Coasters After Dark NEW TR
« on: December 08, 2008, 02:26:58 PM »
I was looking through my pictures that I had taken this season and realized I never posted pics from Coasters After Dark. I hope you enjoy!




As we arrived, the event was underway.





Everybody heading in the right direction.


We bumped into a few friends.


RJ


The Super Friends


Mel, Rob and Dom


Dom and Me



Dom put us on the last car out to Frontier Adventures. 
Well, 2nd to last; I didn't close the gate behind me.







Big Wheel needs a paint job




Cool landscaping!

Maybe Johnny Rockets works outside? I still want my song!

The busiest section of the park

Pretty nifty...

It's a race

...busy busy

Log Flume was closed and that drop tower was never built

I thought this tree look cool.


darkride




Choo-choo gone




The green bomber comes in for a landing






As you can see, it was pretty empty.
I'm not sure which rides we did that night.


I remember a ride we took on the Big Red Planes and the Big Red Cars with Ken. Too bad I erased the onride video.

Thanks Dan.  Thanks for torturing me just 1 month and a week into the off-season :(

In all seriousness, thanks for the flashback.  I needed that.  I feel warmer already :D

And don't forget that enjoyable ride on the Big Red Cars!
Just when I thought that trip report would never come.
Thanks for the surprise.

Please do Tom!

Ken, I had a video on my phone that I used to  laugh at from the Big Red Planes. I remember Rob and Melissa disappearing from sight when they would lower to the ground and Melissa was declaring that she was the plane driver and the Red Car pilot. Our first time on The Big Red Cars was a nice antique-age car ride.
