Sir Clinksalot Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 The coaster season is close to being in full swing, and all parks are almost open. Anybody have any trips planned? For us this is the only weekend we don't have anything planned. Next weekend I think we are going to go to Hurricane Harbor for opening weekend. (weather permitting) The following weekend we are going to go to LegoLand to use our passes one last time before they expire and go to the AP preview for the new RoboCoaster attraction. And then probably to Disney on Sunday to check out the 50th stuff. The following weekend is Elissa's Special Olympics thing. And we are throwing a party for a friend of mine at work who is moving to Ohio. And then on Memorial Weekend we will be up in the Bay area. Our original plan was to do PGA on Thursday, SFMW Friday, San Francisco Stuff on Saturday and Bonfante/SCBB on Sunday. Well, turns out PGA isn't open until Saturday so we will have to brave the crowds. UGH!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coasters 4 ever Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 I might be going to Dorney Park near the middle or end of the month. If I don't go this month I'll be going in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Clinksalot Posted May 1, 2005 Author Share Posted May 1, 2005 Due to work concerns, we've had to cancel any major trips we had planned this summer (our contract is up for renewal this year, and if we lose the contract, burning through a few grand on summer vacations is going to really come back and bite us in the bum). Our initial summer was going to have Cedar Point, Geauga Park, King's Dominion, and Busch Gardens Williamsburg in it, but, alas, it's not gonna happen. The one trip we haven't cancelled ('cause we can't) is a trip to Atlanta in three weeks. A friend's getting married (at the Atlanta Renaissance Fair - yeah, I know), so while we're there we're going to hit up Six Flags Over Georgia (and catch a Nine Inch Nails concert). I'm going to go ahead and get a Season Pass, since we'll be back in Atlanta at the end of the summer for a geek-convention (Dragon-Con - where else can you see Stormtroopers wandering the streets?). Apart from that and a possible journey up to (ugh) Carowinds, looks like it's going to be a slow, slow summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Taking our boat up to the Cedar Point Marina and spending Saturday / Sunday at the park. Then Im going to go Mon-Tues (maybe subtract one of those days and go Wed depending on weather) during the morning/day to take advantage of my work scheduale and no one being at the park.

Scaparri Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Well, I'm headin' up to Cedar Point next Sunday for the summer so that is an obvious one. I might try and go to Fun Spot on one of my days off, but most of my time off is going to be dedicated to going to practice and qualifications (and the race of course) for the Indy 500.

Coaster Palooza Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 Our big trip for the month is out to Cedar Point along with other parks. We leave on May 21st for Detroit where we go to Hard Rock Cafe and take in a Tiger's game (do ballparks count as parks ?) Michigan's Adventure is next for a couple days (Satuday night and Sunday). We leave for Cedar Point Monday afternoon, hopefully we get there for a night ride on Millenium, or TTD! On Thursday we leave for Cleveland to take in an Indians game, Rock 'n Roll HoF, and Hard Rock Cafe. We stay at Geauga Lake on Thursday night and go there on Friday! Saturday we're back to Detroit to visit family and go home Sunday 5/30. Memorial day we are back home in San Jose. That's our trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted May 2, 2005 Share Posted May 2, 2005 The only thing we want to do for sure this month is a visit to Knoebel's. If Hydra is open, we'll also stop at Dorney on our way to Philadelphia to see Porcupine Tree and get our credit. Other than that, it's pretty much a park-free schedule for us until Europe... dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
