Favorite them park has to be Disneyland.

They just opened Tower of Terror at Disney California Adventure.  Its just a little bit different than the Florida version, but it's still probably the best ride there.

But my favorite ride will always be Pirates of the Carribbean.

I haven't been to all that many theme parks.

- Canada's Wonderland
- Walt Disneyworld
- MGM Studios
- Epcot Centre
- Universial Studios (both parks)

However, my favourite ride is the Aerosmith Rollercoaster.  Holy cow... talk about intense acceleration!!!!  I can't believe I was talked into going on that ride 2x.  I don't think I'd ever ride it again.  It was too crazy fast. 

Sorry... when it comes to rides, I am a bit of a wuss Smiley

My favorite was when Paramount's Great America was Mariott's Great America in the 1980's/early 90's. I went there quite a few times, and probably my favorite was The Edge. Four people are in a cage and it takes you way up high, and then a huge freefall. Eerie ride. The cage felt like a coffin to me. It was actually a coffin for some people, because some people were killed on this ride. It is no longer at the theme park. Another fave is Top Gun. A black coaster where your feet just dangle out. Really fast, and it was built over some pond, and at certain points in the ride, you come very close to skimming the water. Another favorite, and most people who have been there loved it, was The Tidal Wave. Just a basic coaster, and after doing loops, it went in reverse and brought you back to the start. They replaced it for one of their newer rides.

They also had the best $9 plate of nachos I ever ate. hihi

Boulder Dash at Lake Compounce in good ole Bristol, CT (one of the best wooden coasters in the world)

Spidey 3d at Universal

Everest at Disney's Animal Kingdom (we got a sneak peak ride back in late Jan)

Kraken at Seaworld:Orlando.

My favorite Theme Park would have to be one of the Disney parks down in Orlando...too tough for me to choose a favorite.

Disney World is nice, but always over crowded. The Six Flaggs place is fun too.

The best rides - Tower of Terror and The Mind Bender and that ship that swings all the way around.

I don't like rides, they scare me nervous.. Undecided

What about the bumper cars? Or the senior citizen train ride? Those are fun.

You gotta go during the "right" time of year.  The busy season (school breaks, summers, etc) are just maddeningly busy.

We've found that the end of Sept- Early Oct and the week AFTER Thanksgiving til about a week BEFORE X-mas are great times to go.  There's some times in march and april that aren't bad, too...you just gotta time your visits to miss the school breaks.

It's still busy, but during those times we never wait more than 10 min or so for most of the rides.

Yeah, I have Season Passes for Universal Studios. If you check to see when they have blackout dates for the lower level passes, those are the days you dont want to go anyway because it is crowded. There have been many times I have gone up in the morning and went through both Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure easily in one day.

I've been to a handful of theme parks:
-Dorney Park (Pennsylvania)
-Disney (Florida)
-Six Flags (New Jersey)
-Universal Studios (Florida)
-Busch Gardens (Virgina?)

I think that's all of them. Well my favorite rollercoaster rides have been Dueling Dragons, Hulk at Universal, Kingda Ka (sp?) at Six Flags, and I loved the Aerosmith one at MGM in Disney. I'm a big coaster fan!
