... I remember that area, but it was really tight. There was a paved area squished between the shops and the Hoosier Hurricane. If the ride goes there, there...
Think further back towards the ride. There's a little section of parking in that area next to the Hurricane/Rapids stairs and stations between the rides and...
Well Kids, We're off to Disneyland today! We're taking the train (for the first time). Finally, I'm not driving to California. As it turns out, the AM-Trak...
Since things are a bit slow right now, how about telling us the most memorable coaster experience(s) for you in 2007? For me, the highlight was El Toro, which...

I too am struck numb. Kennywood is the last park group I would have expected to sell out. Now there are no small regional park operators left in the U.S....
Probably more to do with the exchange rate right now as well... As someone explained it to me, it's like the entire USA is having a 30% off sale. Apparently...
