Especially the summer I spent working from home. In afternoons I would get my daughter and her friend to head over the the park. \n\nWe could spend a couple of hours riding every roller coaster. In many cases we could get off the coaster and then get right back on for another ride. Of course their was always a line for newest rollercoaster.\n\nThe water and the amusement park are combined so bring you bathing suit and cool down on one of the slides.\n\nI have not been back since the new company took over last year."^^ .
