So memorial day weekend Preston and I decided to take a trip to Chicago. We ended up with 2 extra hooligans, which turned out to be totally freaking awesome! 
WE got there and it was pretty much cold. Don't worry, resourceful Lori found a way to keep her hands warm. The rest of us mocked her, but she didn't seem to care and was probably the warmest. We raced to the new batman ride, "Dark Knight" only to be HORRIBLY disappointed by a VERY lame kiddie ride. It was actually a good first ride because no matter how bad the other rides were we could say, "at least it wasn't as bad as the dark knight!"
The superman ride was definitely a fav, although a little nauseating after riding it 3 times in a row right before closing. You actually lay on your belly during the ride, which adds a whole new element to the roller coaster experience. We also had a chance to pose with the man himself...some of us got a little more into character than others...
We rode the tower, bring you up and hold you there for a sec and then drop you ride, which was a hit.
Toshi had his first churro...and then his second...and later in the trip his third!
I think we all enjoyed VERTICAL VELOCITY. Preston either thought it rocked or wanted to murder it...I can't tell from this picture :)
