Wednesday June 11th!

So we arrived at the park around 10:30 and I went straight to get my season pass processed. It was a short little wait and the process went by pretty fast. We get into the park and we went straight to TTD, the wait was about 1 hour and it broke down for about 15 minutes while in line but the ride ops and mechanics seemed to get it back up and running pretty quickly. Finally got on and it was a great ride like always. Seemed more intense than usual for some reason. I also noticed the speedometer was taken down. Maybe it's getting fixed who knows. Next up was Magnum and the line was at the bottom of the stairs, we sat in the middle and had a great ride. Then we went to Witches Wheel and got pretty sick afterwards so we went to Chick-Fil-A for lunch. I paid about 11 dollars for a chicken sandwich, waffle fries, and a bottled water. The meal was pretty good and I especially loved the waffle fries.

So after lunch my one friend and I went to Thunder Canyon and rode that while the other two rode Skyhawk. TC was really fun and refreshing. After that we all headed for Maverick which was about an hour and a half wait. It was a lot of fun, but two of the people in our group had never ridden and they thought it was alright. They said the restraints killed the ride. After that my one friend and I sat and drank pop while the other two took a ride on Gemini. Then after that we took a ride on Paddlewheel which was a fun ride as always. Next we went over to Corkscrew and the crew was really moving fast. Props to Sarah (I believe her name was) who really kept the ride going. Next up was Power Tower green side. Right after I get off the ride I barf right at the exit. It was embarassing and kind of surprising because I thought I could handle PT. I guess not now. So after getting sick on Witches Wheel and PT I pretty much know now not to ride anything but coasters and a few other when I go to CP. So next up two of the people in my group wanted to ride Skyscraper and that was an N-O for me so I didn't ride especially after my experience on Witches Wheel and PT. They got the Skyscraper Special which was 2 people for $20. They really loved it. I can't believe how long they stop you at the top for. That would be pretty scary.

So after Skyscraper we head to dinner at Game Day Grille. I got Nachos and they were really good. My other two friends got sandwiches and the waitress said they can't have tomatoes on them because of ecoli in the local area I guess. So she brings out their sandwiches and they have tomatoes on them! So we tell her and she bashes the people in the kitchen and brings us a new meal. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food and there was four of us and the total was like $40 something. Food was pretty good all day and service was good except at the pretzel hut or whatever when we wanted just two cups of water, the line was moving very very slow. I really like the free cup of water deal. Also I had no complaints about the bathrooms, because they were actually pretty clean. So I did not want to get sick (again) after eating my nachos after dinner so I kind of just sat out WT, Raptor, and MaXair while they rode. We did finish the day off though with the Cadillacs and then we left. It was a semi crowded day but wasn't too bad. We also saw Chauncy Billups from the Detroit Pistons getting off the Antique Cars in Frontier Town. Even though I really didn't get that great of a ride count I still had fun and kind of shrugged it off because I knew I would be going back again this summer. Thank you CP for another great day!

I love to sit and drink pop too.

Drink all day and your teeth will decay.

Oh yeah that stinks that the Maverick had a 1.5 hour wait on a Wednesday here. It seems the crowds are in full swing would you say?

^ We were there yesterday, and yes the crowds are definately in full swing. 1 1/2 hour wait for Raptor. About the same for Millenium. I thought going on a Thursday, it would be slow. But not at all. :( So good luck going on Saturday! Atleast you will have CP till Midnight though.

Cpboy, sorry you got sick. That must have sucked. :( We were about to ride MF yesterday (on the blue train), in the seats and everything and we were told to get off. I am not sure why. But then the yellow train pulls up. Me and my sis think that that one is really rough for some reason, so we were trying to let someone else go on before us. But then we rode the red train anyway (which is my fav), because someone puked in one of the seats on the yellow train. They said that that happens at least twice a day on MF. So don't worry, you arn't the only one. :)

And I agree with you about Sky Scraper. Although I love coasters, I am deathly afraid of heights. I could NOT sit up there on Sky Scraper at the top for that long. I think that I would rather do Rip Cord, than Sky Scraper. lol.

Wellll that just blows. Looks like our first couple of trips will be the "golden ones" for this year unless we get lucky...IN KENTUCKY!

Only time I've been to the park with those kinda waits, was in late July one year. Park closed at 11pm but wow, this was when TTD first opened so it was a long 2 and a half hours.

I have been on a ride just like skyscraper, down in Gatlinburg TN. I rode it at night so it was neat to stop at the top and look around at all the lights around the area. I just don't think its worth 20 dollars for skyscraper.

Nice trip report CPBoy77.

I think I woud like Sky Scraper if I wasn't so afraid of heights.

Yes Factory81, the lines sucked! My last trip to CP was amazing because almost everything was walk ons. That's what we expected this time, because it was a Thursday. It felt more like a holiday with how long the lines were. The good news though is near the end of the night A LOT of people left, so the lines shorted up. Raptors 1 1/2 hour line turned into a 15 minute hour line. Millenium's shortened up pretty good too.
