Coastermania!

Ok, I got to the park at 6 and waited untill they opened at around 7:30. I got on Raptor first and was on the 2nd train of the day. Then I got on blue streak, mantis and Power tower. All were walk ons. Mantis wasn't rough at all, and I really enjoyed it. I then went back to Raptor and rode it 5 more times. I then got one last ride on Blue streak. During the ert, I got some breakfast. When the park opened, I went over to MF and got on it in about an hour. I then went over to Maggie and waited about 10 min. Both rides were tens. I then went back to Mean Streak and waited about 15 min. The ride wasn't too bad, but trimmed a little too much on the drop. It wasn't rough at all though. I then went on CCMR. It was an ok ride. Then went over to Gemini and waited about 20 min which is longer than normal for this ride. The ride was pretty fun. I then went on Woodstock express. It's a fun little family coaster. After that I hit corkscrew. This ride was pretty fun. After corkscrew was lunch. The lunch was pretty good, and I was surprised that it'd be that good since it was free. After lunch I went on Demon Drop where I hear some funny stuff from the kids behind me. You can go look at Stupid things guest say to read what they said. Then I hit Disaster transport. I liked the new theming and the ride was pretty fun. After DT, I went and got on Wildcat. Then I went back to my room and ate at fridays. Then I took about a 2 hour nap. I then entered the park again and got on Maggie once more. The ride was great. I then went on corkscrew since there wasn't any line at all. Then went on Iron Dragon and didn't wait. Then went over to Mantis and waited about 15 min. The ride was still pretty good. After Mantis I went back over and got on Maggie for the last ride of the night. Then made my over to MF for the ert. I had to wait about an hour for them to clear everyone out that was still in line for the ride after the park had closed. When ert started, I was on the third train. It was a great ride. I then went and got in line again, and waited about 30 min this time. I sat in the very back seat and it was great. It was the best ride of the day. It was also nice b/c they turned off the lights on the island. That ride ended the day at CP. Overall it was a great day and I'll be coming back for COastermania every year now. I was a little dissapointed that WT wasn't open, but my day was still great. My total ride count for the day was 27 total rides.

Glad you had a great time. I thought that there were a lot of people there for the ERT. I don't believe that I will be going back for Coastermania in the future. Just too crowded. Muffleheads were out in force too.
