Ok, I went to the park Sunday with some friends from work. I thought Sunday would be slow, but I realized that this being a holiday Sunday, I was wrong. Even though I somehow forgot about the holiday weekend, we still had lots of fun. We started the day with Borg...and the lines moved very fast on Borg (surprised). the line ended at the loop and we stood in line for maybe ~20 mins. The ride was rough like always and I was ready to get off. Next was the Hurler...had only 1 train running in the morning, but the line went quick. Next was cyclone, walked right on and enjoyed the thing like always. Next was Vortex, line moved slowed. We were lined back to the sign (before they opened the walk around que) but still waited ~35mins. Vortex SUCKS period!

After Vortex, we was off to Thunder Road. Now, no backwards side and only 1 train running forwards and the line was down the ramp almost to the entrance sign. Waited ~45mins to ride and the ride was so fun, but not worth a 45 min wait, but its ok. Top Gun had a ahuge line that moved super quick and the ride run great. Southern Star moved quick and was fun and by the early afternoon, the rides were running great and the lines moved fast. TR still only had 1 train so no more TR for me. But overall, had a great time for once and did not get mad at anything, even the employees behaved very well that day. So, in general, things looked much better this trip than the last one a couple months ago!
