That is very true, about asking when the ride itself opens.
Having grown up in Dayton, and going to King's Island many times, I know that some rides didn't open on Opening Day. Not that this will be the same, but if anyone else grew up at KI in the 80s, you'll remember the ride The Bat was ALWAYS closed for repairs.
I'm in Ironton, OH, while my husband is in Iraq. We're meeting in Europe at the end of May for his 2 weeks leave, that's the only thing I have planned. I definitely will be there for the opening of the ride if it's not the 2 weeks I'll be in Italy, on my own Italian Adventure!
