MY VACATION
Raptor Magnum Mantis
note: I ditched a bunch of pictures of the coasters I had in favor of this cool drop down menu for the pics
I went on a bunch of rollercoasters when i was on vacation. One was the MAGNUM XL 200!!! It is 201 feet tall, and sends you shooting down at 80 mph! After that monstrosity are two other hills, the last one you come back up on an angle and you feel like you're gonna be dumped out! Augh! Then you get shot into a dark, foggy tunnel, and you don't expect the next series of hills. WOW!
Along with the Magnum are like 11 other coasters, (13 in all but two are kiddie coasters) which are all excellent. The Raptor is another coaster that is SO cool. You hang below the track in these really nifty chairs and get whizzed along a track that sends you upside-down like 6 times, two cobra rolls and a loop at the end that inflicts 2.5g's on you! My other favorites were the Gemini (a coaster that has two trains racing at once. It's so cool to slap hands during the slow turns with the people in the other train!) the Iron Dragon (my first 'real' coaster) and the Blue Streak. The Blue Streak is the oldest one there, but it goes pretty fast and gives you some good air time. Cool!
Cedar Point is the best Amusement park out there, not only because of the Coasters (Cedar P. has the most coasters of any amusement park) but because of everything else too! There is plenty to do and you could spend a week there and still not do everything! For more info, and more pics goto http://www.cedarpoint.com
