Ride On! as they say
As the cap to a pretty stressful summer, Jeremy and I decided to do something completely impractical and fun, and so today we went to Cedar Point. People who know me know that I get motion sickness on like, bicycles, so historically I have not enjoyed Cedar Point to an extreme degree. However, Jeremy is a "coaster enthusiast" and his delight is contagious.
We decided to proceed with our plans this morning despite some light rain. The rain increased in severity for the first few hours we were there, but we had dressed appropriately and were mostly content, as the majority of the rides were still operating. By two or three o'clock, the precipitation had cleared up completely.
I wouldn't set foot on anything other than the medium-strength Iron Dragon. Jeremy rode that with me, as well as more advanced coasters the Millenium Force and the Wicked Twister (which we kept mistakenly calling the Twisted Sister). The rest of the time we were there was taken up, unfortunately, by standing in line. Still, we had a great time escaping the daily grind of grown-up living for an afternoon. Highly recommended!
