The Gemini Roller Coaster at Cedar Point Amusement Park, Sandusky Ohio

I love Gemini but it is damn frustrating. You see when both trains are running side by side you can hand slap riders on the other train. So I've wanted to hand slap Bond while we rode. Last time we were here his train broke down (Thanks Paul...yet another coaster he added to his "broken coaster count") and got stuck on the lift while my train went on so no hand slapping then. This year only one side of it was running so no hand slapping again. Urgh! This has to be bad karma or a conspiracy. I am going to get to hand slap Bond on Gemini, even if I have to keep trying until my Grandchildren are riding with us.

Skyhawk at Cedar Point Amusement Park, Sandusky Ohio

Yay Skyhawk...one of my favorite non-coaster rides EVER!

Skyhawk is the experience of a backyard swing super-super-SUPER-sized and turbo charged. It's just so much fun I want one of these at every amusement park world wide. So parks start buying these, your customers will love you for it.

The Cedar Creek Mine Ride Roller Coaster at Cedar Point Amusement Park, Sandusky Ohio

There was no line for the Cedar Creek Mine Ride and Bond wanted to ride so be hopped on it. What ended up being one of the most fun rides of our day. You see there was a little girl going for her first coaster ride seated right in front of us and she was just loving it.

"Awesome...awesome...AWESOME"!

That's what she said as we went around the Mine Ride's course and it brought grins to all of our faces as it was great experiencing the birth of a new coaster lover.
