Destination: Vegas

LOL! That's pretty much how I felt at Coney, Sue. Thanks, I'll be sure to check that out. Anything to pad that track record. ;)

I definitely hope you have better luck in Vegas than we did, Vater. All we got to ride was the Dragon, Big Shot, Speed, and Canyon Blaster. High Roller was closed for annual maintenance. Even though it's not much of a ride, I've been wanting to ride that forever just for it's location so that really bummed me out. To top it off, it was cold and rainy out causing both Desperado and ME to be closed. We had a room at Buffalo Bill's overlooking Desperado's first drop and never even got to see a train go by.

Have a great trip and birthday!

Mini Grand? I love that! It's like jumbo shrimp ;)

Well, it's supposed to snow in this area this afternoon and evening. I'll be flying out of BWI at 8:30 Eastern time. Hopefully, I won't have to put up with any delays due to the snow...I can't wait to escape the winter for a few days.

Take a ride...

Speed the ride 2x in a row was cool. But it was enough. Actually several people got of the train after the first ride. I wish it went though the casino. Would have made it great. It was kind of bumpy at points. The restraint was too high on my head so my ears got a betting in the loop. There were 2 LIMs mid track, which was really cool and unexpected. It was a great feeling being accelerated faster mid way through the ride. The ride is really short.

High roller was a kiddie coaster 1200’ feet up. Enough said. Lol. Great view.

Manhattan Express. Well. It’s rough. Really rough. It gave me a headache that took hours to get over. Again. Could have been better themed and more intrinsic to the design of the Hotel. The loop felt gimicy. More for a showoff element for all the people passing the front of the hotel on the strip. Felt out of place with the rest of the ride.
