Let us know how your day at the park was.

I got there at about 1:30, and it was raining obviously. It stopped by the time I walked the fifteen miles from the dropoff to the park gates. Something interesting happened on the way. There was a kid with those shoes that have wheels. He was skating along, and he must of hit a rock or something. He flipped completely over and hit the ground and his parents ran over. I think he was OK though... I think.

I went straight to Hulk and got on the front row in about five minutes. Damn, it was flying today. I got off and back in line for a reride. Back row, no wait. It was an awesome ride, except for right after the cobra roll. I realized I forgot to take Dramamine and was like "aw hell naw". The ride was still enjoyable.

I walked over to Dr. Doom and got in line for what looked like it was going to be ten minutes. Then this ride op said "Single riders move to the front" and I was like "aw hell yeah". I got the seat that looks right out into the midway. Quite awesome. Reride in the same seat. Quite awesome indeed. It must have started raining again right after I got off, because it was pouring when I exited the ride. I ran over to Dueling Dragons hoping it would stay open. I figured that it's a B&M, it has to stay open. Boy was I wrong. I waited in the station for about a half an hour and the rain didn't stop. Somehow two hours had already elapsed, and it was time to leave. Damn.

Ride count:
Hulk - 2
Dr. Doom - 2
this is a signature

Nice TR. If the rain is really bad then they'll close down. Last year I went to sfgam and when we got there all the coasters were closed. We ended up getting on Rue Le Dodge 3 times and Wirligig once and then we left.
