Where should I go next year?

I only get to go to one major park a year, unless I can somehow persuade my parents otherwise,(very unlikely) so here's my possibilities. I live between KW, SFWoA, SFDL, and CP. I went to CP this year, so I probably won't go next year. I have relitives in Cincinati and we go there every year, so I could get to SFKK, Holiday World, and PKI. I also have relatives in Harrisburg and we also go there every year so HP, SFA, and DP are also possibilities. So here are my biggest options w/ driving times from where I would be when I would go.(my house or relatives house):

From my house:
SFWoA: 2 hrs.
KW: 2 hrs.
SFDL: 2.25 hrs.

From Cincy relatives house:
PKI: 15 min.
SFKK: 2 hrs
HW: 2.5 hrs

From Harrisburg relatives house:
HP: 20 min
SFA: 1.5-2 hrs
DP: 1.5 hrs

so, where should I go?

Out of those, I'd say PKI, KW, and HW are your best choices. I love The Beast(fav. coaster), Kennywood is a spectacular park and my favorite park(for originality reasons), and I really want to go to Holiday World but haven't(probably go within 2 years). I guess I just like the woodies, but it's up to you.

OK, my first cuts are- SFKK(Not good enough rides and excess driving), SFDL(just doesn't compare to some of the others.) And unfortounately- HW and KW are pretty close to be getting the boot. HW because of excess driving time and the fact that they only have 2 coasters and no steel coasters, and KW because they just don't have that world-class-ness.

I would say that out of the choices, I would pick:

SFWoA, PKI, and HP

I feel that they are the best parks and you get the most variety and choice of rides coasters and fun. I think that you are so lucky that you get to go to three amusement parks in one year! I usually only go to SFWoA twice a year, Kennywood once and Idlewild Park (family trip, Idlewild Park has 2 rollercoasters). I have been on all of the coasters so far and they are very good but I want a variety type of setting if you know what I mean!

Remember, I only have one(or two really cheap ones). Right now, I think it's mainly between SFA, SFWoA, PKI, HP, and DP. I wish my parents were into coasters like me.
