Cedar Point - Grand Pavilion upstairs dining area

Cedar Point

Cedar Point has set the bar pretty high for amusement park experiences. Not only in terms of thrill…read morerides but in ride operator staff too. While in line I had several opportunities to chat with the staff and discovered many of them were college interns or attending an attraction management program. They take ride safety very seriously and their pre launch announcements sounded like they actually enjoyed their role. My must-ride recommendations are Millennium Force and Steel Vengeance. Get a day locker pass that lets you move from attraction to attraction. Although some rides provide complimentary lockers they are very small. The Farmhouse Kitchen and Grill had the best food at the park. A bonus was my Prestige Pass from a different home park worked for their VIP Lounge. They offer complimentary snacks such as cookies and chips.

It's been 20 years since my last visit. Same place, but different. This visit was late August 2026…read more Maverick is where White Water Landing used to be. Ocean Motion is where Demon Drop used to be. Gatekeeper is where Disaster Transport and Space Spiral used to be. Valravn is where a theater and some flat rides used to be. Mean Streak was rebuilt into Steel Vengeance. The Grand Pavillion and Wild Mouse are where Wicked Twister used to be. Siren's Curse is where a stage and the last WildCat used to be. Steel Vengeance, Top Thrill 2 and Siren's Curse have metal detectors. You're forced to leave the contents of your pockets in a locker. Thankfully I got to keep my belt and glasses (with Cedar Flags branded retention strap). I get why. The Bozos that would toss stuff at the opposing train on Dueling Dragons / Dragon Challenge at Universal Florida really ruined it for everybody. I'm surprised I didn't have to sign a pledge not to try to high five the other train before boarding Gemini. The variety and quality of the food has improved. The daily dining plan they occasionally offer is a value if you're staying open to close. I would't call any of it health food, but there are some not terrible options for those watching their figure or trying to avoid the punishment for putting on weight courtesy of Steel Vengeance. Speaking of Steel Vengeance...I thought Skyrush aka Thighcrush at Hershey Park hurt. It's got nothing on Steel Vengeance. I thought Intamin was full of nutters, but RMC makes them look stone cold sane. Hershey Park supposedly fixed Skyrush, Cedar Point needs to do something about Steel Vengeance. Or put up signs, sell thigh cushions, or retrain the ride ops. Something. It was like getting repeatedly hit in the thighs with a baseball bat. I kid you not. I used to be a bit pudgy, but I lost 100 pounds and got in shape. I have a 32 inch waist. Maybe that's my problem, I lost too much thigh fat. Not that it helped on Skyrush. I don't know if I got a mad stapler ride op or what, but it was one and done for me. Was in the front row even, not the back. I had trouble walking afterwards. I was so sore I couldn't enjoy Millennium Force or Top Thrill 2. I should have gone to First Aid and shook them down for ice packs. Speaking of Top Thrill 2. New trains. They still fuss about folks putting arms up pre-launch, but of course everybody still does it after the launch cycle starts. Anybody with any sense puts their arms down before going over the top, especially in the back. If you are hanging out of your seat when you hit that first twist on the way down, you're going to get a good crack to your spine. The new trains just have lap bars. Have they been messing with the belts on Millennium Force? I thought they were as short as they could get but apparently not. The ride ops pretty much do them for you now to save time. As well as the lap bar. If you've got a 36+ inch waist, good luck. It seems assigned seating is the rule rather than the exception. It can be tough to collect a front or back seat unless it's right after open or right before close. Unless you find a cool ride op and the platform isn't full. Fast Lane / Fast Lane Plus is pretty much required now unless the park is deserted. The more crowded the park is the more expensive it is. They even admit it, the non-fastlane queue for TT2 is labelled 'standby'. All season drink bottles have been a thing for a while now. If you're going to sell them you need to have a spot to leave them. Had to dump them for Blue Streak. Seems to be a legacy Cedar Fair Issue, legacy Six Flags has bottle holders almost everywhere. I'll admit I'm getting old, but this trip just hurt. My thighs, my back and my wallet. Were the massive thrills worth it? Possibly not. Reminds me of the time I stayed at the Hotel Breakers for a whole week when the original Top Thrill opened, trying to catch a ride. I was not successful. This trip feels like a dud, too, but for different reasons. I'll be back, if only because I can hear my younger self telling me I've gotten old and soft. I'll have a better plan and will see about losing more weight. I've got the waist size I graduated high school with, but a few extra pounds, and as much as I wish it were so, not all of it is muscle. Potential visitors, learn from my mistakes. Cedar Point, put more padding on those restraints on Steel Vengeance and maybe some kind of indicator to prevent stapling. Invest in some drink bottle holder stands, too. Go tour the legacy Six Flags parks Cedar Flags didn't sell and see how handy those are.

What a beautiful day for the annual St. Jude Walk at the Detroit Zoo. It's a perfect leisurely walk…read morewhile taking in all the sights and animal habitats. The Kidney Foundation uses the Detroit Zoo also for their annual walk. This was a great time seeing all the animals. There have been times that the animals have been hiding or sleep in the past. Today was the day that they were all up and at them for all to see. "Lions & tigers & bears, oh my!" We got to see the African tiger, lions, rhinos, grizzly bears, peacocks, buffalo, ostriches, monkeys, etc. Everyone was out for a photo op! If you haven't gone in awhile, you owe it to yourself to treat you and your family to a wonderful outing. The holiday visits in December is another great time for families.

DATE & TIME: August 9, 2026…read more10:00am, they were VERY busy. Tickets are time slotted so please be mindful of that when ordering! AMBIANCE: Pretty standard zoo, was not as big as we thought it was going to be. Lots of vegetation which was nice. They have plenty of bathrooms (but no AC so they are hot!). Many places to eat and street carts throughout. Decor is pleasant. They have several water misters throughout that you can walk through to cool off (that was a nice touch). The setup is a little hard to navigate (you can miss stuff or have to back track a lot). STAFF: CASHIER: friendly enough (she wasn't rude). OTHER (photo takers, exhibit workers, food vendors): All were very friendly, no complaints. CLEANLINESS: All seemed kept up fairly well. BATHROOMS: Several spread throughout pretty well. All indoors but NO air conditioning so they are very hot and muggy! Most have several stalls so not a long wait. PRICES: $21/ea ticket if ordered online (pricing changes with day you go!!!) $8 for parking on their private lots. PARKING: Amble amount on their private lots. OVERALL THOUGHTS: It's a nice zoo to go to once (unless you live in the area). Pricey tickets and pay for parking. Half of the animals were no where to be seen (maybe being so warm??), so that was a bummer and ones that were out were sleeping tucked away so hard to see. Navigating the layout was a bit tricky (lots of backtracking, to not miss things). VERY busy. WOULD I RETURN? No, once was enough for this zoo.

Hi there. Just wanted to give a shout out to Marissa…read more I had friends waiting outside yesterday, helping me carry gifts and leftover decor, etc. from the birthday party we had for my 5yr old son... So, my husband took care of the bill and all, but I didn't get to give a review and I just wanted to say, "Thank you" to Marissa and the whole team at Bounce It Up. She did a great job hosting and we were so very pleased with the whole event and the way things went. When we arrived, we carried our stuff back to the big party room on the right side and then I took my kids to use the restroom... When I got out, Marissa and my husband were already setting everything up and I loved how she knew what she was doing and took initiative to get the job done. I was nervous about having only 15 minutes to set up before our guests arrived (I asked them to come at 10:45am to avoid waiver signing delays, etc.), but the whole room was set up and looked fantastic for the party! I also wanted to mention that every time I called with questions prior to the party, (which was about 4-5x's), everyone I spoke with was so helpful and they always encouraged me to call back with any questions I had. I just felt like this party could not have gone any better, really... and I'm so grateful to all the staff at Bounce It Up for truly helping us to make my son's birthday so special for him. We will definitely recommend you to others!! Ps: We didn't order from your middle eastern vendor this time, so I'm sad not to have tried out their food... but the pizza, subs and salad from the other vendors were great! All the guests were asking where the food came from. So, thank you, again!! Blessings, CD

This place is okay I guess it gets three stars. The staff is young. But they tried to help for…read moresure. My nephews birthday was here and he was turning four. No staff watches the kid areas to make sure no one's being to rough. After a certain time it looks like older kids come and the get a little rough not worrying the little kids are in the area so probably will never return. But the kids definitely had a good time.
