Lake Erie serves as the backdrop to the giant wheel and the Wicked Twister Coaster.
Erica poses with Snoopy in front of their new Planet Snoopy attractions: (you are never too old to pose with Snoopy!)
One of the spires on the Wicked Twister - Erica and Scott are in the 2nd to the last car, and heading towards the top of the structure.
Another aerial view of the park (taken from the Giant Wheel) - the steep coaster in the far background is the initial drop of the Millennium Force Coaster - 310 feet high. The large structure up front is the Power Tower. (a free fall tower)
Erica and Scott ready to be launched on the Top Thrill Dragster: this crazy ride launches you from 0 to 120 mph in 4 seconds, directly up 410 feet, crest the top of the ride and back down the other side (and the track twists on the way up and down).
It is very entertaining to watch people as they are about to experience this ride - the anticipation and nervousness of first time riders and the excitement of experienced riders. Heck, Erica still looks apprehensive, and this will be her third time!
Anyways, the ride is a MUST DO - the view from up top is awesome!
Taking things a little slower - Brian drives an antique sports car.
Must must must go there someday!

ReplyDeleteI first went in 1990 with people from work (was working in Cleveland at the time). It was great then, but even better now.
