So I decided to return to KI today. This time, my mom insisted she wanted to join.

By the time we arrived to the park at nearly 9:30am this morning, she basically cut me loose to do my own thing. I found and met up with Adam (pkiboy)at Diamondback for ERT. In some ways.... we never left the ride for almost an entire half hour. One thing I notice bout Diamondback.. I ALWAYS get wet when sitting in the last cars. Every. Single. Time. ... Anyone else get wet everytime? (without reaching behind the seat with your hand in the water )

We heard the tail end of the Star Spangled banner and knew the school kids were gonna be running towards Dback, but seeing as the station was still for the most empty... we squeezed one last ride before we went off to The Beast.

I am not the type of person that will holler about trim breaks and such on coasters, only one coaster comes to mind where I think some are somewhat unneeded and thats Mean Streak's drop of doom. But The Beast? I feel like ending been dulled down a little bit as your thundering back towards the station.

How's Crypt? I purposely been keeping my distance from it ><

After Beast we went to Boo Blasters.. my first time on it since the change. I actually found it fun Adam beat my guts with the points, I literally spent most of the ride looking round rather than participating. I would like to see this ride well kept.. :\

I think after Boo Blasters we went towards Action Zone, did we Adam? nevermind yeah we did. We headed straight to Flight Deck, noticed on our way to FD people kept referring to Son of Beast as "Beast" =___= I understand to keep from confusing the people about SOB, but I think there is more confusion that way. 9____6

Flight Deck, I do get defensive for Short, sweet and straight to the point, is it not? After we left Flight Deck, we were joined by another enthusiast, don't remember his name But the 3 of us were off to Adventure Express.. my first ride of the season. I LOVE the lava bowl, aha. I don't think I ever seen it work like that before, although I never ridden AE till about 1995 anyway.

I think we went on Vortex after that.. my head hurts. Thanks Vortex.

...back to Diamondback. That had to have been the most shakiest ride I ever had on Dback >< Good grief that rattling. After that go round on Dback I told Adam I had to meet up with my mom for lunch, so we went our separate ways. After his departure me and mom had lunch, checked out Snoopy Boutique, and went on Boo Blasters, BLSC, and Congo falls. haha, she got more wet than I did, cause I leaned forward XP

Didn't take as many pictures as I normally would have, but there were some.

Sounds like an awesome day. I was there, but in Planet Snoopy with my 4 year old cousin.
