- I would give yourself two days at each park. If you go in very early May CP
- would not be very crowded on Friday. Figure about a 15-20 min. wait for
- Magnum and Mean Streak about 5-10 min. for everything else. Expect much
- longer waits on Saturday. If you can't go 'till June I would wait until the
- end of June since CP is open 'till midnight on Fri. and Sat. I've only gone
- to KI on the weekends but I imagine the weekday crowds early in the season are
- comparable to CP's. If you can swing the time off I would drive to CP Thursday
- after work, go to CP Fri. and Sat., drive to KI Sat. night, go to KI Sun. and
- Mon. and drive home Mon. night.
