1st Summer Trip

(*I felt that this forum wanted a new topic, so if you don't want to read my ramblings, don't hesitate to go back to where you came from.)

My friends and I usually only get to CP once or twice a summer, even though we live just over three hours away.

This summer's trip had some memorable moments!

1. Eating at Johnny Rocket's for lunch, mmm.

2. Eating at Johnny Rocket's for dinner because my friend thought the waiter was hot.

3. Last ride on the Millennium Force, kicking a pop bottle through the entire queue to pass time -- strangers joined in the festivities.

4. 14 hours of walking + very little water + 3.5 hour car ride home = interesting trip home. I am laying across two friends in the backseat, RENT blaring through the speakers, when all of a sudden, I SCREAM because I begin to have crazy LEG CRAMPS. And then when I finally fall asleep, I manage to keep rolling the window down with my head, much to the annoyance of my friends.

5. Mmm on the way home we stopped at some big like travel center place. (Maybe some locals know of it?) But they sold crazy good Cinnamon Rolls. . . nothing better than Cinnamon Rolls and Coffee at 3 AM.

6. Ooh, the Live E show with the fun rain effect. . .that was a highlight. Very enjoyable.

7. Riding Wicked Twister for the first time was great! We all really enjoyed it, and it must have been a good day with no breakdowns.

8. Hehe we kept getting in trouble at the train-track crossing places, because our feet were not behind the bricks. :(

9. Oh and who could forget my favorite, going on Iron Dragon and seeing genteel Amy Salyers! Also, my friend and I rode this with our eyes closed the whole time, and that is very fun/relaxing! (Except when it stops abruptly on the "lift.")

10. And of course, seeing the "Cedar Point is Building for the Future" sign was a memory.

Cedar Point has always been a highlight of my summers growing up. Hopefully this summer, I will be working there and stocking up on memories! But no matter what, I will always remember the fun times had with friends.

I went to the point on halloweekends, a week before closing day. It was kind of cold, but I had a great time. I was one of the last people to ride MF that day, and I got the very front seat. Part of TTD was built, and I remember hoping for it to be 400ft tall. It was one of the best trips of 2002( I have a season pass). I can't wait til may 4!!!!

I saw a commercial that had bumper cars in it. . .and it triggered a memory of something else we did at CP this summer!

We all went on the bumper cars. . .there were like 4 of us.

Well, I am a baby, and I told my friends not to hit me. And, my friend Drew had the brilliant idea to 'gang up' on one person. So, all four of us would signal each other, pick one stranger, and just blast the heck out of him/her. It was very fun. Usually we would pick someone hot :) hehe. Those were the days.

this summer was my first time at CP and the first ride i rode was Mantis....we got half way up the lift and some idiot unbuckeled his seat so the they to stall the ride for a minute or so after getting off that we headed toward power tower....at that time i was a lttle scared to go on pt...but after i took the plunge i rode it 14 times in one day..(thats both towers)....hardly a line it was great...then we go in line for MF right before they shut the line off for the night and we were the next to last train. We arrived at the station and everyone on the train wouldnt get up and we were all chanting for another ride...but that didnt happen..it was great..
