Cedar Point

After returning home from several weeks in Florida, I didn't get to sleep in my own bed for more than a single night before I was off on another trip. This time, it was up north to Cedar Point, the Coaster Capital of the World.

A fraction of the park's skyline, which consists of over half-a-dozen 200+ feet tall attractions

The trip, taken with a moderate sized group, consisted of a lot of planking.

An interactive water play area on the park's main midway.

It was my first time visiting in four years, but I had already ridden the majority of the attractions.

The classic Corkscrew, inverting its riders above the park's pathways.

Told ya there was a lot of planking.

Despite its low capacity and high thrill, Power Tower was one of the few attractions without a large line.

A more standard view of Power Tower, with two of the park's coasters in the foreground.

Mantis, a stand-up roller coaster which would be far more fun if it was of the floorless variety.

Mean Streak, one of the park's only two wooden roller coasters.

The back of the park is home to a museum of sorts that highlights Cedar Point's history. Pictured is a model of Mean Streak, which is more fun to look at than it is to ride the real thing.

"So Kings Island, you've won the 'World's Best Kids' Area' a few times? Cute."

Millennium Force, arguably the park's main attraction.

Its only true competition is Top Thrill Dragster, a 420-foot, 120 mph thrill ride.

Setting sun as we head out...

...not without another go at planking, of course.

Highlights from Kings Island next, then a trip to Indiana Beach before returning to Florida. Comments and Recommendations welcome and appreciated.
