Six Flags Magic Mountain, Los Angeles

Just look at that.. The sight that greeted me as I walked towards the main entrance got me riled up for an entire day of FUN! I purposely went there on the eve of Christmas so that I can have a relatively empty park. *evil grin* As you can tell, I am a rollercoaster fanatic. (And seriously, at that time Singapore didn't have any coasters worth riding.. and there's only ONE now)

I walked around, tried every ride.. And even got seconds and thirds for quite a lot of the coasters. All these before 5pm when the park closes during winter. First ones thru the entrance and the last ones out..

The best tip I can give is to continously scream that you're a SINGLE RIDER. I took the Goliath thrice in a row without ANY waiting time. The first ride I went in, someone noticed that I was alone and shouted for me while I clambered from the back to get the ride. And after I just kept running and taking.. AWESOME!!

The Goliath is the traditional rollercoaster ride. Dead drops, etc.. No 360 deg turns, no flipping s upside down. I love it.. Imagine going down at the speed of 85MPH in a carrigae with no overhead secure safety catch. It was those lock bar against your lap. YEAH!!!

Look at that drop!!

Tatsu was amazing. Legs dangling, we're rotated to "fly" like Superman.. And this is the new-age rollercoaster ride. Swerving, rotating, upside down... All these at the top speed of 62MPH..

It was a REALLY fun ride

I totally did not regret choosing this over Disneyland. Don't get me wrong.. Disneyland is great. But I have been there before (2 days for a kid was HEAVEN) and wanted to try something more adult this time around.
