Wednesday morning, 5/27

So now that I live in Cincinnati again, I can make quick trips to the park at last!

I went up from 9:30 to noon this morning, and had an AMAZING time! The park was dead .

I started off with Diamondback ERT. I had 7 laps in by the time the general public got there, and then I rode it once more. I'm noticing that more people are catching on to the SRL.

Then for the next few hours I just headed around the park, hitting everything I wanted. The only ride I actually had to wait for was Firehawk, which reminded me why I hate that thing so much. There might have been 150 people in that line, but it took about 25 minutes to get through the line and ride it. Dispatch intervals are atrocious.

Ride count:

Diamondback: 8

Beast: 1

BLSC: 1

Vortex: 1

FoF: 1

Firehawk: 1

Racer: 1

AE: 1

Drop Tower: 1

Invertigo: 1

That's a terrific ride count for a 2.5 hour trip! It's nice to see someone else was marathoning DB yesterday. By the time I got there at 6:10 there was a five minute wait, and by 7:15 you only had to wait for the first two and last two rows on most rides. Good times!

It's interesting to hear you mention the wait for Firehawk. I was standing in line thinking the same thing, the crowds aren't there (Vortex I saw running multiple trains where only the first row was loaded) and this would be a great time to get on Firehawk, so I'm glad I didn't in the end. If it was a Saturday morning and you're waiting 25 minutes it's one thing, but it's excruciating when the rest of the park is a ghost town!
