From my snapchat. Definitely tells you what the weather was like. Weather looks semi dry for the morning today so it looks like we'll hit the park for a couple hours then head to Kansas City!

Well we are checked into our first hotel of the trip after a few hours at Six Flags. It was dark and gloomy and we got a few showers. Not good for taking pictures so none in this update. Before I go on to my thoughts of the park, our plan is to go to the park again tomorrow morning until about 1 in the afternoon then heading to worlds of fun. This is depending on the weather. Not looking good right now. So anyways, this park was really a pleasant surprise! Good rides, fantastic operations, friendly staff, well kept, and beautiful park all around. American thunder was very smooth and just what you expect from a GCI. Mr. Freeze was tons of fun. Can't wait for more rides on this. Screaming Eagle was a ton of fun too. Great speed. Scorecard for the day: American Thunder: 2x Mr Freeze: 1x Screaming Eagle: 1x Superman Tower of Power: 1x Batman: 1x Ninja: 1x (never again) Mine train: 1x Pandemonium: 1x Lots of fun in a few hours at the park. Very impressed. Now off to bed. It's been a long day!

Respect your opinion dude. Can't all agree sometimes. To each his own.

We thought about it. I know I really want to go but not everybody wants to so I'll have to settle for more time at Six Flags. Which isn't a big deal since we have passes. Hopefully on a future trip we'll add the city museum to the itinerary.

Hello all, tomorrow we are leaving for our annual coaster vacation. This year's includes 3 new parks (all 3 parks in Missouri) and 3 more we visit yearly. The schedule is as follows: August 5th: Drive from Cleveland to SFSL. Enjoy the park until closing. August 6th: Go back to Six Flags for a little while then head out to Worlds of Fun. Enjoy WoF for the rest of the evening. August 7th: WoF all day, probably Oceans of Fun too. August 8th: WoF in the morning then head down to Branson. Enjoy Branson the rest of the day. August 9th and 10th: All day at Silver Dollar City (the highlight of the trip to me) August 11th: Long day. Drive to St. Louis. Enjoy SFSL for a little while. Drive part of the way to Holiday World. Stopping for the evening in Mount Vernon Illinois. August 12th: Finish drive to HW and enjoy the park all day. August 13th: Drive to Kentucky Kingdom. Enjoy the park the remainder of the day with the awesome out of state discount. Drive to Kings Island after. August 14th: Kings Island all day then return home. It is quite the trip but there's a lot of credits and awesome coasters to ride! I will try to post a trip report from each park each day when we return to the park including some pictures. The parks all have relatively early closing times so typing up a report before bed shouldn't be too hard.

I remember doing this at KI a couple years ago but I would call the park just to be sure.

Great update! Got me a little more excited for our trip to Missouri next week.

If the park is still open till 11 that night then it will likely be very busy. But with Bill's approach a couple posts up, you should be able to do the whole park no problem.

I never thought I'd see a meh review of LR... can't say I agree with you but to each his own.

My fault. I meant a set of Larson flyers. Should've specified.

Do they have flying aces? If not, that gets my vote.

Holy sh*t... I wish I hadn't watched that.

We are thinking about taking a trip to universal next year and with all the Potter stuff they have and that they're adding, I have to ask; Having never read or seen any of the Potter books or movies will I still be able to follow along with and enjoy the Potter themed rides?

God I love your trip reports. Can't wait to keep reading.

Enjoying the report so far. Can't wait to see the rest!

With my very limited experience at the park, I would say that the park will be very crowded but ride lines will remain virtually nonexistent. I haven't been there since Invadr was built but I imagine that holds some bit of a line. Other than that you're probably looking at walk-ons. Maybe verbolten and tempesto will have lines of 10-15 minutes.

I didn't know Kings Dominion also announced the 16th as announcement day?

Here you go.

Lol I was NOT wearing that shirt but since I frequent the park I know of most of the creepy enthusiasts that go to the park. I wonder which one it was

I apologize if you already stated this but what days were you at CP? I remember being there on a day like the rainy one you described but I'm not sure if it was the same day because ya know... We get a lot of crappy rainy days like that.

Lol just kindly ask for a specific row and they'll give it to you most of the time.

Yes, Jim Reid Anderson has a magaical powder that will cure all the operational issues chain wide. But wait! Call now and order a season pass and your home park will receive for the 2018 season a RMC giga aquatrax. Dude, you're wrong. Everybody knows that the RMC Giga Aquatrax is coming in the 2019 season. I think it's opening this year

Here we go.

Lol you can never count on LR.

This picture... Wow. I think I have a new screensaver. Thank you TPR lol.
