    I am amazed at how many parks some of you have visited this year. And as for my list, well it is not nearly as long as most of you, but here goes.

    King's Dominion (5 visits, one last visit planned)
    Carowinds (3 visits)
    Busch Gardens Williamsburg (4 visits)


    12 total visits was a far cry from last year when I had 20 visits between 4 parks. But of course, sky rocketing gas costs really caused me to cut back a lot of my trips. In essence Kings Dominion is considered my home park, although Carowinds is about 45 minutes closer to my house.

    Can't say I made it to many this summer.
    I did get to: Hersheypark (it's my home park), SFGADV, and SFA.
    Next summer, three of my friends and I are planning a trip out to Cedar Point and Holiday World.

    I went to Knotts Berry Farm, Six Flags Great America, Kennywood, and Carowinds [Homepark]. I almost went to Paramount's Great America, but that trip got canceled at the last minute.

    dang some of yall just got too much time on your hands and must have a lot of money to be going to that many parks in one summer. How do yall have all that money to go to all them parks but no job? I mean it's impossible to have a real job if you're going to all of them parks. Unless that is your job. See i work at an amusement park so i had no time to visit other parks.

    Sorry to double post like this but I noticed after the fact that PGH_Steeler asked how you can do this? THe easy way is to go to a region that has alot of parks within 1-2.5 hrs. from each other on vacation. I left Friday after work and drove to hershey-dorney-sfgradv-sfa-pkd-BGW all within a week and a half (It did help taking my vacation the week before Memorial Day as to have ten days off in a row) I was able to hit all the major rides at all of the parks and still had time to take a day here and there to rest in Virginia. My girlfriend got really whooped after the fifth park in five days six if you count the night we got into Hershey and getting in the last 2.5 hours they were open that night for free(knocked out 6 coasters in that 2.5 hours)before going again the next day. I f I had my choice we would have added Carowinds and possibly SFOG to that trip. The others were all weekend trips for me (PKI and KW) except for CP and GL which I conveniently live about 30 -45 minutes from in either direction.
