ZosoBeast Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 Right to the point, I was pretty shocked that the park wasn't as busy as I thought it would be! Last years BAFFD on Mothers day was a mad house compered to todays! I mean, today was crazy, but it wasn't crazy go nuts! The 6th visit for me this year and the FIRST visit of the year that I took someone along! My 6 year old, Ashley. A change from past BAFFD is that you no longer go to the "will call" section windows to get your free ticket, it is now punched into the computer when you get your card scanned when entering the park. Your friend must be RIGHT behind you! Piece of cake! We got there at 8:45 this morning. Checked in and went right into the HBL early ride time for Gold Pass members. I wasn't to sure if they were going to let us in since my 6 year old didn't have a pass, but the lady took one look at my pass and let us right in! 3 rides on Reptar in a row, Ghoster Coaster, Beastie, Sky Tours and then we head for The Beast. DARN! just a HAIR short to ride for the 6 year old! NEXT year for sure! I took a solo ride after sending her to the cage. My 16th Beast ride of the season. Did the Eagles. Snapping like crazy. Ashley wanted me to stop since she thought I was going to break it! SRR, Zep and then we met a bunch of friends at the front of the park at 12:30. Then into the longest wait of the day. Drop Zone's line was about 1 hour+. 15min wait on Congo! First time I EVER had to wait for that ride. Face/off got stuck somewhere around this time. Racer, Skyline, Scrambler. Then the old fashion cars just in case! Then we split and we take the kids back to HBL. Taxi Jam, Helicopters, Bumper cars twice, Beasties twice, Reptar twice and then thornberrys. A view from the tower and we were out the door. Today also happened to be my birthday and I could not have picked a better place to go! Got there at 8:45 and left at 9. Made for a long, but fun day at the park. Ashley had a blast! Sorry this is kinda short. Tired, want to goto bed. Had to share this with you all first. Pictures, as always, can be found at my website listed below. This batch will be kinda boring to you all since there is a lot of friend shots in them. But your still welcomed to view them! http://www.waitingtoprint.com Thanks for reading!! Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 That's great that you had a good time at the park! It's a shame that your daughter is just a little too short to ride The Beast... I believe it's Browngrrl that has in her signature that her parents stuffed kleenex into her socks to make her tall enough... ever considered that? I think your pics are really neat too. I especially like the one of Delirium from BAFF day. Keep shootin'! Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs. G. Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Thanks for the great TR! We stuffed my kid's shoes with toilet paper when she was that last hair short but both my kids are on the short side so she was 8 at the time, the older one didn't make it until she was 9. You never forget your first Beast ride with your kid! Again, great report. That's the kind of day PKI is all about for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
