With the need to pick up the Maxx Pass I bought from PKD LAST November... I had to make a trip to PKD this year, so why not opening weekend. Chuck, his girlfriend Mooshie, my girlfriend Melissa and myself made an early drive down to PKD (the girls first time there) It was an awesome day/night at the park. If anyone reading this goes there this year and you plan on staying until closing... get in line for Volcano right before they close the line and wait for the front. You will get a nice treat... a train with only the people in the front. They won't force you to pick other rows, like SF parks do, so since the train will weigh less, it launches faster than normal, and it's quite noticeable, definatly worth waiting an extra 20+ minutes for.
Here are some of the pics from the day...
The tower...

Very Nice TR. Looks like you guys had a ton of fun. Hopefully you didn't have any bilingual bloodfests while you were down there.

Yeah, at least we almost got a roll back though!

He was on our train. He was the extra weight that we did not need. :) Take me to PKD next time you guys go.
