Squeezed in 2 1/2 hours this morning for Kings Island, took 112 pictures. Yea, I love taken them pics.

DSC00365.jpg

I got to the Island Shortly after 11 am. It was nice seeing this skyline again.

DSC00367.jpg

I noticed this and I realized, it was Fall already! Before you know it Christmas will be rolling Around!

DSC00368.jpg

Catwalks and Track and Supports. All the necessities for an Awesome B&M Hyper! ;)

DSC00369.jpg

Well Terpy, they aren't cranes, but they're close!

DSC00370.jpg

The park wasn't very packed but the security lines were long, as usual.

DSC00371.jpg

3 popular things.

DSC00372.jpg

This is my favorite part of the Park.

DSC00373.jpg

Even when you're a rock-star there are limits. These guys crossed it.

DSC00374.jpg

Viking Fury was still closed.

DSC00375.jpg

Wonder what they sell here :rolleyes:..........

DSC00376.jpg

The Son of Beast is a very photogenic ride.

DSC00377.jpg

AE First!

DSC00378.jpg

Don't know why I took this pic......

DSC00379-1.jpg

Short Lines, fun Ride, yea, it's awesome!

DSC00380.jpg

There's the Coney Maul! I was looking for it last week....

DSC00381.jpg

It's The Racer Time!

DSC00382.jpg

The Blue side was closed again.

DSC00383.jpg

How many of you look back once you get to in the station, honestly?

DSC00384.jpg

It took me a 3-train wait, but I finally got to the Second Row of the First Car! And how was the ride?

DSC00385.jpg

Just smooth, fast, full of airtime and totally AWESOME! The Racer Delivers Again!

What ride is this from?

DSC00387.jpg

Let's Check out X-Base!

DSC00388.jpg

Flight of Fear had a long line....

DSC00389.jpg

....And so did Firehawk. I was depressed. :(

DSC00390.jpg

So I guess the next thing up is Vortex!

DSC00391-1.jpg

My last ride on The Vortex was pretty painful, but you gotta hop right back on the horse!

DSC00392-1.jpg

I wonder what this pic would look like if I took it 26 Years ago. This?

DSC00393-1.jpg

This ride was much smoother, very forceful and intense.

DSC00394.jpg

Thank You, Thank You Very Much. B)

DSC00395-1.jpg

When I was younger I used to call this the "Smiley Face". The loops are the eyes, the corkscrew is the nose, and the dip between the loops is the mouth.

DSC00396-1.jpg

This is huge. HUGE!

DSC00397-1.jpg

Oh My Gosh......

DSC00398-1.jpg

....He Was A KI Employee!

DSC00399-1.jpg

Catwalks, bars, and a piece of track.

DSC00400-1.jpg

Pictures hardly do justice to the size of this!

DSC00401-1.jpg

Massive.

DSC00402-1.jpg

The Crypt was open Today!

DSC00403-1.jpg

Cool. B)

DSC00404-1.jpg

Guys, please quit whining about the Crypt's theme. I think it's just fine! :)

DSC00405.jpg

I got a walk on! I got a Walk On!

The first time I rode this at the beginning of the year it was pretty fun, now it's super intense! It's like that with every ride! Maybe there's just something wrong with me.

DSC00408-1.jpg

Diamondback Time!

DSC00409-1.jpg

Looks Like they're gonna put up more track soon.

DSC00410-1.jpg

:wub:

DSC00411.jpg

Words can not describe the absolute beauty of Diamondback.

DSC00412-1.jpg

I knew the Crypt's Exit would be full of Photo op's.

DSC00413-1.jpg

This bunny hill gives you a very good idea of how this is going to fly over the midway.

DSC00414-1.jpg

I love this ride, and it's not even finished.

DSC00415-1.jpg

This is gonna pull G's!

DSC00416-1.jpg

Hill after beautiful hill.

DSC00417-1.jpg

:wub: :wub: :wub:

DSC00418-1.jpg

The Drop isn't even halfway done yet!

DSC00420-1.jpg

I'm in love.

DSC00421-1.jpg

Point of Refrence Shot. That little white dot at the bottom is me, standing 5' 7".

DSC00422-1.jpg

I love Diamondback.

DSC00423-1.jpg

Sweet.

DSC00424-1.jpg

Am I becoming kinda Preachy?

DSC00425-1.jpg

Well, let's take a brake and ride The Beast!

DSC00426-1.jpg

Sorry, I can't help it!

That's me with my Hands up.

DSC00429-1.jpg

Slowly climbing the lift....

DSC00430-1.jpg

Almost there....Getting Close....

DSC00432-1.jpg

And we're back!

DSC00433-1.jpg

My how I love The Beast. It was sweet.

DSC00434-1.jpg

Get Loopy!

DSC00435-1.jpg

The RCT turn.

DSC00436-1.jpg

It's a Boomerang! :lol:

DSC00437-1.jpg

Hey, when you're doomed to eternity you gotta entertain yourself!

DSC00438-1.jpg

Jeeze, come on Werewolves! Vampires aren't THAT good!

DSC00439-1.jpg

The Best Waterboy in the league.

DSC00440-1.jpg

It's the Construction Site!

DSC00441-1.jpg

Massacour (sp?) Manor.

DSC00442-1.jpg

Why don't I have any desire to ride ride Drop Tower anymore?

DSC00443-1.jpg

It's the Swing thing.

DSC00444-1.jpg

Waste Land.

DSC00445-1.jpg

It's not a dump, it's a Toxic dump!

DSC00446-1.jpg

Don't know what the ball things are.

DSC00447-1.jpg

See kids? That's what Radio Activity will do to you. So when someone offers you toxic waste, just say no.

DSC00448-1.jpg

Cool.

Continued after a terrible round of Golf ;).......

OK just in case you forgot we were touring Action Zone...

DSC00449-1.jpg

Club Blood. Where Electric Chairs, bloody doctors, and condoms thrive.

DSC00450-1.jpg

But who cares about that? There's riding to to do!

DSC00451-1.jpg

Ehh, when the Front seat's to long, go for the next best thing. 1-2.

DSC00452-1.jpg

Lack of Themeing? Oh Contrare! I bet that they themed this to look like a hanger of some sort! Maybe. :unsure:

DSC00453-1.jpg

For all those wondering what the green wristband is it's a band for the "Be The Change" anti-bully program at my school.

DSC00454-1.jpg

Well as usual Flight Deck gave an amazing ride. There's some nice terrain back there if they were to add another 1,000 or so feet it would be Awesome!

DSC00455-1.jpg

I still don't know why I don't want to ride Drop Tower anymore!? Xtreme Skyflyer though was great!

DSC00456-2.jpg

I still think this should be burned and replaced with an Intamin Plug-And-Play.

DSC00457-1.jpg

Believe it or not this is probably as nerve racking as Drop Tower's climb!

DSC00458-1.jpg

Puny Humans! Your toxic waste is ours! Ha ha ha ha ha!

(you can have it)

DSC00459-1.jpg

Action Zone is a very photogenic area.

DSC00460-1.jpg

Where did you get your license? Planet X? :D

DSC00461-1.jpg

Wow. So long they've died and still not a bite.

DSC00462-1.jpg

LAME.

DSC00463-1.jpg

Siamise Twins. Imagine how their social life is. (A 2-for-1 Deal as far as dating!)

DSC00464-1.jpg

Gosh that must SUCK having a tail.

DSC00465-1.jpg

My CSI Guess: Those Faulty 1950's doors malfunctioned and they were trapped. I'm glad they didn't resort to cannibalism.

DSC00466-1.jpg

Before we leave I wanted to get one more Beast Fix.

DSC00467-1.jpg

Diamondback is really just going to tower over everything.

DSC00468-1.jpg

Beast+Front Seat+Me=OMFG :):D !!!!!!! Sweet Awesomeness.

I want to ride soooooooooooo bad!

DSC00470-1.jpg

So huge......

DSC00471-1.jpg

I love going to Amusement Parks in the Fall. It's mild, the leaves are turning, it's usually overcast, just beautiful.

DSC00472-1.jpg

I was never a Bearcats Fan. XU more like.

DSC00473-1.jpg

I have to admit, Kings Island went out of their way to make Halloween Haunt simply great as far as Haunts go. To bad I hate Halloween.

DSC00474-1.jpg

I just feel at home at KI. Absolutely Breathtaking.

DSC00475-1.jpg

You know the saying, "If you can't do the time don't do the crime"? Well, in this case, it's more like, "If you can't escape without dying don't even try". :)

DSC00476-1.jpg

OK I just had to have it.

DSC00477-1.jpg

I mean really! Sweet!

DSC00478-1.jpg

I just love Kings Island. :wub:

DSC00479-1.jpg

I told you I ALWAYS take this pic at KI.

DSC00480-1.jpg

So Long!

Thanks For Reading!

Wow great pictures!!! Yes you are right the pictures can not possibly show the true size of diamond back but you sure did a great job of it!! I was there Friday and Saturday for haunt and I was simply amazed at the size and how long it is going to me. Seemed like there were parts of it all over!!!

I was in total awe at the huge piece of track sticking up over by the Crypt. You're right, pictures do not do it justice.

Great photos by the way, I saved a couple of the photos of DB because I really like them!

I've been known for taking good pics. I guess it's a natural Talent, I never even try!
