First of all let me get something straight. This is a JOURNAL not a diary. I know what the name of this blog is but when Mom made me this thing I SPECIFICALLY told her to pick a title without the word “diary” in it. Great. Now all I need is for some kid to catch me looking at this website and get the wrong idea.

On April 3rd we got our gold pass to California’s Great America. I will record my theme park experiences over the year. I will also put pictures too.

Anyway, I was surprised with how well Planet Snoopy was themed. My mom is sick of Spongebob 3D but we rode it anyway. I wish they had a Boo Blasters on Boo Hill. Why didn’t Great America build it? Email me if you have a guess.

Anyway on to the pictures:













Snoopy Has Come
(He has come indeed! Alleluia!)










                                                  I never outgrow the Woodstock Express



I rode Loggers Run alone as my parents weren’t in the mood to get drenched.



















Flight Deck



The Grizzly









The Demon

Guess which of these 3 I enjoy the most?






The burgers at Joe Cool Café could be named “Lucy’s Crabbie Patties”.

    Hey Ben looks cool! I'm sad I didn't get to go to Great America this year, but it looks like you managed to have a fun time without me. I'll guess that Flight Deck was your favorite out of the 3. Am I right?

    Ben, this is a really neat blog! Too bad we can't view it at school... for some reason, it's blocked! Let me guess, is Boo Blasters a dark ride? As for your favorite ride, I would think it's....Flight Deck! The reason why? Well, I'm just going with David, since I think he would know. :)

    Flight Deck is right! I won't post another update until my next theme park visit. Hopefully in May. I'm glad you both liked my blog.

    Ben, I'm glad I found your blog journal! Since I don't know much about theme parks, it should be informative. I like the characters and think I would like to eat Lucy's hamburgers! Thanks, Aunt Molly

    Ben, we are looking forward to reading your post about next weekend's visit. I wonder if you have read the Kingdom Keepers series by Ridley Pearson. Five teens go to work at Disneyworld as holographic hosts and are quickly drawn into a fight between the forces of good and evil.

    Jack is looking forward to seeing your mom and Mary next weekend. Maybe we'll all converge sometime this summer. Have fun! *Aunt Sharyn and Cousin Claire
