Also my car rental return go from $800NZ to $1100 just by dropping it off at Newark vs Baltimore airport. So will make my way back down from SFGadv and hit up SFA for Superman and any other bonus creds. Flight at night to San Diego for SWSD the next morning.

You're doing Universal March 30 and 31. So You're going back again?
MestnyiGeroi
Never mind last comment about Universal. Hadn't seen all your messages yet.
MartyNZ
Then Knotts and MM again for rerides on GhostRider and X2 etc. Also West Coast racers i missed by about a month last visit. Anyway, after all that then back to NZ hopefully with a negative covid test. Otherwise stuck in US for a few more weeks!
MartyNZ
You'll see most parks i'm allowing two days. Imagine if i turn up to Dollywood for example and Lightning Rod isn't operating for the day. I'd be devastated!
MartyNZ
Oh yeah another thing. SFOG being missed because i'll go there next trip when Aireforce One opens.

How many of these parks have you never been to?
MestnyiGeroi
I was looking to see if I might be able to join you at some point (assuming you'd be OK with that), but I don't see a possibility right now, looking at the schedule.
MestnyiGeroi
I have a great job for coasters in that I have two months off in the summer, one week off in February, and one week off in April. But unfortunately, workdays are rigidly fixed otherwise -- meaning, I can't just take a day off when I want.
MestnyiGeroi
That means I'm restricted to weekends for the most part. But you're not hitting my local park (SFGAdv) on a weekend, and while I might dream of jetting off to BGT for a weekend, you're also hitting that during the week.
MestnyiGeroi
So, if you were open to my joining you at some point, I don't see anything I could commit to now. But keep in touch as your trip approaches and we'll see.
MartyNZ
Of that list most are new parks for me except the Florida and LA parks. So been to these before that i'm visiting again for new standout rides : BGT,IOA,SWO,Funspots,SFMM,Knotts
MartyNZ
I've got a video call meeting now so i'll "be back" in an hour!
MestnyiGeroi
As for my week off in April, I'm flying off to the UAE on April 15th.
MestnyiGeroi
Oh, wow! A lot of great parks are new to you then! I'd love to join you as you take your first ride on the world's greatest coaster: El Toro!
MartyNZ
Yeah i've never been to the east coast parks. I was in Washington DC for 4 days a few years ago for a conference but couldn't find time to add a few park visits in.
MartyNZ
Would be really cool to meet up but the only weekend day i can potentially hit SFGAdv is on Easter Sunday...otherwise i need to miss HersheyPark. I can imagine El Toro being my number 1 coaster. I'll be so sad if its not open by then though. The park did say they will open by Spring. but it might not mean first few days of spring.
MartyNZ
This is what makes this trip such a logistical nightmare. Basically have to decide between SDGadv or Hersheypark on the weekend. If i choose SFGadv then no Hershy for me.
