BGW, IOA and BGT info?

I'm off on my forth coaster trip of 2000 on Saturday. Starting with BGW, then catching a plane down to florida to go to IOA and BGT! Anyone have any inside info on the crowds this time of year for these parks? Which coasters do I seek out first? Which would you choose between BGW and PKD? Thanks for any info! :)

BGW in a heartbeat... PKD has so many coasters, but other than Volcano, few are interesting. I just didn't dig that park at all when I went in June. We did all of the coasters in about four hours, ate some nasty and expensive food, then left.

It was such a sharp contrast to our previous day at BGW. That park is gorgeous in every way. What they lack in quantity they make up for in quality. The food is outstanding, the park is clean, the critter attractions are cool... I could go on all day.

IOA is awesome! Everything about it is great. Are you going on a weekend? Because the park will be very crowded. Even if it is crowded you'll have a great time. My suggestion is to try to find a couple days at the end of January to go next time. in every park the crowds are alomot nothing. No matter when you go you should hit spiderman first then run on over to hulk.

bgw is truly a great park. we got there right when they let us in and left when they kicked us out. we rode all the coasters in 1.5 hours in the morning. we werent bored for the 10.5 hours the rest of the day. head for apollo's first

Oh well, you have convinced me to try BGW Jeff, which is what I was leaning towards anyway. Haven't had the privilege to ride AC yet and the park looks very appealing to me.

I guess I got lucky in my trip to PKD this past May, as I quite enjoyed the park and most of its coasters. Having said that, it doesn't compare to BGW, a beautiful, "classy" theme park with outstanding rides of all kinds.
