Back in the 50s you could find your thrill on blueberry hill, today it takes a little more. Probably a mountain. A magic one!

Ooops, I did it again! Armed with season pass and coupon book we went to Sixflag Magic Mountain. Because of Father's Day I could bring in a friend for free. Besides of the $15 for parking, the $25 for lunch, the $4 per soda and some other extras it was a pretty good deal! ;)

We rode the most important coasters, had some extra soaking fun at some riverboat ride and enjoyed Bugs Bunny, Duffy Duck and the others
at the parade. The weather has been perfect, of course, it's still Southern California!

I will not post any additional pictures. The thrill of a coaster can't really be captured anyways.

You will find some additional information, more pictures and even videos on their website.]]> zeek Mon, 18 Jun 2007 05:10:50 UTC http://www.capuzza.com/detail.php?ID=113475#C0 http://www.capuzza.com/detail.php?ID=113475 http://www.capuzza.com/html_detail.php?ID=113373

The Palm Springs hotel, which we found through Expedia turned out to be a really nice polynesian style motel. There is a huge pool, which is open until midnight, with a bar right next to it. Sourrounded by real fire torchs and Tiki masks for the perfect ambient. Actually I'm sitting on one of the lawn chairs and enjoying the warm (but not too hot) night while typing this. If you ever come to Palm Springs, give this motel a try. Check out their website. The rooms are pretty cool and up to date too.

We've spent the day at Knott's Soak City, by far the best water park I've ever been to! "Pacific Spin", the ride with the big funnel, is definately worth a try! Hint: Buy your tickets at Carl's Jr., they're 8 bucks below the regular admission for non-california residents and still 3 dollars below the so-cal residents admission.

Tomorrow we'll end our road trip and drive back home. weather.com forecasts a cooler but all sunny day for Santa Ana.]]> zeek Tue, 12 Jun 2007 04:40:25 UTC http://www.capuzza.com/detail.php?ID=113003#C0 http://www.capuzza.com/detail.php?ID=113003
