Cedar Point Hallowscream

Well, we couldn't have picked a better day. Of course it was pretty much a weather hail-mary being the very last day of the season and all. With it raining the night before, we were worried about how it was going to be. It ended up being a great day. Lin, Jeff, Jenn and I had a blast riding all the coasters. It was pretty cool with Jeff there. He hadn't been to the park in like 10 years. I think I heard him say the last time was when the Magnum was new. Late 90s I think.

So we road all the good ones. All along Jenn swore she wasn't going to ride the Top Thrill Dragster. There was no way I was going to let her leave the park and not ride the best ride there (in my opinion.)

So we got there with just about 30 minutes left for the park being open. She kept saying she was going to walk through at the last minute. As we got closer, she got quieter. Next thing you know, we are on deck. Man, the lines go fast in the fall!

Side story...it was very disturbing that we were in line behind this girl. No big deal, except for the fact she looked like she was 8 months pregnant. She was HUGE! And in line for a roller coaster! Well after a bit we noticed that she had a teddy bear in her sweatshirt due to the rules of the park not allowing things in line for the ride. Whew!

Ok, back to Jenn. We are in the ride now and on deck. If you have never been on this ride...well you just have to see it to understand. Long story short (too late) we shooting off and up, and down! It was great. Jenn on the other hand was not impressed.

We had a blast this year. Can't wait to go again next year!
