Best pcw trip ever!!! (long)

Yresterday (tuesday) me and my family went to pcw. We ar4ived at quarter to tewn and got to the front of the crowd and were the 4th ride on top gun, front seat. After that while my parents took my bro to kidzville, i rode the bat, wilde beast, abnd drop zone, not waiting more than half hour for any of them, and wild best was practiacally a walk on. After that, me and my mom rode vortex(i hadnt ridden that in 3 years becuase lines have been so long and that isnt my highest priority there) Then i rode shockwave (a mondial top scan) man that thing is great! i rode oit once before, and the line was an hour, yesterday the line was 30 min, it would have been shorter, but the ops were pathetically slow. By lunch i had ridden all the coasters (except fly cause it su*ks), shockwave and cliffhanger. On all of my other trips to pcw the lines have been crazy, 2:30 for top gun, 2:00 for drop zone, 1:30 for cliffhanger, 1:45 for the bat. Today, i neevr waited more than 30 min, and at 1 oclock, i rode top gun twice in 15 min! I never get sick of that ride! I rode every coastre again i the afternoon, plus some flayt rides. In the last hour, me and my dad went on a mine buster marathona nd rode it 10 times in a row, each time from a differetn seat. It was great! OF course this park is nothign compared to others, like cp, mm, or sfgadv, but today, it was awesome!
Top gun: 3 times peak wait at 15 min.Notes: Hold on if you want to keep yuor neck from beign hurt in the first inversion, dotn sit in the back.Best ride in the park IMHO
wild beast: 3 times, peak wait 10 min. Notes: quite rough in the back, some good airtime, lotsa lateral gs. Great woodie.
drop zone: 2 times, peak wait 25 min Notes: huge adrenaline rush!
the bat: 3 times, peak wait 30 min Notes: Just a regualr vekoma boomerang, but the first drop is cool and its pretty fun. Sit in the back
Vortex: 3 times, peak wait 15 min. Notes Gotten rough over thew years, great positive gs, very rough in the back, but not the bad kind of rough
Skyrider once, peak wait 5 min. Notes, Only TOGO i have evr liked, but i dont like it much anymore. The op pushed my otsrs in too far, givign me a painful, no airtime ride, especially in the helix, ow ow ow! Last time i ever ride that.
Jet scream: twice. Peak wait 5 min. notes: very fun.
shockwave: twice, peak wait: 30 min. Notes:Best flat ride i have ridden.
Mine buster: 12 times, peak wait 10 min. Notes, painful in back, AWESOME from front, good airtime, the last helix is great.
Dragon fire: twice. Peak wait 5 min Notes: Too short, great first drop, corkscrews a bit painful.
Cliffhanger: twice, peak wait: 5 minNotes: Toned down a lot from last year, its not as long and it doesnt pull as many different inversions, still get soaked though

Now THAT is a good trip!
