Our small city’s 4th of July Celebration was last night, but on the actual 4th of July, we just typically hang around with family and friends, not really doing much other than socializing (which is great too…).
This year we decided to do something different by going to an Amusement Park called “Cedar Point” on the 4th of July instead! Now you might think that going on a holiday to such a place would be busy, but according to friends of my wife, it’s typically un-crowded on holidays.
Since we haven’t gone to Cedar Point yet this year,we figured why not give it a try! We’re hoping my wife’s friends were right and all the rides have unusually short lines! If the rides do have short lines, we should be able to ride more of the rides that we want to ride, effectively giving us more bang for our buck. Of course the “bang” reference is also do to the fact that at 10:30 pm EST, they are also going to fire off fireworks.
Never heard of “Cedar Point”?
Cedar Point is an amusement park that is known for its large roller coasters. It’s much more of an adrenaline kind of park than an amusement park like Disney World. Most of the middle states in the US, know about this amusement park and frequently go there in the summer.
Hope you (and my family too) have a great Fourth of July!

We always got together with friends and family on July 4th usually at our house. You could see multiple fireworks from our backyard. Nice memories.
Sounds like you live at a perfect spot for the holiday!
We had a great fourth, and it sounds like you did as well.. That roller coaster looks absurd!
Unfortunately, amusement parks, outside of Disney World, have kind of lost their appeal for us, with a baby in tow..
My kids (8 and 12) loved them. The previous year my daughter (8) was too young to ride most of the roller coasters, but this year she had a ball!
Spent the day off with family. That coaster looks too extreme for my blood. Insane! Did you ride that thing?
Actually I didn’t get too, it broke down 4 times and it actually shut down while I was in line…
We walked down to the beach and watched tourists, condos and the city shoot of fireworks. It was cool and a good time. We’re thinking of going to Disney later this year though.
Sounded like a great time!
