September 18

I went to the Point with my soccer team yesterday. We arrived at about 11 a.m. I decided not to throw in the "Soak City Lot, less crowds" speech, as we were confused as to where we had to park in the main lot, let alone the SC lot.

As soon as we hit the park, 16 of my team went to Disaster Transport, but my 3 other friends went with me to literally sprint to Raptor, which had a 25-minute wait at the time.

Went to Mantis to get a Freepass for 3:00, and rode Corkscrew 5 times and Iron Dragon twice to kill time in a "productive" way.. :)

Mantis was awesome. One of the many firsts of the day, including Maggie (thanks for the earlier picture tips, got a great pose!). After Mantis, I ran into a lot of gates, though, as my legs were almost numb...

The only coasters I didn't go on (that were operating) were TTD and the Force. What surprised me was that all the coasters I went on never exceeded a half-hour wait! Must have been hitting each one at the perfect time... :)

Also, if any ride op saw me, I was wearing a "3 Things to Remember At A Theme Park" t-shirt.

And a good time was had by all...

Thats good you got to go and it sounds like you had fun *** Edited 9/19/2004 11:23:57 PM UTC by Cedar Chick04***

including Maggie (thanks for the earlier picture tips, got a great pose!).

Glad to help out. Maybe it was a good thing after all that I know waaayyy too much about pictures on the Magnum! :)

In the pic, I'm giving the thumbs-up and my friend (who we call Shorty for a reason) was blocked from view by someone's hand... :)
