How much were the tickets to get in the park?

How much gas you burn getting there and back?

How much does lunch cost inside the park?

Waiting for momma and Layniebug to go on a roller coaster. Nothing like the crowd in a "designated smoking area" to make you feel like you made a poor life decision :lol:

1/2 pound of corned beef, knock wurst beer wurst, bratwurst, sauerkraut, German potato salad, pumpernickel roll, Black Forest cake, $18. Food isn't expensive here at all, surprisingly.

I'm now taking a dump.

It was 7.50 for a hamburger last night at the game and 5 for a coke. They really break it off in you at that place.

In all seriousness, watching the kids laugh like hell and carry on is worth every penny.

Yep. I love Disney for that reason alone. Impossible to be angry when laughing children are around.

Looks like old AT was expecting it to suck and wound up having a good time. Hence the lack of updates today.

If those women hasn't made up their minds pretty fucking quick sitting in the Taco Bell drive through (that they just had to have), you were about to get one hell of an update. Raining like hell, I was tired, and just wanted to get home, and they take a half hour to get some damn burritos.

Just finished taking care of the pup. Got home at 2:50. I'm beat. 20 hour day, with 8 hours of driving and the rest walking around an amusement park kicked my ass.

The adventure of the evening was the accident we were damn near in. Coming home on a divided 4 lane road, guy coming the other way blows a red turn signal, giving it hell, I guess trying to beat me through the intersection. Raining like hell, so all I can do is let off the gas. He never slowed down, so couldn't make the turn onto his road, hit his brakes at the last second, about 10 feet before he t-boned the guardrail on our right doing about 40. Had no choice but to swerve like hell into the left lane and on to the shoulder to miss him as he bounced straight back off the guardrail and back into the right lane. Felt like a NASCAR driver for a moment, clearing a wreck up high. Caused 2 of the 4 to wake up, look at me, and say "what the fuck", since they didn't see it. They thought I was falling asleep. Then I start catching hell because I didn't stop. Fuck that. A rainy, dark highway, with zero light except the traffic light, at 1 am on a Saturday, in the rain, with a smashed up car blocking the highway. Yeah- so I can get smashed by another car, or we can get hit, to check on what was most likely a drunk who damn near killed us. Fuck that. My sympathy is limited. I saw the two cars behind me stop, so we just kept on trucking. Pissed me off.

I'll see if I can find some videos later, after what I hope to be a 6 hour nap, or so. I don't scare very easily at all, but there was one roller coaster that was the most intense thing I've ever been on. Good times were had by all.

I'll catch you all later. Back to sleep I go.

Nah, no sweat. I could've had another AR and a quite a few rounds for what I spent, but it was worth it. We don't do this very often, which makes it even more fun.

Glad you got home safe Jim. Was that wreck on the eastern shore? Lots of drunk drivers on a Saturday night there!

Looks like a nice park. I've only been to the Busch Gardens in FL and that was a long time ago.
