 Yesterday was a weird kind of day. What started off as a day of travel quickly turned into a day of not a whole lot of travel, but one where we ended up in Valencia with a couple of hours to kill, so why not stop in at Magic Mountain to see what was doing and to ride a few coasters. And that's just what we did. We'll take a look at what's been going on with Justice League since our tour a couple of weeks ago as well as some pictures and video of the Apocalypse re-do. Written by Gregg Condon Coming soon ...  Doesn't look like anything has been done on Riddlers yet  But it sure does need a paint job  Weird, when we did our tour the building didn't seem that big, but it's REALLY big.    Would expect work on all of this to pick up pace in the next few weeks. In fact, we noticed a crane sitting near Riddlers when we rode Batman.  They are doing a lot of work on the food area   Really like the blue paint here. It's not just the normal "Six Flags Blue" that we've seen all over the place. =)  They were doing some work around Tidal Wave, could be for the new entrance but this seems like a REALLY weird spot for it.   Let's move on to Apocalypse, where it's getting a very extensive (and much needed) re-track. UPDATE: We confirmed with the park today that they are hoping to re-open Apocalypse on Easter weekend.   Hard to tell if anything has been done on this part of the ride  Stuff has DEFINITELY been done on this part of the ride. Hi dude up there working!!!     It looks like they've started removing stuff from this part of the ride  This is as close as we could get, but looks like some of the metal track has been taken out.  A couple of random tid-bits ... the tree was removed from outside Gold Rusher awhile ago, some nice plants have been put in it's place. Really shows how much TLC Gold Rusher needs though.  Tatsu is back open after getting it's lift hill chain replaced. Which means we're back to hearing Tatsuuuuuu at every ride now. Ugh.  Had some lunch at Pick Six and it was good as always. Don't always eat at the park, but this is our go-to these days.  They are doing some work in Screampunk, redoing the clock thing we'd guess.  The steam on the Steam Engine was really steaming. Smelled like Halloween Fog. Is it time yet?  Overall it was a beautiful and blustery day at the park.  Remember, the park is open daily from now until Labor Day which means that once the Spring Break period is over the park will be totally empty from about mid-late April until the week of Memorial Day. It's without a doubt the best time of year to experience the park. We'll remind you again when the time is closer. =) Related Updates:
