We also got a spectaular lunch at the picnic pavillion, complete with pulled pork BBQ sandwiches and mini-bags of chips. We had to bring our own money for funnel cakes though. <BR/><BR/>We are headed to Adventureland next week - and my personal fave was that spinny ride where the backs of the ride had pictures of frontier scenery on them. I liked the bumper cars, but HATED the Silly Silo. Is it still there? Oh, and the Himalaya. Is that still there? And the Scrambler! Oh, I could go on forever...<BR/>Great essay by the way! Brought back memories. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01081723278124641958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33629869.post-39097447253390214372008-06-03T10:19:00.000-07:002008-06-03T10:19:00.000-07:00I love it!I love it!Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269872465115056916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33629869.post-18472352929147518912008-06-03T05:40:00.000-07:002008-06-03T05:40:00.000-07:00You have no idea how thrilled I was to read this p...You have no idea how thrilled I was to read this post! We get to take Little Cub to Adventureland next month, and I absolutely cannot WAIT! <BR/><BR/>Oh how well I remember those ladybugs, not to mention the red-and-white Red Baron bi-planes, the blue boats, and the golf-cart Model T fords that are no longer there (they are gone, right?). We went a number of years back and I got to relive the glorious days of youth by running around like an 8-year-old, dragging Daddy Big Chief from one excitement to another. 'They used to have the coolest 1-person roller coaster here, but now it's a stupid ferris wheel. I can't wait to show you the Dragon and The Galleon. Hey, what the heck have they done to the Super Screamer?!'<BR/><BR/>I cannot WAIT!!!!<BR/><BR/>And I have to admit, I was a hybrid between a Lover and a Hater of the bumper cars. I, too, have been a victim of The Dud, and felt a mixture of supreme unfairness and relief at not having to attempt to whack other cars and failing miserably. But just wait .... I haven't had a chance to slam Daddy around on those things yet.The DutchMac Tribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01108463221404795234noreply@blogger.com
