One really helpful bit of info. for us was that every restaurant or stand will give you free ice water. (not the free-standing carts though). We skipped bringing in our cooler for drinks because of this! It is listed on the CP website. Also, be sure to check out the $.25 sticks of cotton candy! We just went last Fri. and we all had a blast! If you have younger child, be sure to stop at park services for a parent pass. It allows one parent to stay with younger children while the other rides with older children. The waiting parent is then able to go in the exit and ride the ride! I usually took our 6 year old nearby to ride, came back and rode with one of my older children. They got extra rides, I still got to ride with no wait and the little guy didn't spend all daY waiting around. Those things all made our day at CP terrific!!!

Have fun! Hit the big rides early or at meal times to avoid lines. We rode almost everything and rarely waited. The "oldies" in the coasters had almost no lines because everyone was at the new rides! LOL Poor old neglected coasters. Mean Streak is a great wooden coaster and seems to be forgtten in the back!
