Yes, I've been to Great Adventure a couple of times and Hershey once. Having travelled thousands of miles to get to GA I've rented that strange Q-bot thing both times (think it has a new name now) which did make light work of the crowds. And I've got to take my family on El Toro which is one of my all time favourites, to say nothing of Kingda Ka and Nitro which also tick some boxes. I certainly would like to get Kennywood into the schedule. Would people generally agree that it would be a preferable choice over PKI as suggested earlier in this thread? I haven't been to PKI since the Beast was untamed, can't remember the year, but CP's Mean Streak was in its first season (also untamed compared to my last visit to CP three years ago).

Many thanks to you all for your help and advice, it's much appreciated.

Am planning (way in advance!) a trip for August '09. I'm a teacher so can only visit in school holidays. I have the following itinerary loosely planned and would welcome any suggestions for any further parks (water or theme) which are on or near the proposed 1000 mile circuit we're making. Indeed you may feel that we would be wasting our time visiting a particular park. Will be renting an RV.... Good and bad RV park/campsites opinions also welcome! Fly into NY Six Flags New England [ithaca. Niagara] Cedar Point PKI [somewhere between PKI and PKD] PKD Six Flags Great Adventure Fly back from NY (14/16 days) Many thanks for any feedback anyone might have. Tim Wiltshire, UK
