island, and wonder park. I need to get around and ride something. And here's a confession: I have never been to Cedar Point, and I have no idea what it looks like.

Cedar Point

Paramounts Kings Island

Geauga Lake

Kentucky Kingdom

Kings Dominion

Hopefully this will work out, but its not set in stone yet! laugh.gif

In my coaster tour vacation:

Busch Gardens Tampa Bay

Universal Studios Florida

Islands of Adventure

Kennedy Space Center

Paramount's Carowinds

Dollywood

Regular and day trip parks:

Paramount's Kings Island of course

Holiday World

Cedar Point (and maybe Geauga Lake and/or Paramount's Canada's Wonderland along with it)

Strickers Grove

Possibly, but doubtful, Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom

So I am looking to hit 10 parks. Possibly 13. I am going to bring up my coaster count! cowboy.gif

I want to try out Geauga Lake. Maybe Dorney Park and Hersheypark. If I can manage it, a trip to Holiday World.

SFMM isn't nearly as good as it seems. I personally hated my trip there, even though they do have some (emphasis on SOME) good rides.

As usual:

PKI

SFKK

Cedar Point

Geauga Lake

Also:

Holiday World (first time since SRM '03)

Six Flags St. Louis*

Kennywood*

Conneaut Lake*

Knoebel's*

Dutch Wonderland*

Hersheypark (last in 2004)

Dorney Park (ditto)

Six Flags Great Advenuture*

NYC*/Coney Island*

Even though it's in Columbus:

Wyandot Lake*

*parks I've never been to

I really can't wait till me and my dad go back to Cedar Point. We always have a blast. biggrin.gif

------------------------------------

Vortex crew/05

My 2005 season will be- annual trip to Kings Island- 5 times, Cedar Point- 3 times,

geauga lake- 2 times, hershey park- 1 time, kings dominion-first time going- 1

time, be there 2 days. Day trips- kennywood- at least 15 times. I can't wait

for the season to begin.

CP, HW, and hopefully USF. Yeah, all parks I've been to already, but 2 of the 3 have new coasters since the last time I visited.

"Hopefyully my first visit to HW, and possibly a return visit to SFKK, was last there back in 1996, and did not ride Chang or T2."

Are CP and USF getting coasters? HW is only getting a wave pool and a "Zero Gravity" Ride... and Second Train on Raven!

Note: Chang openned in 1997, and therefore you COULD NOT have ridden it, duh!

T2 was operational... and Thunder Run. Did you ride Vampire? just like FACE/OFF, but track is below the train. they only had RollerSkater, Thunder Run, Vampire, & T2... not a gtrand selection, so one would assume the headliner was Thunder Run, the only non-production model ride in the park! LOL

Kentucky kingdom IS worth hitting for anybody in the area *ahem* Klockster, you should hit it on the way back from HW... find a cheap hotel or something... Kentucky Kingdom Sucks, but they do have a few coasters that are pretty good... Thunder Run, Greezed Lightnin', Chang, The Pink "Lola" Twisted Twin... not so much the green (aka Stella). the whole park needs repainting, and it gets loud when planes are landing and taking off...

Note also: SFKK is basically built under an airport! so there are red flashing lights on anything taller than 100 feet I believe. tongue.gif So anyhow... dont just blow it off, It takes me two hours to get there, but I visited 5 times this past year, which is way less than HW, but 2.5 times more than my PKI Visits... also: get to SFKK a bit early, and rush across "The Bridge" it isnt crowded over there at frist, and you go ahead and get Chang and T2( OW!) out of the way... and circle around throught the Woods of the Wicked and out of the International Village and back across the Bridge, head to the left and wrap by the Action theater, then the Hellevator, Wild Mouse (aka Roadrunner) and Finally Greezed Lightnin' My Fav Steel!!! If you haven't ridden It, you wouldn't know. And for those of you who think I am dumb for that being my favorite, just back off. I like it, and it is very good, no records, but nice nice ride, a bit of history. Greezed Lightnin' is (for those of you who don't know) a Drop Weight Model Launched Shuttle Looper... Ive ridden when it faults out, It was nice.

Fright*Fest is a good time to visit there though, not big crowds, but they show up a bit towards the later times... vist early during Fright*Fest, later in the day gets a little busy, but not even enough to put both trains on Chang! so you wait, FOREVER! offtopic.gif

I'm pretty excited about getting up to Cedar Point this summer. I always have fun there no matter what. I have fun on the way up, while I'm there, and on my way back. All in all, if it involves CP its fun.

I'm only making one trip to Kings Island this year, in order to ride IJ:ST.

The rest of my sumer is dedicated to Cedar Point.

I am looking forward to them all but PKI the most.

As a gold season pass member our family will be at PKI a ton. I am also planning another visit to Bush Gardens Williamsburg. In case there are other Military folks on this board, Anheuser Busch is offering Free admission to any of its parks for you and up to 3 members of your immediate family. You can register online of at the front gates. What a great offer!
