EDIT: Nevermind, thought it was similar to Caribbean Cove at SFGAdv Hurricane Harbor but I realize it sounds more complex than that.

Wow, it's been so long since this park last operated that I complete forgot they were receiving one of these.

I'm starting the process of getting back on track and making some serious assessments of my daily habits. I was already in a bad place before the pandemic hit, and quarantine / working from home exacerbated all of my worst tendencies. My weight / health paid the price - I'm at a point where I have trouble walking up and down my street without having to sit down and rest my back.
I signed up for Noom earlier because I like the approach of focusing on the psychology behind weight loss and changing habits, rather than solely focusing on the food itself. I need some serious changes in my relationship with food, how I perceive it, how I use it, and fix a lot of the underlying mental issues behind it. I'm also trying to find a therapist that specializes in food addictions as well.
Here's to another first step!

Maybe the shorter version Six Flags is sending around is the better way to go, then. Maybe the fact that Dino Alive turned into a running joke among coaster nerds about how much space they were taking up from "MOER COASTARRRS!" is clouding my judgment a bit.

The Tickler at Luna Park in Coney Island. Got a bunch of decent spins, too!
This unfortunately is still true. For a long time it was COVID-related, but now it's mainly a need to have to make some serious progress on the waistline before coasters can be a realistic thing again.
-
I guess, it just is something that doesn't interest me, and I'm surprised there'd actually be some demand for that. Was Dino Alive for Cedar Fair ever that well received?

Park has already confirmed that this is not Jersey Devil related. Animatronic Dinosaur walkthrough. Same one that was previously done in New England
Ugh, somehow I missed that SFNE was doing that.
-
Note the "tail". Pretty sure they're gonna announce when we can expect Jersey Devil to open on 5/18.

Speed of Sound @ Walibi Holland. 3773.90 miles. Missed out on Goliath by 0.1 miles.
Vekoma Boomerangs ruining everything, again.
-
The most recent video update they made was really informative, it was cool to see what they're envisioning for theming / langscaping.

I'm all for the Jersey Shore!

Looks like you had a blast!!

Was hoping Harley would've been open when I went back in 2019, but it wasn't meant to be. Oh well.
Cyborg was apparently back up and running this last weekend, so I think it may be safe (for now, at least).

Wow surprising... two defunct parks in two years for them. As theme park lovers, we own them a few visits to help them get off the ground in their effort to keep these historic parks operating.
And I almost spit out my coffee at the quote - Unfortunately, we had a wire transfer of money that didn’t clear in time,” said Melvin Brown, Fresh Development’s founder. - Typical South Jersey bull***t, what an excuse! It's not my fault!!!
Yea, my thoughts exactly. Real "Prince Desmond" vibes here.
I thought Fresh Development's plan sounded farfetched to begin with, and while their intentions are admirable, I think this shows the right bidder won. If you manage to screw up the basic act of raising money in time, then you would've probably continued to mismanage the park and run it into the ground like all the past owners.

Thanks for that, just watched it. Wow, yea, that definitely changes things over there, and hard to really discern a reason for it.
-
Are there any photos of the trees by TT? I've tried finding some online but haven't been able to see what others are talking about.
-
This is admirable, but I'll put it in the "I'll believe it when I see it" category.

Great Adventure responded to a question on social media a few weeks ago saying they didn't remove any attractions this year.
I've a feeling Six Flags as a whole chose to revisit their initial plans and only removed a few throughout the chain. Guess we won't know for sure until the rest of the parks open up and we can see firsthand.
-
I somehow totally missed this. Was that horseshoe element that bad maintenance-wise? I enjoyed it when I rode it, can't imagine it was reprofiled due to complaints.
-
Awesome pic!! Those drinks look gooooooood lol. What are they?
-
I don't have any real "regrets" - any of the coasters I missed out on are technically still open.
I missed riding Wonder Woman at SFFT by a week, but that was just a timing issue with my work trip.
I've missed out on a couple of rides because of a walk of shame. The only two I'm a bit bummed on missing are Colossus at Thorpe Park (only time I'd have been able to experience one of those 10-inversion Intamin models) and V2 at SFDK (because of its uniqueness and the fact that it was actually operating with NO wait during my trip there).
-
It's the same connection on not just all Star Flyers, but almost all Wave Swings, too. I'm sure a closer, detailed picture would show how it's actually very secure with more than one connection point.
-
Not to mention that you're looking at minimum a 90-120 minute commute both ways from where you live. It's unfortunate, but it just doesn't sound reasonable. Maybe try something closer.

I didn't have the best of weekends - I had a couple commitments where I didn't worry too much about what I ate. I was focused more on changing a couple other bad habits during the week, which I made a little progress on. Didn't cut certain foods completely out of the diet yet, but I definitely ate them less frequently.
Noom has been a help, but I need to get better at doing it every day. I did like the first three days consecutively, then I forgot about it for a couple days.
Overall down 3lbs, though.
