NO PICS. sorry, didn't want to take the digital camera and we didn't bother picking up a disposable one.
so, we got there around 11...some nice lady gave us a buy one get one free coupon so that was cool. some of the batman/superman thrill rides they have are the joker's jinx(like a big green ball of knotted string, very cool), the batwing(has you laying horizontally for flying effect, VERY COOL, VERY SMOOTH), the superman ride of steel(big drop, a few big spirals, not a whole lot to distract you from the sheer speed, very cool), the two face ride(was closed :(), and the penguin river ride(you go down a watery slide in a rapids raft type thing, with brake pads located throughout the slide to keep the thing SPINNING THE WHOLE WAY DOWN. i liked it, derick got sick.) the other rides were pretty meh. well, the two wooden rollercoasters were alright. and the pirate water ride was cool, but it broke down eventually. the rapids was nice, derick and i got soaked more than any others on the raft :tickled: . besides it being a very small six flags park in comparison to six flags over texas, and derick getting nauseous(he got motion sickness medicine so it was all good), and me getting stung on the neck by a hornet, it was a reeeeeally fun time!!! i'd never been stung by a flying insect before and my dad is super allergic to stings(he looks like the toxic avenger if he gets stung near his face), so i rushed to find some benadrool just in case. that had me knocked out on the way from six flags to tgi fridays where we ate dinner in wet clothes. and slept on the way home. twas nice.
the end.

oh wait now that i look at it more, its pretty much identical to a ride here called the hurricane, jsut diff colors
much fun hurts your neck with all the spinning though
remember sitting next to some chick, her tits were going everywhere
 
Woooo, sounds like you had fun.

Eric and I went to the one here last week ...I'm with Derick *barf*. I never ride any rides cos I have vertigo real bad and don't want to get dizzy. But Eric made me go on some *looks at her bruise from Runaway Mountain* grrrrr. We had fun though, I hadn't been since I was 12
 
Cara! awesome! I'm happy youg uys can have fun despite the little things that happened! always loved people like that! (as oppose to: "oh no i got stung, ok lets go home im moody now") 6 flags is AWESOME!

And this is our semi new rollercoaster, made entirely out of wood. It's called Balder. Voted the best wooden one in the world.
