I purchased these admission tickets on Family Day weekend back in February. They were 1/3 the price of gate admission! 

The boys would come off a ride - look for me - and just point at the line to go through again. For awhile they were doing every ride twice before moving on to the next one. 

I did Flight deck with them the on their second time. It's a suspended coaster. But I did it with my eyes closed - my body tensed and my brain telling me to calm down and breath. I don't think it's worth the adult stress to go on these thrill rides any more. I went on the rides that had short kidlets in the line ups, knowing I could probably have actual FUN on those ones. 

I also got my Funnel Cake treat. They are now $19.20. Wowzers. Only a Canada's Wonderland treat.
