Great Adventure

April 26th was a day this will go down in my books. Great Adventure is a Six Flags amusement park in New Jersey and on April 26th our company took over. The park was closed to the public but was open to our company and our 400 closest friends. It was unbelievable. This is how the day went...
The bus picked us up in the city around 1:00pm and the adventure began. When we arrived in the park there were a total of 4 buses and 7 cars in the parking lot. It was empty. It was crazy.

There was a small ribbon cutting ceremony. The tall man in the grey sweater is my boss. The little girl in the pink stripes is his daughter Lucy. She helped cut the ribbon and it took a little effort.

All the Loony Toon characters were there. Here is the crazy part everything was open and everything was FREE. The food... FREE. The games...Free. The pictures...Free. It was so fun. We had ice cream, Cotton candy, more ice cream, popcorn, more ice cream and really anything we could get our hands on.

We went from ride to ride and it was almost creepy how quiet it was at the park. Sometimes you wouldn't even see other people. It was deserted. But it was super fun.

It is embarrassing to say but I almost got sick to my stomach. I guess I am getting old. After about 8 roller coasters I was done for the evening. I also learned to appreciate lines because it gives my stomach time to settle down and get ready for the next ride.

We had an awesome special concert just for us. It was Ali and Ajay. (Don't worry I didn't know who they were either, Disney special) They are sisters that sing and play instruments. After the concert we ran around and played as many games as we could and carried home arm fulls of oversizes stuffed animals.

The end of the day was topped off with a fire works display. It was a perfect ending.
