Dear Folks Who Are Wondering What It’s Like To Go To A Theme Park That Just Reopened:
It’s weird. Every bit of it is weird.
As indicated in my last post, we took Eddie to Six Flags for Father’s Day. “We” meaning “Gideon and I” because Dominic didn’t get off work.
🙄
Anyway, I had to make a reservation for us to go. That’s new.
Also new:
· Hand-washing stations outside the entrance
· Temperature scans on the way in (not sure that helps if people are asymptomatic, but ok)
· The requirement for everyone to wear a mask at all times
· Social distancing in the queue
· Social distancing on the rides themselves
· Having to scream/laugh through a mask (but that might just be my problem)
· Hand sanitizer everywhere
So yeah, plenty of changes.
There are some things that haven’t changed:
· Crappy attitudes of the teenaged staff
· Skin-boiling heat with no shade in sight
· Unappetizing food such as a burger with the bun literally dripping butter
· The potential for ride malfunction

Here are the mechanics working on the ride we just exited — the one we were stuck on for 15 minutes.
So it was different, but not so much so that I would stay away. We have to get our membership money’s worth!
Yours in thrills,
Beth
You couldn’t pay me to go to the place even in non-C19 times!

Hahaha! I know: People either love theme parks or hate them.
