So just got back from ohio. Awesome trip. Flew my niece in from vegas and took her and my nephew up to Cedar Point. First stop, White Castle in Akron Ohio, payed for this later
. We stayed at Castaway Bay. As always the hotel was great. After they got tired out at the water park, we went to Ghostly Manor for some XD3D movies. Cosmic Coaster was the best, well worth it. Then went over to Tofts Dairy for Icecream. I'm lactose intolerant, but that **** was good. Then sandusky got slammed by a super cell storm complete with tornado warnings etc so we went to the mall until it blew over. Onto Thirsty Pony. Had to work up an appetite first, so we bowled for awhile then went in and ate. Ordered a 30 wing sampler, super nachos, 2x sloppy pig and a philly cheesteak. heh we were about to explode. Next day was off to Cedar Point. Got ert and fast lane passes (which if u dont know, fast lane doesnt start until 10am). Fast Lane was totally worth it. We rode almost everything multiple times. He we had alot more time to do stuff we dont normally get to do. Heh we saw they Snoopy is Happiness Ice Show with Justin Beagle. lol. Said goodbye to Disaster Transport.
I actually like that ride. Windseeker/cablecars were down due to high winds. Got on Mean Streak, niece took her phone out to take a pic while it was climbing the hill, they stopped the ride. LOL. They walked all the way up the hill, to tell her to put her phone away. For those of you wondering, Mean Streak isnt any better with the new wood. The parts they replaced, were not the sections where you get you ribs shattered etc. Not a fan of that ride. We went over to the arcade to kinda take a break from coasters. Man, I never ever win anything. heh I won 4 jackpots on 4 different machines all on the first try. It was like that movie vegas vacation. I put $1 in I got a car..I put $1 in I got a car..etc. No I didnt win cars, just tickets. The Luminosity show was amazing, way better then what they had before. Even after the performers show is over, they have a DJ and its a non stop party. Felt like I was at a rave, without the drugs of course. After we left the park, it was onto Thirsty Pony again. We just got wings though. The Next day, I took them over to East Harbor Park. If you never been there, its a beach on the lake where the water is shallow, only up to your knees like over 100 feet out. We then took the ferry over to Put-Nam-bay. We just walked around and chilled for awhile, went to lunch at Hooligans, which is an Irish Pub. Then we headed back to charlotte.
