Went to Magic Mountain Today..

My friend Trisanna called me yesterday to say she had a free friend pass to Magic Mountain and wanted to know if I wanted to go today with some friends.

I thought it would be good for me to get out of the house and spend the day having fun.. riding roller coasters.. hanging out.. and all for free!

The hit of the day came at 7 o'clock this evening. We had time to wait in line for one last roller coaster and so we went for the big time. Tatsu. On this one, you sit down and then pull the harness over your head and that locks down your body but it also triggers harnesses for around your feet. .. so you are completely strapped down. Then when everyone is secured they pull your feet up and you stare straight at the ground. It was fun when that happened because once the feet get pulled up you are ready to 'fly' and everyone still waiting in line starts whooping.

So, it was scary! You go up and up and up and up and all the while you are staring straight down.. and placing all of your trust and all of your life into the grips of the harness that is holding you in. It was crazy. People would say either "That was so great." or "Never again, will I ride that." I would be one to say it was great.

Did you know it now costs $15.00 to park your car? A large soda is now $3.99. The souvenier bottle is $8.99 with 99 cent refills. I haven't been to Magic Mountain in 4 years. $15 to park a car?!! I hate that.
