One highlight about the north east is the abundance of theme parks in a short distance. I mean, no matter where you are in the midwest there is usually a theme park within a 3 hour drive, but two or three would make 6 hour journeys or longer. Next week, I'll be going to three different parks, and I won't travel more than 2 1/2 hours for any of them.
Friday October 8th: Dorney Park. Located in Allentown, PA Dorney Park isn't the biggest thing in the world, but for a Friday night in October it should do the trick just fine. Looking forward to riding Talon, Hydra, and Steel Force. I've yet to actually enjoy any Morgan Hyper coaster to date, but maybe this one will be better?
Monday October 11th: Six Flags Great Adventure: Here's a park I've wanted to visit since high school. Home to Kingda Ka, El Toro, and Nitro among others. Some of the biggest and baddest coasters in America live here, and I'm very thankful that Columbus Day means that this theme park is open on a Monday in October. Crowds might be big, but hopefully I'll be able to get on everything.
Sunday October 18th: Lake Compounce: I love smaller parks, and Lake Compounce is just that, plus a couple awesome coasters. Balderdash has been rated very high in wooden coasters since it was built, and I've always wanted to ride the thing at night. Sunday the park is open from 5 till 10 for its Halloween event, and I'll be there for the coasters. Very excited.
That's my preview, detailed trip reports to come as I attend each park.
