Disneyland-part 1/Update

The weather didn't ruin our vacation to Disneyland, so we had a great time. I have 2 announcements to make.
1. Due to a busy schedule, we won't be able to go to Gilroy Gardens Holiday Lights.
2. I got my 1st ever season pass to Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.
On to the photos.

I got a birthday call from Goofy here.

Halloween Haunt

On October 22 I went to Halloween Haunt at California's Great America. The event consists of 15 Attractions. Here's me and the Overlord.

There are 4 shows- Bang! Primevil Percussion, Dave Hill's Haunted Hypnotics, Shocking Sideshow of Freaks and Fangs (which contains tons of swearing).

There's also Black Widow's Cavern, which is Loggers Run with special effects.

The 4 scare zones are Dead Man's Cove, The Gauntlet, Underworld Alley, and Witch Doctor's Trail.

Then of course there's the 6 mazes:

CarnEvil- New scenes in this 3-D haunt.

Club Blood- Awesome lighting. We even went into the old Pictorium.

CornStalkers- My friend, Trina, had to hold me for this one.

SlaughterHouse- There was a person who looked like part of a table in here.

Toy Factory- The song sounded like Alvin and the Chipmunks.

WereWolf Canyon- A neat tribute to the former Camp GonnaGetcha haunt is in here.

These are some Maze entrances

That's me and Trina with our 3-D glasses in front of CarnEvil 

Check back for pictures from Gilroy Gardens Holiday Lights and Holidays at Disneyland!

Pirates Of Emerson

I went to POE (Pirates of Emerson Haunt - in Pleasanton, http://piratesofemerson.com/home.htm)  this weekend and it was so awesome!

 I'll tell you about each house
Manimal Lab- One of the staff members of this haunt offered me some meat but I rejected him.
Night Scare Before Christmas- A really creative theme; my favorite house of the night!
Killbilly Cabin- We went outdoors at one point!

Pirates of Emerson- This haunt featured a water effect.

Dig of the Dead- There was a spinning tunnel here.
Bilge Rat Maze- They had killer music here.

(Some of the nice people we met there!)

I recommend this to those who don't mind getting scared, and it's kept its awesomeness after 18 years in Fremont.

Great America-September

I just went to Great America last month. Trina brought her niece, Syria, along for this trip.

The Slaughterhouse haunt has the entrance put up.

Firefall is one of my favorite rides at the park. The fire effects weren't working when I rode.

Halloween Haunt decorations were going up. I'll cover it soon.

One of the scarezones is Dead Man's Cove.

Trina took her first ride on Survivor The Ride. She screamed throughout.

Thanks for reading. Brace yourself for updates from Great America's Halloween Haunt and The Haunting Fields.

Waterworld and Boardwalk

I went to Santa Cruz and Waterworld recently. I hadn't been to Waterworld in years. I rode the Tornado, Big Kahuna and Honululu Halfpipe.

I went to Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk as well. The Merry-Go-Round and the Giant Dipper are national historic landmarks.

The Sea Swings is one of their newest rides.

Cavemen visit the boardwalk. This one prefers the Sky Glider....

....but most prefer the Cave Train Adventure.

One fast update. The rock band MyX will perform at Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay, Florida. The lead singer Sylvie is SOOO hot!

ACF

I visited the Alameda County Fair. This year they announced The Pirates of Emerson are relocating here. I've never been there.

I rode the Wacky Worm twice, against my brother's will.

The Giant Wheel is my parent's favorite ride.

Another coaster I rode is the Pole Position.

2 more I went on was 1001 Nachts and the Oktoberfest Wave Swinger.

That's about it for now!

Great America 2

On Monday I went back to Great America. We were going on tuesday but it was my mom's 25th anniversary.

I went on the Loggers Run again, but Mom went along for the ride this time.

I went on Flight Deck as my last ride.

My first ride was Carousel Columbia.

Star Tower is the 2nd tallest attraction in the park. The tallest is Drop Tower.

Celebration Swings was one of the several new attractions for 2001.

Barney Oldfield Speedway is one of the opening year attractions.

I seem to be the only one who loves Grizzly.

Here are 3 photos from Woodstock Express to wrap this up.
