Cedar Point is FAR.

I do want to go there one day though.

I've been to MM 4 or 5 times, but not for a few years. Last time I went, I think it was X2 that made me blackout for a second!

I've also been to Cedar Point (about 20 years ago).

A looong time at least 4-5 years. When X2 was still X.

I can't believe Freefall is gone

I haven't been to Magic Mountain in about eight years or so myself. I think it might be time for me to go too.

Reg. price is $56.99 I think? Parking kills though at $15.00 and food is insane there. I think a bowl from Panda Express runs $12.

Yeah Valencia gets crazy hot in the summer. Going to have to go on Log Jammer and Roaring Rapids a few times I think.

Need to find my waterproof bag to bring.

ah thats more like an amusement park

i think cedar point has actually gotten cheaper the past few years. under 50 bucks now. but yeah..food is crazy expensive. the $5 pop in a vending machine is what kills me lol

X has become X2 and they redesigned the ride trains to prevent so much breakdown. Flames shoot at you on the track and they remodeled the entire line with flatscreens.

I'll take plenty of pictures tomorrow and have a full review up on Sunday.

Don't forget to check out the park's first roller coaster. An oldie, but still one of my favs!

I went on Gold Rusher 5 times. It's best at night since there are only lights on the way up the hill.

The line for X2 was 4 hours. We got in at 10:30 and by the time we made our way over to x2 and got on it, it was 2:30. That was horrible.

We were able to ride:

X2
Tatsu
Riddler's Revenge
Deja Vu
Gold Rusher
Ninja(I didn't want to go on it though)

Crowded but not insane. X2 is just crazy.

Next trip will be to Knott's Scary Farm in October!

Be prepared for the steep hills throughout the day. My feet felt like falling off after a day there.

Yeah that's the other reason I didn't want to ride Ninja, worst place to put a coaster in the entire park.

Something sad happened, there was a car on fire right at the foot of the hill leading up to the park. Imagine if that family planned that trip for a long time, for it to end like that is just sad.
