We're Dan and Sean and in August of 1999 we took a 9 day trip that included 7 straight days riding as many rollercoasters as we could.  We rode a total of 44 different coasters at 11 parks in 6 states.  The following is our photo "journal" of the bumps and bruises.  Each park page contains a photo and rating of every coaster we rode.  Enjoy your ride!

DAY 1

The trip begins in the town of our college -- East Carolina in Greenville, NC.  Our highlight was lunch at Chili's with the Chaffee clan.  We also spent some time visiting the old school.  Much of it seems as though we never left.

 

No road trip would be complete without great friends and gallons of beer.  Virginia Beach brought us plenty of both.  Thanks to Jeff and Manoli for the excellent accommodations.  Special thanks to Tom Hames for the wrestling match!

DAY 2

Now, on to the COASTERS!  Follow the links for pictures and ratings of every coaster we rode.   P.S. Hangovers and coasters don't mix (but that didn't stop us)!
