I went to Chessington on Saturday with 3 friends for a birthday party.Unfortunately we didnt have tickets to the concert but it was still a good day. We got there at 9:15 for a 10 o'clock opening. They let us in at 9:30 but only for the zoo are, so we went to creepy caves.This was OK but a few enclosures were empty for new creatures next year. We then waited by the gate by Transylvania until the member of staff let us in at 9:45. We ran to vampire and had an awesome ride with the sound effects in the 'tunnel' on. After that we went on Bubbleworks and were the first people to go on it (or so the woman told us).After that we headed to Wild Asia for the Monkey Swinger on which we got soaked and then walked to Dragon Falls for another soaking. We queued 5 minutes and then were allowed a second go without leaving the boat.We then went to Dragons Fury which had a 30 minute queue. Went to Rattlesnake which was walk-on then to Runaway Train where we queued for 15 minutes. There was a boy at the front who had turned eleven (I think) who got congratulated by the operator, then when one of my friends shouted that it was my other friends birthday too, he acted though he didnt care which was quite funny! Then to Ramases Revenge where we sat at the end (as we had dried) and then we had lunch at Fried Chicken Co.I really liked it there! We walked up to Tomb Blaster where we were told it was suffering from technical difficulties. It remained closed all day.After that - Sealife and Hocus Pocus Hall.We headed to Black Buccaneer. The rule where an adult has to sit at the end has been changed to 16 or over. As it was my friends sixteenth birthday she got to go on it 2 times! When we got to the front we told her to save the back row, which we shouldnt really do. After that we headed to Berry Bouncers.This annoyed me. I was dragged into a queue of 30 minutes then when we got on it, all 4 of us had a pod to ourselves. The only problem was that it was too heavy so after it had crawled to the top, we slowly sank to the bottom again. 40 MINUTES WASTED.As we had 10 minutes left, I suggested we should go on Griffons Galleon. At first they were reluctant but when I told them they owed me, we went there.Great Ride! Its annoying that everyone misses it due to its position. Went on it twice until 5 which is when the park would have closed.However, the ride op said that the park was staying open till 6 due to Tomb, Kobra, Fury and Falls breaking down for long periods. At that point, Fury started testing.We had a conversation with the operator, Nick Cooke, which lasted 20 minutes! After we said goodbye we headed to Dragons Fury which had just opened. We queued 10 minutes, rode it, then went home.It was a good day altogether!(You are very lucky if you managed to read all of that!!)
