At the Harbor, the Best Pool |
So I was only really in Illinois for 1 full day, but I spent it with 2 of my favorite things: Pizza and Six Flags. First I met a few friends for lunch at the best Chicago Style Pizza restaurant: Ginos East! Some may argue this with me, however you do not have my taste buds. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos of it, but just know that it was as incredible as always.

We weren't able to make it to the park until 5:30 because of a lot of traffic, but the park wasn't too busy so it all worked out. Once we reached the Harbor, I made a stop in each section to see what guards and supervisors were on-duty. It was really wonderful at how many people were excited to see me as well as asking all about what I had been doing.
Since they were all busy with closing duties, we left the harbor to ride NAMTAB (that's Batman

Now we lucked out and found out that the park was going to be running extended hours that night as it was the first night of summer. All you had to do was show a photo of a flyer they had posted online and you were given a wristband for 2 extra hours of coasters!
When night fell, we made our way over to the new nighttime show, ignite! Its an outdoor show where
all of the effects are done by lights, lasers and video projection. Overall the show was very corny, and honestly the story line (starting with the Chicago fire) was really bad, and the projection mapping was nothing to call home about. HOWEVER, for a non-Disney park, it was fantastic! The show and stage has a lot to grow upon and I hope they improve it in the coming years.
Check out some more photos of ignite! over in the #LyfInFocus-Illinois Album.
