Special Note

Although as of 2003, I have been riding coaster for 29 years, I consider it my 25th year as a coaster enthusiast. Several personally notable events occurred during June of 2003. This was my first "multi-park" trip, taken with the specific objective of visiting five parks. Coincidentally, my 99th coaster was the CP Gemini racing coaster, ridden one day before its 25th anniversary. 2003 also say my biggest coaster vacation with a total of 108 rides on 46 different coasters (44 new) at 6 parks over a period of eight days. One of the six parks was a return visit to "The park that started it all!"-Kings Island where almost all the coasters were new (except two) since my previous visit, 25 years ago. Thanks to a suggestion from an A.C.E. member that I met at HW, I added Indiana Beach to the original schedule of five parks on the trip.
