We ran into a bit of a glitch this year. It was THE busiest day that some employees say in 3 years, all summer included.
We all still had fun. We rented a great condo on the water with a view of the park - much improved from the utterly crappy hotels around there. Seriously, if anyone from the Sandusky chamber of commerce ever comes across this post, you should be embarrassed. The hotels are overpriced, and I've literally had roaches in my presence.
We had glasses for beer and wine before the park. This was the only wine glass we could find ...
We got to the park a little bit late after having a great BBQ at the condo, and only ended up getting to go on 2 rides. If anyone plans on going to Cedar Point EVER, you should buy a FAST LANE Pass. You can skip the line on almost all of the rides. It's $75 and very much worth it (on top of your regular ticket). Oh, buy it online the day before because by the time we got there they were sold out. They only sell a limited amount. They also have a super pass that lets you into any ride for $95, and a FRIGHT LANE for all of the haunted houses for $70. We've never been to one of the haunted houses there because the lines are so long.
Liz just made the height requirement for the mine right. You heard right, folks, one of the two rides we got to go on was the mine ride!
Great decorations throughout the park. This giant beast was animatronic, with a speaker. The character was saying things like, "Don't make me get up."
Sea wasn't allowed to wear his hat on the mine ride. His hair was HIGH. This picture doesn't do it justice!
The guys thought the beer line was too long, so they sat down to order from a waitress. Then they were told they had to order food. They each had one bite before leaving.
Waited 2 hours in the parking lot before getting out. It was ridiculous. And this van figured out a great way to get their GIANT carnival bear home.
Back at the condo, Sea & Franny curled up under the princess blanket
It was a good day, with our much needed hidden flasks (did I mention that the front gate didn't even ask to look inside my very large backpack? Is anyone else slightly disturbed by that?) It was beautiful weather, and the CarnEVIL and FRIGHT ZONE walkthroughs are always great.
Peace. Love. Serene
