My review of Waterworld

It was my first trip to Waterworld
A friend of mine organized a large group of us to go to Waterworld. 

We had a fun day and I am glad we were in the set aside area (+) The music was odd but I liked it (lots of 1980's Bruce Springsteen etc) rather than awful modern stuff. The weather was great as they have something in the sky called "The Sun". Being in Daly City and San Francisco I am not aware..

The negatives is the place is very inefficient. You had to pay $10 for parking but did not accept credit cards so I had to leave my ID to go to the ATM and then go back to give the $10 and then to my car. (-)
(Bring cash, yes, I should have stopped at the ATM)

Then I waited in a long slow line and they only had one ticket register open. I had a special discount code but they were not aware and had to go find someone. (-) They had other lines open just for season ticket holders. (you need to have more cashiers open or machines to buy tickets...)

Went to go to the VIP area (Big +) but I was told I needed a wristband so I went back to the ticket area and the council of wisdom was not aware but finally someone figured it out. (-) No one seemed to know what was going on as I had to go back to get wrist bands for two other friends. The supervisor asked me, who did you speak to, sadly I did not remember as I do not have a photographic memory. 

Then you needed to pay $10 and wait on yet another line to get a raft. Once again, another line with one register. If you are going to charge me make it quick. It is actually $7 but you get a $3 deposit back (with another line)

The only ride I went on was the lazy river as I am not much of a ride person 

If you have a friend that is some sort of logistics expert and you want their head to explode, bring them to Waterworld where it is comically inefficient. 

Charge a couple bucks more for tickets and then get rid of the nonsense of renting rafts. Accept credit cards for parking. A better informed staff would reduce annoying me which is the goal of most places...

Again, a fun day...
