Thank you so much for all of your kind birthday wishes! Check out our first ride and review of Top Thrill 2 here ➡️ th-cam.com/video/1llRgt-EBy0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uA_pxbpfpfNfggw4
As an Ohio native we know to skip Cedar Point for most of the month of May. Operations and staffing are issues early in the season every year at Cedar Point. Once schools begin letting out and staffing issues are resolved (usually around June), everything starts to get smoother.
Happy happy birthday! Cedar Point is what started my 'career' in the amusement industry in 2007 when I got to work Raptor for the first time. Although I dragged my 68 year parents on Velocicoaster and Iron Gwazi recently, in their older age I think it was a bit of sensory overload and nothing "hits" like Milennium Force or Dragster and the memories we have as a family at the park. Whenever we'd plan a non CP park trip, my non-enthusiast dad would always be "but are they going to be running 3 trains like CP? Otherwise I don't want to go there - they just do everything better". Night rides on Milennium Force or Dragster with the cheering are some of my favorite times with my family who are otherwise not enthusiasts. From the sounds of it, you've had similar experiences growing up in the UK parks! Makes me happy you're able to truly experience the essence of Cedar Point despite the inevitable rocky opening months each season. Enjoy the rest of your time! And Happy Birthday, Shawn!!! (apologies if its Sean)
You 2 are my favorite people on TH-cam. I went to Cedar Point last weekend for opening day Sat and Sun. Your review video of the Cedar Point Express Hotel is what sold me on booking there. It was perfect for what I needed. Next time I go to Cedar Point I'll have to try Hotel Breakers after seeing your video on it. You guys provide great in-depth information for theme park lovers. So glad you're having an amazing time on Shawn's birthday weekend!
Cedar Point is my home and best park but I could only shake my head and feel for you guys as you went through what I've gone through the last three times I've been there with their terrible operations. Best park, wost operations
You're wearing the only Steel Vengeance shirt I own which I bought 6 years ago and the 1st of 10 coaster shirts I now own. Happy belated birthday again! So much else to say about this video: I LOVED IT! Thanks for posting.
Since you mentioned it I seriously can’t wait to see you guys go to Qiddiya.. that’s going to be awesome to see such a different place through your vlogs and to see falcons flight. Looking forward to it.
That’s what happen for me and my son, we drove to rid TTD when it first opened and it was down so we never got to ride it until 15 years later when my son took me there for Father’s Day and we got to ride it once but then it went down. We also only got one ride on Maverick and VALRAVN before they both went down and not to be ridden again. And then to top it all off, at 7pm there was a power outage for most of the part so we just left to go back to our room. Then I see you all and the same experiences on the rides down and I am glad to say my home park is Kings Island and we have been fortunate on the rides operating. Also, Happy Birthday Shawn!!
Wow Cedar Point... maybe it's not worth travelling from the UK if you can end up having 2 or 3 coasters open. This is a once in a lifetime trip for most.
Been going to Cedar Point since 99 and I've definitely noticed a huge decline in overall operations of the park and rides since then. The 90's and early 2000's were such a great time to visit, since the park was so focused on adding record breaking rides every two years, while at the same time operating them as efficiently as possible to ensure that guests could get on as many rides as possible. These days the park is a more well rounded park with better overall offerings of rides, food, and merch, but there isn't the same focus on running those rides like there was in the past. Glad you were able to get on TT2 and Happy Birthday!
Happy Belated Birthday Shawn 🎉 So Glad that you guys got to ride Top Thrill before the closure 😮 Safe travels with the rest of your trip here in the States 👍
majority of water rides in america don’t open until memorial day weekend which is probably why it wasn’t posted. it’s kinda just known here in america so i get how it seems weird that it’s not on the website. loved the vlog!!
Happy Birthday Shawn!🥳🎢Hope you both had a great day and thanks so much for all the amazing content you guy’s continue to create, it’s because of your channel we’ve definitely got back out there and kept on riding again after a slight hiatus(I’m not 31😀) first rode Magnum XL200 and the original Mean Streak ERT night time riding back in 1993🤔Enjoy the rest of the USA trip👌
Hi Shawn and Charlotte. Glad you had a great birthday Shawn. I can see why you love steel vengeance so much looks amazing. I agree with Charlotte get Rita gone bring a maverick to Alton towers. Fantastic vlog as always guys. Sorry to hear it was a bad start to the day but at least you got plenty of rides in later yo make up for it.
I was reading in the news about tt2 you were so lucky you got on it. Also super lucky in the fact that noone got hurt if it was a technical issue. Happy birthday shawn. Great video
Just bought my tickets to the park, water park, and hotel breakers for my 25th birthday! And the super extra fast passes LOL. It’ll be me and my partners first time in the park, and we are incredibly excited
I never plan a trip to CP in May. They don't have all their summer staff in yet because colleges are still in session. It takes them a few weeks after opening to get all the maintenance issues worked out at the beginning of the season. The upside is the crowds are much lower, but operations tend to be much better once the summer kicks in... from my experience. Also, the Cedar Fair/Six Flags merger still isn't finalized, so that wouldn't have anything to do with it yet, and hopefully it doesn't affect things like that once it is final.
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Good! Glad you're having a good time! I love watching your vlogs from parks I haven't been to yet (gonna get to the UK at some point!), but I also really love watching you guys experience places I have been :)
Hey there Shawn and Charlotte happy birthday to you happy birthday to you and have a wonderful time today and make the most of it today I love you Shawn and Charlotte best TH-camrs out there xxxx
Hey Shawn & Charlotte. Welcome back to the USA🇺🇸Happy birthday🎂Shawn🥳Glad🎉you🎈got 🎁to 🎊ride Top Thrill 2 when you did. Can't wait till you guys come back out to Southern California. Love you guys & have a safe & exciting trip.😊
The dinning plan is so the way to go!! It is the same at Kings Island. I always attached it to my son’s season pass. Crazy not to! Not sure if CP is the same but you are limited to where to eat. Never found that to be a problem though. Just some places aren’t included in the plan. Two people can easily eat off the plan with it being every 90 minutes. Split things or take turns. Our favorite to split was the pizza as you got 2 slices and 2 bread sticks. Perfect. Second was the chicken tenders as you got 3 very large tenders and fries. I was happy with one and a few fries. My appetite isn’t huge regardless and when riding coasters… less is better for me! LOL!!
Hope you had a great birthday Shawn. Cedar Point just an amazing theme park one of the best. Shame Top Thrill has had to close. Steel Vengeance looks amazing what an amazing RMC. Maverick looks pretty good to Charlotte’s favourite. Great vlog TPW crew.👏🏻
What an amazing coaster steel vengeance is, really wish we could get something this good in the UK. Loved those old vlogs at cedar point with Brett & Alex.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHAWN! How to complain about your final park ride on Steve, you can't? Charlotte is correct that you are profiting from the food plan when you think about it. Also, I love Magnum and because of that I think I would love The Big One if I ever get over to the UK! Top Thrill 2 will get going again soon, remember those trains are brand new and have never been used on any other coaster, I cut them some slack but you got to ride it twice ... congratulations! 👍👍👍
Happy Birthday Shawn. I’ve gotten behind watching your videos so having a catch up. You and Charlotte need to do an updated top 10 list each this year! I really want to go to Cedar Point but unfortunately that’s a long way off.
Happy Birthday mate! Glad you got to ride TT2 guys, would suck to go all that way and miss out on it! Hopefully it won't be too long until they can re-engineer the issue.
Love the content! Been following for a while. CP is my home park. With regards to Raptor you would be surprised to hear that the jolt at the end has been there since the beginning! Keep us the great content! Love it!
Happy Birthday Shawn, I am so glad you finally got to stay in Breakers. It is much more affordable early in the season. I will be staying there next week. Hopefully I will get to meet you both during one of your USA trips. I respect the way you run your channel.
M.F. is my favourite ride in the park after SV and perhaps TT2 (which I've not yet ridden; I've ridden TTD but I like Gatekeeper better that TTD). I found the airtime identical in every car of M.F. in every airtime moment except the drop which is best in the back car; row 17 or 18. I'll admit my front car ride was in row 2 (to avoid the lines) but besides the potential wind in the face of the front row: the back car of Millie is the best car on it and delivers one of the world's best drops with it's long trains and T-bar lap bars. That's why it's in my top 5 coaster I've ridden.
Happy Birthday! Glad you had a great day with lots of good food . Bummer about the multiple things closed in the morning but it ended up ok regardless :)
Hey Shawn and Charlotte, congratulations on your recent nuptials btw! I recently began watching your vlogs. I spent like the whole weekend watching them and all morning today. I really appreciate all your energy and your great attitude! I am local to CP but only started going recently as I moved here recently. I just wanted to say that on May 10th, i.w. the day you got to ride TT2. That day, I was basically at work grading and throwing off my back for 20 hours straight (I am basically mad at my students now for making me too busy to go enjoy TT2 lol), I did go out at 11 pm finally and saw the northern lights up north--which is obviously the direction you face when you are looking at the beach. However, my colleague who lived in Sandusky told me that he was glad he stayed down in our rural campus area and saw it because as he approached Sandusky, it got too bright to see anything. So I am curious, did you see anything from the beach side after 11 pm after you did your hotel breakers video?
RELIEVED you got on TT2!! I was just like you Shawn and used to obsess over cedar point as a kid and dream of going. Still never been 😭, hopefully one day
usually i go magnum entrance but if not i go gatekeeper to theback like you said. then maverick and then the farm house food place is right there and opens at 1030. so for food band you start there and in 90 min you eat again...
Great Day One Vlog from Cedar Point Shawn and Charlotte, it is a shame that some of the rides weren’t operational and it’s understandable why Top Thrill 2 is not in operational due to ongoing maintenance
Magnum aged so much better than the Big One as it’s placed beside a fresh water lake, not the salty Irish Sea. It’s literally day and night difference having riding both. Will decide to go in June instead of May now. Seems risky with staff levels and start of season problems. Very bad about that 45 min fast lane queue. Shocking!
Felt bad for you when I heard TT2 was shutdown. Glad to hear you got a few rides on it. Figured you and Charlotte’s favorites are still running, so there’s a silver lining.
We had similar issues last July. Over the two days that we were there rides were going down left right and centre and that meant that the lines for the few rides that were left were horrendous.
honestly surprised a prototype of this magnitude isn’t having even more issues than it currently is. kinda crazy and speaks volumes as to how well under control zamperla has this attraction. i was truly expecting it to have a much rockier start
Yes, most parks in central and eastern USA are not fully functioning until Labor Day weekend being the last weekend in May. The kids being college or high school are not out until mid week the week before so staffing is an issue until then. Most of the water rides feed off the water park so until that opens they are not. Same if you go after Labor Day weekend being end of August though it is still very very warm. Most pools and water parks close after that weekend every summer. Again, a lot is due to staffing as the kids are back in school and not worth the cost of the water parks functioning for a couple to few more week to only be open weekends. People hate that Labor Day is the official last day of summer as it stays very warm all through September. I am actually surprised the pools at the breakers are already open! They must be heated being so far north at this time of the year!
Hey you two. Always enjoy the extensive vlog of your parkcapades. I would say it would be better to insert your povs from the old videos so we don’t have to go searching for them if possible please.
Thank you so much for all of your kind birthday wishes! Check out our first ride and review of Top Thrill 2 here ➡️ th-cam.com/video/1llRgt-EBy0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uA_pxbpfpfNfggw4

May used to be great and fine until covid.
@@smith9808eh may 2018 and 2017 was a nightmare
@aaronswords404 when is the best time do you think?
@@SomunroWe always go for a Monday or Tuesday in mid August. The park is slower and lots of school are closer to opening around then so less kids.
If only they offered decent pay to encourage staff to work there.
Happy happy birthday!
Cedar Point is what started my 'career' in the amusement industry in 2007 when I got to work Raptor for the first time.

I have a picture of my 58 year old mother on Impulse at Knoebels in Pennsylvania. It’s one of my favorite pics 😂
Happy birthday Shawn! Thank you for the best and most wholesome coaster content on TH-cam ❤
Thank you so much!
Honestly, the quirky “car crash” ending on Raptor is one of the reasons I love it. Great ride through and through! 💚🩷🖤

Thanks for talking to us and taking a picture with us after Steel Vengeance it made us happy after TT2 was down on Saturday.
Great to see you!
It was nice to meet you two on Millennium Force today. I thought I had missed you.
Great to see you!

Wow Cedar Point... maybe it's not worth travelling from the UK if you can end up having 2 or 3 coasters open. This is a once in a lifetime trip for most.
It’s definitely worth it, but I do live like 3 hours away, so there’s that
Operations are not normally like this. Not a good start but we had an amazing day in the end!
Happy Birthday Shawn!! And thanks for the great video! We have started planning our Cedar Point trip! Hi Charlotte!❤
Happy Happy birthday!!! I remember 31, well, no I don't, I'm old now! Love Cedar Point, great informative video as always!
Omg! Happy you got to try TT2! After the big L with missing Kingda Ka, this would've been really frustrating
It was amazing!

Thank you! It was an awesome day.
Happy Birthday! You were very lucky to get TT2. It's awesome.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHAWN🎂🎂🎂
Thank you!
Sadly early on in the season it's pretty normal for alot of rides being down. Usually by the end of May they have things fully operational
Well didn’t realise, so we’ll definitely come later next time!
Yeah I've made the same mistake before went on opening weekend one year and half the coasters were down all day.
I remember the vampire in it's opening year, loved the old trains but really pleased they kept it alive!
It was so good!
Hope you had an awesome birthday Shawn, and had a great day at the park. 🎂

We had similar issues last July. Over the two days that we were there rides were going down left right and centre and that meant that the lines for the few rides that were left were horrendous.
Sorry to hear that
Happy Birthday Shawn, what a great location to celebrate your Birthday!
honestly surprised a prototype of this magnitude isn’t having even more issues than it currently is. kinda crazy and speaks volumes as to how well under control zamperla has this attraction. i was truly expecting it to have a much rockier start
I’m so glad we got on it!
This comment has got to be a joke.
@@jeffc1347 no i’m just realistic
@@coastingalong The ride was open one weekend then went SBNO...how is it possible for it to go any worse than that?
@@jeffc1347 it was open longer than dragster ever was 🤣🤣
"The gift that keeps on giving" LOL
Yes, most parks in central and eastern USA are not fully functioning until Labor Day weekend being the last weekend in May. The kids being college or high school are not out until mid week the week before so staffing is an issue until then. Most of the water rides feed off the water park so until that opens they are not. Same if you go after Labor Day weekend being end of August though it is still very very warm. Most pools and water parks close after that weekend every summer. Again, a lot is due to staffing as the kids are back in school and not worth the cost of the water parks functioning for a couple to few more week to only be open weekends. People hate that Labor Day is the official last day of summer as it stays very warm all through September. I am actually surprised the pools at the breakers are already open! They must be heated being so far north at this time of the year!
Thanks for sharing!
Love watching your videos, they always make me happy and really make my day. 😊❤ Keep up the good content 😊👍
That thumbnail is reminding me, the Big One needs to be RMCd
Now that would be incredible
Happy birthday Shawn hope you had a great day at Cedar Point! 🥳
Thank you!
Happy birthday Shawn hope you enjoyed your day
That weird kink in the track at 50:41 has always been strangely funny to me
Hey you two. Always enjoy the extensive vlog of your parkcapades. I would say it would be better to insert your povs from the old videos so we don’t have to go searching for them if possible please.
Thank you! I wanted to focus on getting some nice off ride shots in the sunshine this time!
Happy birthday Sean! Have a great trip!! 🎉
Happy Birthday Shaun!! You are at my favourite theme park.
