Cedar Point 8/5/2010

[bobbinbop20]

Yes, Another trip to Cedar Point, this one was very very very quick, we were only there for about 4 hours. Basically we were on the east coast and we were gonna go to Great Adventure but my dad had to get home to get work done, I know heart break right? So he felt bad and we decided to stop at Cedar Point on the way home since it's right on the way

But hey if I can't get Kingda Ka I'll gladly Accept Dragster, which is practically my favorite rollercoaster ever. Period. Although I'm sure some people know nothing beats X2.

We had just enough time to ride the only worthy 3 rides there, like always the infamous trio. Top Thrill Dragster, Maverick, Millennium Force. In that order

It's our own little tradition that we always ride Dragster first, its both my sister and mines favorite ride at CP, although Maverick comes VERY VERY VERY close. And I mean VERY VERY CLOSE, but at both rides peak performances Top Thrill Dragster is just better, plus the ride just has this awesome vibe all around it because it's the tallest thing for miles.

Dragster was running awesome, we didn't have enough time to ride in the front row but it was still running really really good which kinda helped make up for it. Still anywhere you sit on this masterpiece is gonna give you an awesome ride. I. Love. Dragster. pure speed is what it's all about, I think my favorite part though is when you get to the top and just look down and see Millennium Force way below you, that's when you realize just how high up you really are. We waited an hour and 4 minutes for Dragster, but Dragsters line always seem to go by the fastest I'm not quite sure why but it just does.

We walked over to Maverick, got Chick fil a, which is my favorite fast food restaurant and they don't have any of them where I live so I don't miss out on the opportunity.

Waited 35 minutes for a front row seat on Maverick, I refuse to sit anywhere but the front on Maverick just because if you sit anywhere else your neck really just slams into the restraint and it kills. Maverick was running great as always, such good airtime on this one.

After that we walked to Millennium Force, the one we have mixed feelings for, used to hate it but now I love it. I've had bad rides and awesome rides. I must say Millennium Force's queue at night is awesome, we dance like idiots to the crazy techno music they play, and everyone stares :wave:

On this particular day it was running just ok, not quite as amazing as it was this June, but still a very good ride and worth the wait, although my mom was getting a little testy because she had to wait in the parking lot for 20 minutes because I refused to leave without riding Millennium.

Overall it was a nice little "quickie" to Cedar Point....

Oh and there's not many pictures and the quality sucks in a few because I didn't feel like carrying my camera around I only took pictures with my Iphone. Sorry.

I don't understand why they have this stupid single rider line, it's pointless

That weird red light that is over the train. BTW ride this ride toward the front of the train, the back is boring.

This one was from when I went in June, but I never uploaded it because it's on my phone so here you go.

And that's the end.

Found you and your sister on the webcam. I need to go back to Indiana and go to these parks.

[bobbinbop20]

[Jp]

oh haha, ok I get it. Yeah, have you ever been to CP before?

[Jp]

Nope, the only parks in the Midwest that I have been to is Six Flags St. Louis, Indianapolis Zoo, and Kings Island.

Wow, you make me so jealous! "My dad felt bad, so we stopped at Cedar Point on the way home." Sounds like a fun time.

Yeah cedar point is always fun, and we were suppose to go to great adventure which I would have preferred seeing as I've only been their once, so ther had to be a backup plan

I guess it's the fanboy coming out of me, but I like hearing that statement.

Well I really wish I went to Cedar Point. My mom, who use to ride every thing, can't ride any inverted rides because she get's vertigo, can't ride any spinning rides/coasters because she'll get sick, and can't ride any rough coasters or she'll have a migraine. My dad pukes whenever he goes on a coaster. My bro will go on anything, but he complains that he rather be home and if we go somewhere, we shouldn't go with just family. So the chances of going is slim, but hopefully I could go one day in the near future. Plus my cousin is going to Cedar Point some time next week because he's on this big trip to upstate New York, Cedar Point, and Toronto.
