I had so much fun (first time since 2003) Got there at about 10:45, went staight to borg. 45 minute wiat (they need some misters or something to cool you off.) That ride was awesome!! Didn't get to ride it again since the line was so long. Went to Top Gun. There was no line (all day actually). Got two rides in a row.

Went and rode TR backwords for the first time. (Never ride near the back) Rode it forwards. They were racing up the lift hill until a DA stuck there hands out of the train (twice) So they stopped us (twice on the lift hill. Went and did Bumper Cars and then Frenziod for first time ever. That lap bar is painful when they release it.

Then went and rode Ricochet, Drop Zone, Hurler, and Screamweaver. Hurler needs to be retracked or something...it is so rough as was TR. Next went and rode Vortex. And then went to ride Rip Roarin Rapids...line was long & people were coming off barely even damp. Went and rode RP-Air Time (really is tame comared to The Guantlet. So, did TG and Vortex over and left.

Wish I could have rode FSS but line was really long plus they didn't have the geysers/waterfalls on.

I did not do the flyers (line was long all day long plus I really wanted another Borg ride but didn't get that either.

Had a great time.

Wish I had a platnium pass...today was WW preview day.

Borg does have misters in the line, They must have not been on today. Hurler's first turn was re-tracked this year and Thunder Road was re-tracked 2 years ago.

They didn't have the misters in the line or in that "canopy of vines tunnel."
