Well now.. SIX FLAGS GREAT ADVENTURE on Saturday!!  Im going with a bunch of friends  12+ so I don’t know if I’ll be able to bring my camera.  Its when I go with just my boyfriend and my bestie that they indulge me snapping away all the time.  hmmm…..

a lot of news has come from this.  But I’m unsure about one thing.   It seems that this area will have an entrance from Universal itself and another entrance via train from Islands of Adventure.  Does that mean that you will be able to parkhop via the train?

I know its  moot point this late in the game, but this is what i miss.  Before the dumb rethemeing.  When it was just Superman: Ride of Steel and didn’t have all these corny props to fly by.  Looks beautiful

Lets see, so far Ive shown Bizarro, Mind Eraser, Cyclone, Flashback, and Pandemonium.  

That leaves Dark Knight, Gotham City Gauntlet, Catwoman, Goliath and Thunderbolt to show

I was asked: no Great Chase pics?

so funny story.  The Great Chase is a small kiddie coaster that can’t be more than 12 feet tall.  So 2 years ago I take my nieces up to Six Flags New England with my mom.  They are growing up to be good little amateur adrenaline junkies.  I am training them well.  First thing we did in the park was put them in the front row of Bizarro despite their fear of the its height.  Anyways, my mom watches us ride Bizarro, Mind Eraser, Dark Knight, and shakes her head.  She doesn’t like rides.  So we’re headed towards Blizzard River and we pass the Great Chase and I jokingly ask her if she would ride it.  She hesitates and then says maybe.  I make the quickest U turn and we are in line for the Great Chase.  I want to ride with her so bad but its meant for a parent and a kid so there is no room.  So i sit in front and she sits with one of my nieces.  Its not quick  but when we descended down that 12 ft slope, this woman screamed like it was Bizarro.  ”aye Dios mio!”  it was the funniest moment in my life.  She kept screaming, no doubt scaring the little kids on the ride.  Such a great memory

I should have taken pics of it.  But i do plan to hit New England 1 more time this year.  So I have time.

I ran out of light for Thunderbolt.  But it must have gotten retracked recently cause it was smoother than i expected I ran out of light for Thunderbolt.  But it must have gotten retracked recently cause it was smoother than i expected

BUt it was a great compact yet intense B&M ride
