Rye Playland is cool. But for a day of fun.. Its a lot of money.. Its $35.00 for a 6 hour ride pass. But the lines were short and they have a lot of rides.. So its ok.

Great especially during PLJ night when it's all free.
I can even "ride" the cheap mirror thing!

I like the atmosphere of this park on Long Island Sound. The Dragon has great length and the very cool dragon head. The Derby Racers are a must ride cause they only exist with Cedar Point's and another park. Super Flight is the top billed modern inversion ride. I wish the chest pad wasn't so hard on me! Makes me uncomfortable.

^ The third Derby Racer would be at Blackpool... And its right next to Valhalla and Nash. I wish I had rode it in 2006 so I could have been on all 3.. Oh well.
