  1. I still have to agree with standbyme! I NEVER meant my statement to be construed as I hated the American flag (sigh). I suggested a better spot would be on top of the International Restaurant which would give the flags a prominent view even from the parking lot. You might not agree with that certain idea. Which is absolutely fine.

  2. I was on the train (KI&MV) and I was watching your train (Diamondback) while we traveled underneath the tracks. I saw your train go up to the MCBR and suddenly stop. I said out loud, "Oh, man." A woman near me asked me if that is suppose to happen. I told her no, but I got to explain to her the default position for brakes on rollercoasters.

  3. However, do you ever have a caricature done of yourself or someone in your family?

    Yes. It was a caricature of my brother and I.

    Have your name made out of wood at the wood shop?

    Yep

    Do you ever play games in the arcade?

    Not all the time, but I have in the past.

    Have an antique photo done?

    No, but I would love to sometime

    Ride the Zephyr?

    Yep

  4. For me it would have to be Hurricane at the Myrtle Beach Pavilion (http://rcdb.com/595.htm). The first year it was rough but you could enjoy it. However, in its last years, it was unbearable. With SOB, in my opinion, the rosebowl is the worst part, but after you get past it you can enjoy the rest of the ride. However, with the Hurricane, it was constant pain until you hit the brakes.

    I did love the placement of the coaster and the station. I always enjoyed getting off and looking down on the bustling and beautiful Ocean Boulevard.

  5. (By the way...nice new avatar!)

    Thanks! When I saw it come up on the on-ride photo screen I had to buy it.

    For those who went to KIC Day 2, you remember how extremely slow they were. Now they are enjoyable again!

  6. I know last year and the beginning of this year it was painfully slow. However, the last two times I have visited the park and rode Dodgems I have noticed an increase in speed. The last time I rode them (Aug. 8) I was bumped around pretty good.

    Has anyone else noticed this?

  7. I was in line for Adventure Express on Tuesday and the ride op was talking about how much she loved Adventure Express. She said it was her favorite because it was a great ride for all ages and that it is always awesome when you can ride with Grandma!! I laughed for quite a while.

    I would have to agree with the ride op. I love Adventure Express because it was the one roller coaster my mom would actually ride. She hated drops (ever since her first ride on KCKC when she was younger) and heights (she would close her eyes on the way up the lift), but since AE has a turning drop she enjoyed the ride. I always enjoyed riding with her.
