My best friend, cousins, and I left my house at 830 and arrived at the park around 925. After we walked in, my cousin realized her son was too short to ride some of the rides. (He's 47 and 3/4 in.) She ended up waiting for me and my friend. We rode Diamondback 3 times in a row.(Rows 1,15, and 10) By the time we were done with that it was after 10 so I decided we should ride The Crypt. I had never ridden it before and probably won't for a while. It actually scared me. After that, we rode The Beast and had an extremely rough ride.

We then joined my cousin and her son in Nick U. We rode the Fairly Odd Coaster 3 times in a row. We then headed back to DB and got another row 1 ride. We again went back to Nick U and ended up riding the FOC again. Then we rode Avatar. It actually made me a little sick. The last thing we rode in Nick U was Reptar.

After a ride on the train it was time for lunch. We ate at LaRosa's in rivertown. I simply love their pizza. My cousins wanted to ride Viking Fury, so me and my friend rode A.E, Then I got outvoted and had to ride Wild Thornberry's. Got kinda wet so I decided we were going to dry off on Flight Deck. We then went up the Eiffel Tower and had a look around. After getting back to earth, we decided to leave. Not bad for a day when I expected rain.

Well, if your cousin goes again, have him/her have his/her son measured at Nickleodean. Towards the end of last year, my son was pushing 48" with shoes and socks. At the front entrance, he did not make it. At Nicleodean, he did. Same day, same shoes, same socks. I'd say there was about a 1/4 - 1/2" difference in the measurement.
