The event is May 23rd and 24th. It should be an awesome time, it was last year. For those of you who haven't ridden The Voyage and you are going on this trip, you're in for a treat if you like aggressive/out of control woodies!!! The Raven and Legend aren't too shabby either, and seem to run MUCH better at night and during the events (I'm thinking HW tweaks the rides a little before the events to make sure they run their best)

Here are some of my pictures from last years event...

I also forgot to mention how we are "navigating" this trip.

We (myself, George, Clint, and I think Matt) will be flying out of Philly, landing in Lousiville around 11 am Friday morning. We're staying at the Santa's Lodge across the street from the park, staying 2 nights. Between the 2 rooms I booked, I can fit a max of 10 people(if you buddy up in the beds) with the beds in the room and fit an air mattress and/or cot in each room, so add 2 more to each room if need be. As of now I have a total of 7 so there's room for at least 3 more.

Saturday we might try to make a run down to Beech Bend in the morning before the night rides start at Holiday World. Sunday will be a SFKK day and then we fly home around 7:00 p.m. that night

Yeah, late night Voyage ERT is the holy grail of wooden coasterdom...if you like your woodies intense like we do!

I still don't have my itinerary finalized. I really want to go to Indiana Beach on Sunday and somewhere else on Monday to make the most out of my 4-day weekend. Might do Kings Island on Monday. I'm a slut for night rides on The Beast and love me some Top Gun and still need the Italian Job credit.

^I wish I could join you on that entire trip but it just doesn't seem likely. I can TRyY to swindle something at work. I'm thinking maybe I can ask for Monday as one of my days off from work for the following week. If I score that, it's on!

overlord · « **Reply #5 on:** March 23, 2008, 12:15:12 AM »

I would be down for the whole Kings Island as well. I will probably have my Platinum Pass by then so it will be free. I have to see if George would be able to do that. If he can't, I can't.

Make him go!!!

Why can't you go if he can't??

AV Matt · « **Reply #7 on:** March 23, 2008, 01:16:54 AM »

Yes! Do it now! We might not even need a car if my buddy Clint Beavers makes it as planned. And we can still stop at SFKK for a credit run and some Anton lovin' before heading up to Indiana Beach.

Why can't you go if he can't??

Because he is my traveling partner. Plus my parents would not like that.

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #9 on:** March 23, 2008, 03:52:23 AM »

So we are contemplating trying to figure out away to get another park in to the mix if we fly home Monday night instead... Dollywood is what we are thinking. Clint/George... how does that tickle you???

I really have no desire to get to PKI again... so we were thinking either Dollywood or SF St. Louis.

AV Matt · « **Reply #10 on:** March 23, 2008, 04:02:07 AM »

Sorry guys. Me and my big mouth.

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #11 on:** March 23, 2008, 04:03:58 AM »

No no no no... no need to apologize.

These are good ideas... SFStL would be free, but kind of out of the way and they'd have 2 new credits for me... plus The Boss and Mr Freeze...

Dollywood is totally new to me... ahh the options. I hate you Matt.

AV Matt · « **Reply #12 on:** March 23, 2008, 04:52:02 AM »

The Boss! Oh man...

overlord · « **Reply #13 on:** March 23, 2008, 11:23:41 PM »

I like the Dollywood idea. We get to ride all these top rated woodies in one trip!

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #14 on:** March 23, 2008, 11:26:37 PM »

As long as I get my arse on The Voyage I'm happy

Everything else is just a bonus.

AV Matt · « **Reply #15 on:** March 23, 2008, 11:46:28 PM »

I really want to go to Indiana Beach AND DollyWood. Decisions decisions... $:-\$

I can't listen

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #17 on:** March 28, 2008, 03:23:30 PM »

Well... minor change of plans for me. I am getting transferred to a new Wendy's and will only be able to spend Friday/Saturday out there. I'm still staying at Satan's Lodge though.

Is that in the Halloween-themed section?

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #19 on:** March 28, 2008, 03:44:19 PM »

Yes... it's the section that you have to run through really fast because there are large guys dressed in all red trying to stab you with pitchforks.

darkridedan · « **Reply #20 on:** March 28, 2008, 04:05:25 PM »

Cool. I bet the pool will be heated.

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #21 on:** March 28, 2008, 05:33:05 PM »

It's filled with liquid hot magma.

AV Matt · « **Reply #22 on:** March 28, 2008, 05:37:39 PM »

And sharks with frickin' laserbeams attached to their heads!

darkridedan · « **Reply #23 on:** March 28, 2008, 05:40:03 PM »

~~Like the wave pool?!~~

It was a hairy guy that swam over to us and wouldn't leave. Nevermind.

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #24 on:** March 29, 2008, 01:30:43 AM »

Ahhh... I remember that guy... I think his hair floated over my way a few times... gross!
