You'll be totally fine - when I parked at noon last Sunday, there were no lines for any of the slides. By the time we actually went to ride a few of them around 5pm, lines were longer (about 5-10 minutes for Bonzai, 15-20 minutes for Tornado) but nothing too bad! 5-10!for Bonzai. U were lucky that Sunday. Usually I get 15-25 on weekends.

If it's a nice day with no threat for rain, the lines can be long, especially the Bonzai Pipelines. Can u get at least one slide per slide by 5? Maybe, but you may need more time if you want to do 'every' slide (all 6 on Bonzai, all 4 on Zoomazon Falls, both sharks, etc). Too me, no slide over there should be missed. I like them all, and they never get old. Well, the one in the pool (lazy river pool) can be missed. I'm looking forward to your comments on Bonzai and the shark slides! Try your best not to let go of the tube In the reef runner. There are some turns in there where it feels like that you are going to go upside down, but will not! To get your best (more fun) ride on the big purple/green slide that sits 4 people, sit so you are going backwards; good times. Sucks carrying the raft up the stairs though. If you want to crap your pants, Tornado , Bonzai, and maybe the Orange shark slide is your poison Have a good time. I love the water park. I actually may be there Sunday too. If I were you I would do it first. When the park first opens, lines are not that bad for the first hour or so. One word of caution on Bonzai. I think it's the Orange slide that has some kind of ripple in the middle. You'll get a slight hit on the back of the head. It shouldn't hurt really, but it'll be a surprise. Also, 'HOLD' your nose closed! You'll see what I mean. Have fun watching people walk back down the stairs once they see people drop down the tubes.

July 4th was a fluke, mainly because they were threatening rain that day. I've visited the park more than I've ever had. To me, this is the best year in the last several. I honestly do not think the signage is good enough on the highways. You'd be surprised how many people do not know the park is there.

Not sure. I know they affix a number with each name. Let me know how it goes. I'll see how it goes. I read through the fine print and it doesn't specifically mention anything. I'll make sure we get our money's worth from SFA--we paid our money for these passes, we're going to use them. If I were you, I would go to the customer relations hut. The folks in the season pass place usually do not know the answers to those types of questions.

No debate here. Gotta do Wild One. 100th coaster on an almost 100 year coaster. Careful not to ride Bourbon Street Fireball as a warm-up or whatever..lol..they consider that a coaster; you'll then have to consider that your 100th . Now, u absolutely 'should' ride the fireball while you are there. IMO, it's an excellent ride!

Yeah, u r right. The park was quite crowded. I went in the late afternoon. They had two trains running on Apocalpse, which doesn't help me any. I don't know what they are thinking with these one train ops, especially on Wild One, Batwing, and Superman. Water park was crazy crowded too. You know, I do not remember the park being so jammed in previous years. Word must be getting out, eh? All the Trip Adviser and Google scores have gone up a few ticks. BTW, I like the fountain in the middle of the pathway.

It's open. I will not get mad ever again about a ride that I've never ridden. Bourbon is great! They have led lights on while it runs, even in the daylight. The only theming so far is the fire decoration on the top. If i can post photos, i will in this post. For some reason my phone is not acting right when trying to attach photos. You know, i just realized that i do not have a good pic of the ride. At the time, i was more excited about the paths, which I've used several times already. Path going to Mardi Path going to Gotham Path coming from Bourbon exit.
