Matt Kaiser Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Thanks! And yeah, definitely don't go within like a few mile radius of Rutgers. haha Especially rt. 18 and 287. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 Driving back home from Dorney today I saw something I really wasn't expecting this time of year, snow. For a few minutes of driving it was 36 degrees and snowing in the middle of May. It was like the opposite of that 70 degree day in December on a Saturday when I went to Holiday in the Park.

29yrswithaGApass Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 ^Wow! And to think Hurricane Harbor opens next weekend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) ^Wow! And to think Hurricane Harbor opens next weekend! That is crazy! Jackson, NJ is usually a little warmer than Allentown, PA. BTW the forecast isn't good for HH opening weekend, Sat will only be 61 and rainy. Sun will be sunny but borderline with a high of 70 which is cool for a waterpark. Edited May 17, 2016 by The Master Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Kaiser Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Ended up getting there early and got to sit 6 rows from the President of the United States! Regardless of political opinion, it's an awesome and unforgettable experience to see what seems like every state trooper, sheriff, police officer, secret service agent, etc., followed by all the huge helicopters flying in, and to have a sitting president give the commencement address. PS We should tell the park that I didn't even have to take off my belt to get past the Secret Service security! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

29yrswithaGApass Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 The other day I streamed "The Revenant" from Amazon. During playback, for one brief second, the picture froze, flashed the word loading, and then started again almost instantly. Two days later I got the following email from Amazon: We noticed that you recently experienced poor video playback on Amazon Video. We're sorry for the inconvenience, and have issued you a refund for the following rental(s) and amount(s): $5.99 - The Revenant I was impressed!

jdc12192 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Finally watched the orginal 'Psycho' a few weeks ago as I've been watching bates motel for some time now.... Have to say was impressed for the way it seemed to follow and go along with the movie. And as for the finale last night. OMG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 That was a good season finale! They were talking about putting the tree up for the past three weeks - glad to see they did it. With only one more season to go it should be interesting to see how they bridge the gap between the series and the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertleax Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Well my son got a second concussion Tuesday playing football in gym and was taken by Ambulance to Abington Memorial Hospital. Along with the concussion he also got a facial contusion and after blowing his nose his entire right side face swelled up with air and/or fluid having to take him right back to the ER. Went to an ENT doctor yesterday (on his 16th birthday) and Cat Scan looked OK along with his hearing, eyes and nose... Too bad... was planning to hit GADV this Sunday with him but now he is "grounded" from coaster riding for a while... which means I AM GROUNDED ALSO!

jdc12192 Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 Does anyone know of any medicine to help motion sickness or that you can take to prevent it? Ex- cant handle spinning rides like I used to and now feel the effects of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viper26 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 So our school does two field trips for our grade. The first is Morey's Piers (only doing one pier) and the second is this amusement park and arcade in Mount Laurel called the Funplex which is adding a decent water park addition this year (I feel that Mount Laurel feel like a mini Wisconsin Dells now, but would feel like one in the future.).

Yoshi Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 I didn't know Funplex was adding so many water park attractions. The constrictor slide they are adding is one of my favorite slides at Wildwater Kingdom. I have been wanting to get there to ride the coaster but haven't gotten around to it.

RC98 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 There's a smaller location of the Funplex in East Hanover about 10 minutes away from me that got that slide tower this past year. I haven't ridden the slides yet but they look pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper26 Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 I believe both locations are the same size. I actually went to the Mt. Laurel location last year, not for a school trip, and their water park was a small pool up to 6 feet deep and a mediocre play area with two 20 foot tall slides. It sucked, but the water park expansion is well deserved as it can compete with CoCo Keys which is five miles away which is also in Mt. Laurel.

scott Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 I was always looking for a red car or truck that had Rolling Thunder written in the window to know you were at the park. That decal is cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
