PhantomTheaterKiss Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I have had this done for several days but didn't post it for some reason. PTR Friday 08/02/13 Husband and I were lucky enough to be able to leave our house Thursday night and head up to my parents house; this was fortunate because it allowed us to hit up ERT for the first time this season. We hit up DB (2nd row) and then over to The Beast for x2 ride (random middle seat that was empty). From there, we trekked over to Vortex and enjoyed a ride at 7-1 and then 5-1. My head was a little banged up after 7-1 but nothing major and it was kind of my own fault (definitely unintentionally punched myself in the face at the MCBR). Quick question… Anyone else find it hard to figure out what to do with your hands on The Vortex? My husband laughs at me every time because the handles are uncomfortable and nothing seems right. From Vortex, we headed up into Coney Mall for a pretzel and water. After the little rest we hit up FoF . The wait was about 25-30 minutes but the young kids on both sides of us were hilarious so it went quick. I absolutely love front row FoF, great fun! At this point, we make a solid game plan because we had to leave the park early to head home (3+ hours) for an event early Saturday. We decided blue Racer, DB again, lunch, then a couple flats and back home. Blue Racer and DB happened, we hit HOF grill for lunch (2nd time we have eaten there this season). We sat at the bar, enjoyed our food and a beer. While eating husband gets a message that Saturdays event was moved to Sunday. So we ordered up another beer, and the bartender informed us that we were able to take our beers out if we wanted, and we did just that. We wandered a little bit and decided to hit up DB again, we both had about ½ glass of beer left and the attendant at DB’s line informed us that we are not allowed to bring alcohol into the line. New policy of no alcohol in line … anyone willing to explain why? Just curious. Anways, we sat down and people watched for awhile then hit up DB again, and The Beast again then wandered towards AZ. Got in line for Delirium and right as we got settled they announced it was down for maintenance issues. Well then, we shall check out construction and then off to Flight Deck, x2 on that. Back to Delirium, on to Viking Fury, and a stop at Biergarten for some water and watching fishys. Husband checked out the line for Invertigo and we decided it was not worth the wait. By this time it is about 3:30 and getting busier. We wander to the fountains and discuss what we want to do. Husband admitted his back was acting up, so we decide to grab some fudge and call it an early day. We missed a couple good rides but still had a good ride count and it was a great day! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
