I played hooky from work today to go to Magic Mountain with the guys.

Superheroes

Six Flags Magic Mountain is a roller coaster based theme park, about 2.5 hours from where I live. It has some amazing rides, but it's certainly no Disneyland with regard to comfort, cleanliness, and crowd control. The last time I went was roughly 12 years ago, and I swore I would never go there again.

Well, it turns out the trick is to go on a weekday during the off season. And the extra-mega-bonus trick, courtesy of [livejournal.com profile] sluggobear, is to go right before Christmas while everybody else is out Christmas shopping.

Magic Mountain

We sure had a lot of fun. I rode a ride there called X2 for the first time. People told me it is the best ride ever, and after riding it, I agree. I screamed like a little girl in ways I did not know I was capable of screaming.

I'm back on the Magic Mountain train. I love it. If the guys do this again next year, I'm way in.
