So  is that a 50% discount for VIPeter tours for GAdvupdates members!!
 ;D

I wish I had the authority to approve that discount.  It would be cool to have VIP tour with all updates members.

Yeah.  We could play "Stump the tour guide" :D  ....jk of course lol

Seriously though, if anybody I knew was coming in from out of town and wanted a single day park trip I would all but force them to do the VIP tour.   And of course I would check to make sure Peter was working that day to :)

Peter...I was only kidding!

Definitely...With everything included in the VIP tour (food/pictures/pay rides)  it is easily worth the price.  You just have to look at everything they are giving you.

And to get this thread back on topic...
I'm 99.99999% sure I'll be there opening day!

I'm going to miss seeing Chuck first in line at El Toro while we're first in line at Rolling Thunder just like it was last year.

We are going saturday no matter what . Sunday is too busy around here and with school the next day too much work for me to get the kids ready the next morning . So if everyone is going to meet up just post when and where . I will try to make a stop by to meet everyone and say HI

The weather report for Saturday looking worse and worse.

Look on the bright side! It will make Rolling Thunder run as it should and it has a nice effect on El Toro as well!! Buccaneer, Tango and Fantasy Fling might be closed. 
Prepare to weather the storm!

Yes rain will keep them away
if they keep Toro and Nitro open it will be worth it
just bring the safety goggles  ;)

I already got my Kingda Ka rides in the Rain last year  :D

I actually like going when its a little drizzly  its like walk-ons

I don't know if we will be there at opening and we have to wait on the HUGE guest relations line to get our season passes from the master card program. I am hopeful that they day will turn out like today some rain in the morning and then clearing at least for a little while . MY son is so looking forward to Rolling thunder and runaway train . Well at least we will get our passes processed if nothing much else .
