Hi
Well I just wrote a detailed trip report and lost it. Funny how computers can sometimes be the greatest of magicians and make things disappear.....
I'll do an easier version.
We have spring break here in Virginia Beach this week. Everyone else decided to go there as well. It took an hour to get from the exit ramp of the highway into the park. That's about 3/4 mile. Lines were long but we did Flying over Europe, Griffon and Battering Ram.
Flying was new last year. I wish BG would step up their level of technology. I know it's out there but they just don't seem to get it right. They also have Dark Kastle. Both are a bit of a dissapointment to me. Some of it is very cool but the synching seems off to me and both leave me feeling a bit...uncomfortable. I also think they are going for the thrill level of adventure and I want a smooth dark ride. BG does coasters REALLY WELL. They are openig a new one next year. This year will see a new drop ride. Can't wait. If you are a thrill junky BG is for you!
The lines were long and we are close with summer passes, so after the frozen lemonade fix we went home. I hope to get out there five or six times this summer.
A quick hint. If you go, buy tickets on line and print it out. The line for buying tickets was several hundred people deep but we were in in about 5 minutes because we had the print out. Don't wait in line at the top of the hill. The actual entrance is at the bottom of the hill. :thumbsup:
