sfkk339 Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 After 2 hours of driving we finally made it! Ah yes. I started my day with a nice bumpy ride on The Beast. What the Hell! 3 hour wait! Yes there where only running 2 trains.... Where are all the trains? Much Better! One of KI's many game rooms. Now it's time to ride "Waste of space:The Ride"! They are having way to much fun... yay! Time for Firehawk! Loop de loop! picture everyone seems to have. Flight of Fear had a huge line today so I didn't wait... The classic Racers where next on my checklist... and yes they where racing... There some extreme airtime going on here! way to addicting... Classic. KI had a great lineup of shows today! USA! USA! USA! Diamondback work has really been going fast! looks like the splashdown is next! Overveiw. OMG! ATTACK OF THE PUMPKIN KIDS! next update in a few!
sfkk339 Posted August 31, 2008 Author Posted August 31, 2008 Next it was time for Flashback tatally 80's! Carmen! It was a really great show, they sang and danced to all the great hits of the 80's and really got the crowd into it! next it was time to eat lunch in the International restaurant rarely seen by the public. nice view of the main dinning room. They had old newspaper clipings and pictures hanging on the walls to take you back in time. King Cobra sign! so sad : ( lies! not for me... Vekoma! Smooth... Yay Flight Deck! woosh! Brake Swinging! Awww someone broke Vortex. Noted! Fountian shot! After veiwing the fireworks from the International Resturaunt and our 30min ERT on The Beast it was time to go home. The park was nothing less the excellent! Cedar Fair seems like they will do well with KI in coming years. Ill miss you KI...
Electerik Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Thanks for the report! Forgive my ignorance, but why is that restaurant rarely seen by the pubic? What's the deal with it?
STR8FXXXINEDGE Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 ^ I don't know the answer to your question, but I do know that I have been to the park many times and never even knew it was there. Maybe that's the reason?
sfkk339 Posted August 31, 2008 Author Posted August 31, 2008 They closed it years ago and is only open for a special event...
Luka Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Awesome TR, thanks! It's to bad you couldn't ride them all
BuschSchoe Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Cool photos! The entrance to Kings Dominion seems to have alot more trees than Kings Island.
mike541x Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Cool photos!The entrance to Kings Dominion seems to have alot more trees than Kings Island. I've noticed that too. But KI looks awesome. Diamondback looks like it's going to be great. Nice Photos.
kraken613 Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 I cant wait for Diamondback! Its going to be HUGE! Nice TR!
Patchmanw Posted August 31, 2008 Posted August 31, 2008 Great trip report! The park looks very beautiful and it makes me want to go on a road trip and experience the park. I loved the look of that restaurant, it seems very nice.
jamesdillaman Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 Was that a reunion for former employees? If so, then poop on them for not inviting me! I see how it is, I've been seeing other parks, and KI just can't get over her jealousy... So childish... -James Dillaman
cinciDAWGS12 Posted September 1, 2008 Posted September 1, 2008 Cool photos!The entrance to Kings Dominion seems to have alot more trees than Kings Island. I think King's Island wanted the fountain to be the showcase of the entrance rather than trees. Great trip report!
DBru Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Great PTR! How was Firehawk's line this season?
PKI Jizzman Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Great Photo TR! How was Firehawk's line this season? Usually 35-45 minutes all day, every day.
sfkk339 Posted September 16, 2008 Author Posted September 16, 2008 That day I waited 2.5 hours to ride Firehawk, but still worth it.
