I adore funnel cake.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 15d

This would be the best decision they could ever make.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 25d

This was also just for me because I definitely went to bed before most of this.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 25d

Hysterical. Did you plan this or was it a happy coincidence?

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 26d

Have you been to Carowinds for their version yet? Same mess. Two laps and no rush on loading. We rope dropped it and still waited 20 minutes.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 26d

So I’ve been thinking about this cost while reading the rest of the days posts. Were other things more reasonable? I’d be more willing to pay an increased admission for a little break on food and drinks or lack of upsell attractions (like mini golf).

They 100% DID need to go this hard.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 26d

A bouncy animal ride! Ok now i am upset i have to wait. Haha

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 26d

It then I can be like… oh yeah! Just like I’ll do tomorrow.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 26d

Very cool! And yay to POVs.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 26d

Is this a new park for you? Are these all new credits?

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 27d

I really like the one at SFoG. Relaxing motion but high enough to feel thrilling.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 27d

Just a spooky season touch I suppose?

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · 27d

Whoa. Bizarre.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 29

This ride freaks me out for some reason. It’s fun but the idea of that many people supported by that one pendulum…

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 28

And it could be sooooo good. That helix 20 years ago was so awesome.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 28

Right? I was shocked how much I enjoyed it. The airtime hill does its job.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 28

Ops were also ridiculously slow. But that isn’t unique to this ride at OG.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 28

This was also one of the longest waits when we were there. I didn’t notice this rule when we were there but we also had kiddos.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 27

So I’ve only done the two RMCs in Georgia, but I probably agree with your takes, so will be interested when I finally get on this one. Some folks think they can do no wrong though. Why they gotta kill me at the end of the incredible AF1 with the quad down? So hard to lap.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 27

YES! So glad you did this. Maybe my kids will let me read it all in one sitting.

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 21

Did you rent a car or is there some other form of transport from park to airport?

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 21

I knew it! Was there any other option?

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 21

What could it be?!?! 😉

Wes @dadventureswithwes.bsky.social · Sep 20

Not to keep bringing up Carowinds, but we were just there. The wooden Woodstock Express there is a surprise banger for a family woodie. I love that thing. Glad they keep it going.
