Mmmmmm....toasty. The fire moved these rides around a little.

Josh was bored waiting for me to arrive...

Posted Image
Careful, handicaps falling from wheelchairs....WTH????

Posted Image
The bumper cars were anxious to open...

Posted Image
Yumm...too bad I wasn't there in time :(

They have no idea....that they are apart of theme park history

Posted Image
Morey's played the "R" card against fat people.

Posted Image
Pure awesome pain...

Posted Image
We broke the pirate ride and caused a 10 boat pile-up....no lie, we went off the track.

Posted Image
We should've paid more attention to this...

Posted Image
Free food! Acer's ahoy!

Posted Image
The recession caused the food line to be the longest...

Posted Image
Line.. the ride.

Posted Image
OMG Josh, why did you take all these pictures of the line????

Posted Image
Peter Pan is on this ship, he's just in an invisibility cloak...

One of Josh's many plates...the recession had no effect on his appetite...

Soon, that beach will be filled with soccer players. Who ever made this tournament up is a genius! I mean, free wristbands and I get to stay at one of the most beautiful campgrounds I've ever stayed at!

That was a really good TR! I'd be upset if the slide was closed as well! lol At least you got on Zoom Phloom; that ride has had a track record of being closed during the day/afternoon I've noticed...or maybe it's just that way everytime I go. :rolleyes:

One thing though...Sea Serpent is NOT rough!!! It's like smoother than Hydra at Dorney for crying out loud!

Zoom Phloom is maybe the best log flume in the world...or close. Yea, it was a great day.
