Hi ! I need help to plan my upcoming trip. My dates are from October 19th to 20th. Basically, I want to attend both Dorney Park and Hersheypark and I want to maximize my time ! Should I go to Hersheypark on friday night (open from 5pm to 10pm that night)... I heard it's not really crowded on fridays but I would like to ride all the rollercoasters at least once... is it too optimistic for a friday night or should I go on saturday instead ?, but Hersheypark only opens at 2pm on saturday... Dorney on friday is open from 6pm to midnight... I don't really care about the mazes, just the rides Which park will be the most crowded on saturday ? By the way, any other advice is welcome... it will be my first time at Dorney in 6 years, I don't remember much... I don't think I'll buy any of the "fastpass" system when I'll go to either park, I'm a student and I don't want to spend that kind of money... Thanks you for your help !!

La Ronde Discussion Thread
Skyscraper replied to Skyscraper's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was working at La Ronde yesterday when this happened. I wish I could tell you the facts and the story but I cannot tell you anything due to company policy and respect for his family. This was a really sad day yesterday at the park... My prayers goes to his family and friends. -

Morning traffic between Downtown L.A. and SFMM

Any great places for breakfast around SFMM ? Should I hit Green Lantern first or go to X2, Tatsu and then Green Lantern ? Thanks ! -
Morning traffic between Downtown L.A. and SFMM
Skyscraper replied to Skyscraper's topic in Ask Alvey
Thanks guys ! Well I think i'll leave the hotel around 8am ( I don't drive at 90! lol) and If i'm too early at SFMM, I'll just have a breakfast somewhere in Valencia... Can't wait to try Green Lantern and Terminator !! -
It's really a shame. In Ednör's previous life as Serial Thriller at Astroworld it was one of the smoothest SLCs around. Now, after the move, it is just downright brutal (although flying over the water with the mist and water cannons is pretty cool). Well last year when it opened, it ran pretty smoothly for an SLC but this year it's really terrible...I rode it back in may and it was rough as hell !

Hi ! I'm planning to visit SFMM on August 31st which is a wednesday. I'm sleeping at the Westin Bonaventure in Downtown L.A. and I was wondering how early should I leave the hotel to get to SFMM at about 10AM (30minutes before the opening)... Any idea how the traffic will be ? Thanks... Ohh... and I'm pretty sure it will be a low attendance day right ? Late august... Should I hit X2 and Tatsu first or Green lantern is so popular that it now needs to be the first ride of the day ? Thanks you very much !

If semeone is planning to ride Ednor on the first weekend but sure to get there early... the second train is actually broken and they will give a limited amount of tickets to ride it... -

LOL Elissa thanks you -
^ No... Six flags bought La Ronde from the city in Montreal. The park was supposed to invest 90 millions dollars in the first 5 years but they didn't and the city doesn't care at all since the city is facing more important issues. Only the land where La Ronde is located is still the property of Montreal but after 100 years after 2001, the land will be given to Six Flags.All rides and buildings are the property of Six Flags right now, only the land is not.

Hi ! The rumors were true, we are getting the used Vekoma SLC from Astroworld for 2010 ! This is really strange since La Ronde already has a B&M inverted, Le Vampire. I hope they bought new trains with the new lapbar style restraints. More pictures from Thrillzone La Ronde forum : thrillzone.invisionplus.net/?mforum=thrillzone&showtopic=931&st=150entry17401

Hi everyone! If my plane has no delay and there's no traffic on the road, I'll be able to go at Kings Dominion this friday only for 3 hours, between 5 and 8pm. I absolutely want to do Volcano and Flight of fear, what would be the best strategy ? Do you think the lines will be short on long on friday ? Any advice to get as much done as possible would be very appreciated ! Thanks you
