Magic Mountain

Two days after my birthday visit to D-land, my brother, Brady and myself took a little trip to Magic Mountain. For the last few months Brady has been wanting to go to Magic Mountain and ride some killer roller coasters. I'm always up for roller coaster rides (I even took a trip out to Ohio with my friend Amy to ride some to the best roller coasters ever!)

It ended up being a great day. It started out a little hairy when Brady almost lost his half off ticket. If he didn't find it we would have ended up paying full price, who wants to do that. Luckly Brady was inspired to go back to a railing he was leaning on and look at the plants behind him because this is where his ticket was laying.

Now that we were in the park we found ourselves on our 5th ride in just under 2 hours. We realized the importance of waiting in lines. Both of us had headaches and needed a few minutes to regroup before hitting the rest of the big coasters.

The main reasons we came to Magic Mountain was for X2 and Tatsu. We found out the long lines were going to be for these two rides so we ran over to X2. When we got there the line wait was only 1 hour 45 minutes. This was actually a short wait and well worth it. I had been on it once before and could not wait for my second time. IT WAS UNBELIEVEABLE! I loved it. It was sooo good that Brady found himself trying to control his breathing when it was over. Next it was over to Tatsu. In our first pass of Tatsu it was closed. While waiting in line for X2 we saw some of the trains running. We headed on over and it was open. With only a 45 minute wait to was time to fly and fly we did. The best part was the inverted loop, unforgetable!

We also made some friends (check her out in the photos).
