This TR is really starting on the 12th and ending on the 15th, but my days in the park were the 13th and 14th.

This trip was my first to CP ever! Ok, so I woke up at 7:30, took a shower, and then came downstairs to go take a look at the live web cam. It looked rainy, and I was so mad. But, I knew that it would clear up. So, got into the car about 9:30 and got to the airport say about 10:30, got some French fries from Burger King, and then waited for my plane to come.

The plane arrived, and it was SMALL. I bumped my head getting into the seat, but, I knew it was worth it. We arrived at Toledo Airport, and got our limo ride to Hotel Breakers. On the way, I fell asleep, and when I woke up, I asked my mom, “Are we there yet?” And, she said, “We’re in Sandusky.” So, I got really excited! I was looking at these houses thinking that they are so lucky to live that close to Cedar Point. I saw about 8 signs that said something like ‘Cedar Point ahead’. So, finally, after about 20 minutes of looking for it, I saw Cedar Point! I saw MF and TTD from across the lake.

So, the first coaster I saw up close was Blue Streak, then Mean Streak, and then we drove under Magnum, which I thought was really cool. So, we got to Hotel Breakers, and there was no air conditioning in the lobby, so I was dying. So, we got into the room, and the room description said non-view, so I was thinking it was going to be a brick wall, but I had the best view. I saw all of the rides on the Top Thrill Dragster Midway, and Millennium Force. We got changed and went out to the Magnum entrance.

I was looking around and thinking awesome! We took a shuttle from the hotel to Famous Dave’s. Whoa, that was a lot of food! I love that place! So, we went back to the Magnum entrance and took some pics. We went back to the hotel and got 2 2-day tickets. We got into the room and tried to go to sleep. I could not fall asleep. I was too excited.

Day 1

I woke up at 5:30 to see the coasters right in the morning. They looked great.

We took a shuttle to the Marina entrance and we were first in line to get in! I was not moving. We heard the Star Spangled Banner, and I was so happy that my amazing day was about to begin. The guy took my ticket, and I was off.

I ran straight to Millennium Force, and was third in line! It was down, so we waited a little. Then they let us in. I got second train of the day, front left. We got to the top, and I threw my hands up, and went down the first drop, and it was so awesome because my eyes watered. I had a good first ride, and went over to TTD.

I waited about 45 minutes for TTD, but it was worth it. I wasn’t going to get front seat because of the wait. I know it would have been worth it, but, my mistake.

I went over to maXair, and waited about 30 minutes and I got seat 38. And I was kinda bummed, but it was still really fun!

Then, I headed over to Mantis with about a 20-minute wait. I hated that ride, it beat my ears up.

Then I went to go ride Gemini. Blue side was first. I was awesome that it was a walk-on each time I went on. Then I rode Red side.

Then, I rode Magnum. I waited for what I thought was the ejector seat, but I was wrong, so I didn’t have that good of a ride.

It was about 1:30, so we headed back to Hotel Breakers, and I felt I had a bad case of umm…... diaper rash. We went to TGI Friday’s, and the service was terrible. It took forever in there. So, me and my dumb thinking, it was about 3:15, and I thought that they would still be giving out MF freeways, and when I heard that they weren’t, I was so mad! So, I went over to TTD to see if they were giving freeways out anymore, and I saw that they weren’t, so I was even more mad!

It started to rain, so you can imagine how mad I was then. So we waited in some arcade until it stopped.

I just decided to wait in line for them then. So, I walked over to Millennium Force and waited 30 minutes for another great ride. Then headed over to Iron
