    However, in the end we both think we could have had just as much fun, if not more, by watching and riding all of the bullshit rides with our daughter. For us, sharing new experiences with her is an irreplaceable feeling compared to trying to relive our past.

    Hear hear.

    I imagine it may change a bit for us back in the other direction as our kids get older and gravitate towards the larger stuff, but all depends.

  2. Glad you had a good time. I've been trying to keep your experiences with your daughter in mind as we've navigated new ride experiences for my daughter. She, too, is tall for her age but still young (won't be 3 until mid-November but is already almost 3.5ft tall). Fortunately, she's very brave and likes to try new rides, but has stopped short of coasters. We went to Storybook Land here in NJ last week which had a ton of rides she could do, all of which she rode enthusiastically except for Bubbles the Coaster, to which she said to us "I think I need to be just a little bit bigger first". She keeps asking about coasters, though, and asks to watch videos of coasters every now and then, so I figure it's just a matter of time so long as I don't force it.

    Well, had I done anything more than the bare minimum research, I would have learned that only the middle pier opened up at 1 PM and the outside two piers opened at 5 PM. Oops.

    I was actually there yesterday with my mom and 2 year old and we made the same miscalculation. Ended up on the pier with GNE first and didn't realize it didn't open until 5 until after my daughter had already picked out with horse she wanted on the carousel. Ended up being fine, just walked down to the middle one anyway.

    Then we walked all the way down to the far pier, which is much further apart from the others than the first two are, and my kid talked me into Dominos for lunch.

    THIS, however - with all the great pizza at the boardwalk (Mack's, Sam's, Franconi's, etc.), you really chose Dominos? I mean, look, I get how kids can certainly be (and mind you I'm playfully teasing you a bit here), but at some point parents have to prevent them from making terrible, life-altering decisions like eating chain pizza at the Jersey shore. 😉

    I bet they will love it over a "ride's closed" sign

    Needs to be restated x1000 times, TBH. Maybe get a skywriter to circle above the park on clear days. I'm one of the "lucky" ones who got to experience this back in 2016, but I'm much more excited this coaster can actually manage some semblance of a normal operating cycle now.

  5. ^ Me too, especially as someone who's purposefully cut ties with nearly all social media. I totally get it, but it's depressing nonetheless. At this point I'm curious if Robb and Elissa keep it around simply because it's too painful to pull the plug.
