Trip ReportI know that since I've been doing Photos and writing really long trip reports, that nobody reads, I'm just going to put down a few things that are worth mentioning in cronological order.
-First we did Rolling Thunder twice while racing! We did both sides, and we lost BOTH TIMES!
-When Kingda Ka opened we ran over there, and walked right on up into the station. We got the dark blue train (Blueberry Muffin). I finally poped my Blueberry Cherry and got the 3rd row. Not for nothing, this had to be the best ride I've had on KK in a ling time. The launch was a nice, smooth tug. We flew over the top so we got major ejector. And we got a lot of air on the bunny hill. That almost never happens! Also, while one station was returning, the other was dispatching at the same time! I've never seen this happen!
-We went on Kingda Ka a second time, and it was the worst ride I've ever had on it. We got Blueberry Muffin, 4th row this time. (we ran into Bimal in the station this time).
When it launched, some guy in the 1st car lost his change. It hit the kids infront of us, it went up Spike's shorts and it hit my right in my face (eye/forehead area). It hurt so bad. But wait, that's not all! As we crest the tower, more change comes flying back, and starts hitting us on the way down! Everyone behind this guy came of the train complaining. We should of filed a complaint and GR, but decided against it.
-Sky Ride had both sides open! Which was the longest wait of 20 minutes
-Rode Chiller in the "real last row" for the last time.
-Ran into Matt (Silver Bullet) and Ultimate Coaster and his sister
-We spent an hour and a half chilling at Best Of The West.
-El Toro's lift doesn't slow down as much today than earlier this month.
-El Toro was running extremely well today!
-We rerode Rolling Thunder 5 times (last time Matt, Ultimate Coaster and his sister ran into the station, and Matt sat next to me). On one of our rides, we were on the right side and the left side kept saying they were going to win, but gues what! They got pwnd! The lift stopped and when they got to the brake run, the whole train pointed and laughed at them! It was fantastic.
-Batman crew rocks! Pat (the new guy) told me he wants to be mentioned in the TR...so here he is! And Walter told Pat earlier in the day when the station was filled, that it was me a Spikes 14th birthday, and had them all sing to us!
-Overall, all the rides were running great today! I'm really impressed. Great job Great Adventure! Keep up the good work!
Photos
OH MY GOD! About damn time!
So...yea..still not ready yet!
Rolling Thunder Racing! BOO YA!
Dan was operating today! I'm sorry the picture came out blurry!
When the line is only next to the lockers! I'm happy!
After three years. I finally get to ride Blueberry Muffin.
Yea...it's tall...yea...don't wait more than 20 minutes...EVER!
I like it when El Toro's line is this short and we got on in 10 minutes...oh, and there's Spike!
No matter how hard you get stapled, this ride is still amazing!
Happy riders..plummiting. It's only fun until some one get's hurt...then it's an Intamin! (and that's not directed twords SFKK)
Damn Arrow...ruining my shot!
Sky Ride needs a new sign!
Sky Ride needs a refurb too!
The line was overflowing, because they weren't using the switchbacks!
Ah yea...double Sky Ride action! HAWT!
Main Street
NNNNNNITRO!
Just what the world needs, an other Nitro photo!
Look who we ran into again! Bimal (Kingda Ka-Nitro)
Um...yea, something happened to Congo Rapids today!
Some one explain to me why is the first car missing the logo on the wheel cap?
One shot of Batman running, and Robin not! Too bad it's the wrong Batman.
That's my kind of line for Chiller!
Our "Chiller is changed forever" Emo picture!
We decided to sit in the last row, for our true last ride on the 5 car Chiller.
Damn you Robin! Give your last car to Batman allready you selfish bastard!
Everyone point and say, "EEEEEWWWWWWWW"
Foward or Backwards?
Okay, for those of you who have been hiden in a cave on mars with there fingers in there ears and there eye lids sewn shut! Than you would know, that the current Robin train is Batman in disguise pretting to be Robin. The real Robin train (well...remaing 3 cars) are actually sitting behind Batman waiting for Robin's current last car. So it can be attatched to the new Batman train (Robin) so they will both run with 4 cars, both being red!
IT'S MATT!!!!! Oh my god! Now everyone on the internet knows what he looks like, and will now stalk through parks!
Ah yes, I love eating at Best of The West
Ah yes, the nature of this hidden area.
Typical theme park meal...if you're Spike
Oh yes, Dainan loves his ----- Juice!
See...get it! It's Catwoman!

Guess where this is in the park? If you guess correctly you win a prize!
Aren't you just tempted to throw GP's in there?
One last ride on El Toro (Number 31 for me)
Supersuck Ultimate Bore, NEXT!
Space Sh!ttle, NEXT!
GASM! Oh GASM how I <3 thou!
Broken Vending machine! How you doing Renee?
Ok seriously folks. Scream Machine isn't that bad! I only banged my head on it once today!
This is the way I like my stations!
Wiggle Vision of corprate advertising!
Time for Skully!
Yeah...no...
These two people in front of us where the only other people there. They got the front row and we got the last. It turned out, they were both ACE members too!
Ah yes, this is how you end the night!
Here's the new guy Pat. He wanted me to put him in the TR. So here he is. The first picture was blurry, so I took a second picture and some guy walked infront of me, so I moved and te picture came out like this!
Walter!!!!! See you at Hershey this weekend!
Spike and Walter (BTW guys, Spike is 5 years older than me, as Walter is only 1)
Okay, so Spike dropped me off around the corner from my house. And this is what I walked out of the car to! God damn that sucks! This is 7 houses away from me too!
One more note! I realised, last year today, was my worst visit to the park I've ever had...weird...
