Six Flags Discovery Kingdom this time. This park is actually quite impressive, not because of the coasters but how much there was to do other then coasters, as im sure many of you know they also have animals at this park. On Friday the park wasn't crowded at all and lines were short, but on Saturday that place was a mad house! strange enough the lines were not even long, i guess because there was so much else to do at this park.
Ride Count:
-Boomerang (I Finally got one! and I LOVED IT) - 3
-Cobra (kiddie) - 2
-Kong (SLC) DEATH DEATH DEATH!!! This one was exceptionally bad - 1
-Medusa (floorless) smooth as glass - 6
-Road Runner Express (I hate zamperla) - 1
-Roar (This was my first GCI, it was great!) - 4
-Tony Hawk (This one has a different layout then the other's) - 2
-V2 (I really love the 45 degree tower! My 50th Credit!) - 29
