Well I went back today around 5pm and got my unllimited pass wristband. The crowds were not bad at all. The first couple of rides I walked right on. However the line did pick up in the evening a little bit. Then at one point it started to sprinkle as we were climbing the lift and I must say, that one "wet" ride was awesome! But by the time we got on the next ride the rain had stopped for good. I ended up staying until it closed at 11pm then on the way home it started to pour! I'm still not sure what to make of it. I like the back front and middle cars. It can be a little rough in the back. And the turn at the bottom of the first drop is just insane! And I love racing past the bay and under the loading station. After riding last night and all night tonight, I am tired and will probably be a little sore tomorrow. I kept bumping my side up against the side of the seat but I managed to keep my hands up on almost every ride!

That's precisely what I was wondering. Just how would they keep track of all those people... I guess I'm just so used to LOOONNNGGG lines @ Six Flags that I won't know how to feel. The reason I asked about rerides is because that queue(from what I've seen) seems really long. I hated that excessive queue for B:TE @ SFAW. Is this queue as long as I've perceived it in pictures? Yes the line que is long. However only part of it was open tonight. And it was short. If the crowds get to big then they will open up the longer part to handle the crowds. Tonight, we just walked right on. I only had to wait on maybe two trains for the front car. I could have walked right on one of the middle cars.

Ummmm... if its a single ticket then its a single ticket. No scamming more rides. The wristband deal is a different story. It is an all day unlimited rides pass. I had one tonight. I sat back down in my seat this evening for my fourth ride since nobody was in my seats line. But then they closed the ride due to lightning so we had to exit.

Yea one of the best parts was the fact that there was no line! I walked right on! I'm still trying to take it all in. I've been making trips down there for quit a while now and have be lucky enough to witness the construction firsthand. I watched them put up framing, track, landscaping and even this morning I watched as they made the final preparations. So after months of watching wood go up and listening to hammers and saws work the moment finally arrived. I found myself making another trip down to Kemah. Only this time.... it was to ride it! I felt like a kid on Christmas Eve all day today. The coaster and que line had seemed like wrapped presents under the Christmas tree just sitting there for weeks, months waiting to be unwrapped. So when I finally steeped into the que line and made my way up to the loading station, that I had witnessed being erected from a far for so long, it was kind of surreal. Then that magical moment finally happened.... I boarded the front car and prepared to ride the Bullet. And boy did the paper come flying off this present... It was nothing short of magic.

One word: AWESOME! I LOVE THIS RIDE! I couldn't make it down there until late but I managed to get three rides in, once in the front car, and two rides in the very back car. Then around 9pm or so.... came the lightning. Yep, a thunderstorm. So the ride was shut down until it passed. I waited around to see if the storm would pass but it just keept thundering with light rain so I left. Darn lighnting!
