Memorial Day Weekend '06

[primalv]

Quite a fun weekend indeed, and it didn't even have anything to do with FF!  Somehow, someway, which I can only explain through divine intervention, I managed to procure 3 days off from work in a row.  I used this opportunity to head up to Cedar Point and Geauga Lake with a couple of friends.  I'm a huge fan of rollercoasters and thrill rides, so

That's awesome. I had a good time when I was in Cedar Point. Despite the fact it was raining, it was great. Haha, there's nothing like going on the Millenium Force at the very front row, screaming at the top of your lungs in defiance of the rain and lightning in the sky.

The Millenium Force at night is hands down the best coaster experience I have ever had. I personally prefer the back though; you experience more feeling and get less bugs in your face (a HUGE plus during mayfly season).
God I hate mayfly season, the ground literally sounds like you're walking on Rice Krispies.

I don't know if there is one outside of Valencia, CA. But if you ever get the chance to get to Six Flags Magic Mountain, the X ride is quite possibly the best rollercoaster experience I have ever had. And I much like you am a bit of a junky concerning my stomach hitting my tonsils. Good times.

Six Flag's X-Flights are indeed an incredible experience. We have one in Geauga Lake which actually used to be Six Flags Worlds of Adventure before Cedar Fair (Cedar Point's parent company) purchased it. It's a very good coaster, and no matter how many times I ride it I always have that "moment of death" fear when it flips you over and all my weight shifts to the harness.
