I'm still 100% doing my MIA and CP trip next week. Still very likely to keep my MO trip as is.

I embark for Muskegon next Saturday for some Lake Michigan time and Michigan's Adventure on Sunday. Port Clinton on Monday, and CP will be Tuesday and Wednesday. I do intend to get to Muskegon and Port Clinton early as there are spots I want to spend a good amount of time at for both. I'm praying Shivering Timbers is at least marginally better than my last visit in 2023. I'm hoping its good enough to marathon. I do need to grab a ride on Zach's Zoomer at MIA in my quest for 200 coasters ridden. Looking a bit further ahead, I plan on heading to KK on the weekend after July 4th (Flying Fox is also wanted for me to get to 200).

I will say I liked a few of the individual set pieces, particularly the swords and the levitation bits.

The only other show I checked out besides Brad Ross was the show at the bandstand. My only gripe- please don't use male vocals for Spice Girls covers. Their rendition of Spice Up Your Life made me want to gag. It sounds so flat with a lack of upper alto/soprano voices. Blah.

It was moderate today and it was hauling.

Is it just me or is Mystic Timbers running fast this year?

The more I've ridden this, the more the lack of music disappoints me.

I think the show is simple but good. Liked the use of music and choreography. Dialog felt a little too well rehearsed though. I do have Ed Elonzo in my head and his use of ad lib helped a lot.

Eating at Juke Box for the first time in a long time. The inside smells wonderful and the burger is decent. Might have to try the melt and the Caesar salad, both those look great.

Has the park been lacking in music in the morning lately? It is eerily quiet this morning (6/1)

So I have a question regarding the Enchanted parks... I am old school and still use a physical pass. Should I bring anything else for admission, specifically for MIA, SFStL, and WoF? I kept the printout of my pass purchase confirmation JIC.

I almost went despite the rain, but then I saw the forecast and Cincinnati is practically un-drivable right now.

Upon looks, I'm very impressed with the new coaster. For its footprint, it has a good amount of path interaction and its got a pretty good length for what it is. I'm excited to try it this summer.

I'm glad they went with different because we'd probably not have Beast if they kept it safe.

Night ERT events and midnight closes would be nice again.
