Have you looked into uber or lyft? -
Sorry about the delay on part 3...been a crazy week. I did throw some pictures from a trip to the park that I took several years ago as well. So here we go... I really enjoy this ride. Pre show prop This show was beyond terrible This show was good! The park has a decent collection of kids rides. The kids will also like the looney tunes Do they use this anymore? There is also another animal area The kids can feed the goats in this area Gaters! I was really impressed how clean and well kept the park was. They also had some great theaming. Here is the mine train station And the God awful restraints. Does anybody know if this is an old car from rolling thunder? El Toro greatness! Kingda ka construction area I "think" this ride was called tax twister, or something along those lines. If I remember, it used to be near Houdini. The log ride midway before the safari Medusa The scream machine Viper...now el toro's area You can see el toro's station used to be used for this togo death machine On behalf of Fred and Willma, I say goodbye from six flags great adventure. Stay tuned for the next update from Hershey chocolate world.

Didn't this park have an slc laying around a few years ago? If so, where is it now? Wonder why it was never built. As much as I dislike slc's, it would be a great fit for this park. -

I'm 6'3 tall, and had no problems if that helps. Wooden warriors restraints are the most comfortable I have ever experienced. -

This is why I prefer six flags fast lane. You reserve a time, and return to the ride at that time to get right on. Depending on the level you get, depends on your wait time. Regardless, you are not waiting in line and you can do whatever you want while waiting. Last time I purchased a fast lane at cedarpoint, we still had to wait in a 45 min line for Maverick. If I'm paying that much for a line skip, I shouldn't have to wait more than 5 min in line. -
I have so many pictures from this park, so I am breaking it down into 3 updates. Here is part 2...enjoy. Skull mountain The rides line is inside a well. Station shot Zoomanjaro shares kingda kas tower. Looking up the tower Some of the buildings in this park are really theamed well. The carousel building This is one of the parks restaurants. They had awesome fried chicken btw. And the air conditioning felt great on a hot day....at least my son thought so The park had these water sprayers located around the park to help beat the heat. The dark knight coasters pre show with Harvey Dent. Fun coaster. Would have rode it a bunch of times in a row, but they make you sit thru the pre show every time. Coke was throwing a foam party several times a day. One night, we were able to score ert on superman, green lantern, go carts, parachute drop, top spin, and the sling shot for free with our diamond memberships. Here is a picture of the parks kiddy coaster...once and done. These joker coasters are popping up at most six flags parks. I'm not complaining, as these rides are a blast. It also looks great with fireworks going off behind it. The park had a really good fireworks display. I found this shirt funny. Bizarro floorless coaster. More pictures coming soon. So until then, I'll leave you with a picture of the parks turtles...Fred and Wilma.
