Dollywood

Yesterday(Friday) me, mom, Dylan, my Aunt Amy and her whole family (except Brian) went to Dollywood. It wasn't exactly the warmest day ever having a high of 65 but with no sun shining the whole day. OH, did I mention that 1/4 of the park is water rides?? Well, let me give you a little backround information on Dollywood. It is named after Dolly Parton, is located in the center of 2 mountains, and is shaped somewhat like a "L". So, my favorite ride is the Tenessee Tornado (which is in the very back of the park) is a very long walk from the entrance. It has a 130 foot drop straight down, applies 4 G-forces to your body, goes 70mph, has 3 loops, and drops straight into a mountain. So, you guessed it THRILLING. I rode it 3 times. At the front of the park is a new section called......I don't remember the name. Well, it has the Thunderhead ride. I rode this ride 7 times It is a wooden ride and has the country's ONLY(wooden) fly-by. That is when a roller coaster goes through the station during the ride. As you can imagine, when a roller coaster is going upwards of 40 mph on a wooden track, it is very loud. Then there's the Mystery Mine. The lines were very long the whole day for that ride, as in 1hr,45min long. So, I had to ride it some time so I did. It was AWESOME!! It has a 95 ft. drop, and an 85ft drop. It also has 2 90 degree climbs. STRAIGHT UP with no angle whatsoever. That was awesome.

Now to the WATER RIDES. I rode "River Rampage" which takes you through rapids. That means that one person on every boat gets SOAKED. Guess who that person was????
ME!!
Okay, it's 4 oclock and i've dried from river rampage(which we rode at 12o'clock) and now we are getting on Daredevil Drop. Water ride. I didn't get soaked on this one, but I got drizzled with water. Now we're on Mountain Sidewinder. First off, you have to climb a mountain to get to the darn thing. Next, a worker has to weigh you to see if you are heavy enough to ride it. If you aren't, then he pairs you up with other people. So, I'm on the ride, and this is my first time on the ride. It got me a little wet. FAST FORWARD: Next time I'm on the ride I get DRENCHED all through my sweatshirt, everything. Then we rode other various non-water rides till seven when it closed. It was a fun day, and a wet one.

P.S. I still don't think my clothes have dried 12 hours later!!

PPS. I fixed my clock on the bottom of the page, so whenever you see the time, that is the time that I published it
