I actually did something interesting recently. I should have posted about it sooner. I went to Cedar Point with my parents and my cousin RaShell. We rode lots of rides. With the help of cedarpoint.com's map I can tell you everyhing I did in the order I did it.

We arrived at the park around 9:30 and got our picture take by Mr. Crazy Camera Man. First we went to the Millenium Force. Later in the day the line would have been huge, so I'm glad we did this first. This was also the beginning of my tradition of always sitting on the left, with RaShell on my right. This would soon cause me great pain. Keep reading to find out how. Then we went south and rode Matterhorn, Scrambler, and Dodgem. While on the Matterhorn some people on the ride started yelling. They were trying to get the attention of their friend Michael, who was not on the ride. So I decided to help out by screaming at Michael also. After that Michael became my "Waldo." Whenever I saw him I had to point him out to RaShell. Next we rode Flying Dragon and Mantis. I didn't like Mantis much. After standing in line I don't like standing on the ride. We rode the Sky ride back to the park entrance to hit some we missed. But first we went to get something to eat at Jonny Rocket's. They didn't have Dr. Pepper, the food was expensive, but tasted ok, and the stupid juke box stole my nickle*! After eating we decided to ride a nice slow ride. The Space Spiral** is just want we needed. Next we rode the Disaster Transport after mom explained to me it was just a ride, and not some form of emergency transport system. Next came Troika. Then we had to line before they would let us enter the line for the Wicked Twister. Apparently the ride needed clean because someone got threw up. Next we rode Chaos. But by the time me and RaShell had learned the secret*** to getting it to rock it had already ended. Next we rode Ocean Motion. And then I got Dippin' Dots! They were awesome! I ate it while waiting in line for Magnum XL-200. Next came some of my favorite rides! The Wave Swinger and the Witches' Wheel! Yay! Next we had a long wait for Sky Hawke, but it was a lot of fun. I think next we took a break and ate nachos with cheese at some place I can't remember the name of. Next we needed to ride the train all the way to the other side of the park. Remember how a said sitting on the left caused be great pain. This is where it happened. The train traveled dangerously close to a water ride and then...sprinkle, sprinkle....sprinkle! Water****...there was nowhere to run. After we got off the demon train we rode Wildcat, Cedar Downs, and Calypso. And then the sad lonely Blue Streak. I believe it is Cedar Points oldest coaster. Apparently people don't like it any more. The more thing had less than a dozen people in line. Then we rode the Raptor, our last Roller Coaster. Then we finished up with MaxAir and another go at Chaos. Apparently focusing on rocking makes the ride less fun. Then we returned to the hotel.

*was not actually my nickle
**did not go into space
***ride must be rocked manually
****Water did not hurt
