I had two options to either go forty minutes in the wrong direction for a +2 at Zatorland or continue to lap some of the continent's finest rides, and this may shock you to hear that I decided against that aforementioned fly-by in favour of the big roller coasters. Maybe another day. (as of...

Arnolds Park has replaced their Roll O Plane with this thing

Monster has left Cedar Point

A disgustingly early start led me towards a 6am(?) flight to Montreal for my first ever domestic flight. Porter Airlines seems unnecessarily lush for providing such short flights and prices were pretty steep too; I'm not sure why a 40 minute flight needs the option to pay for WiFi but I guess...
