Lagoon?

[Bud Parsley]

Been there a few times in my life, but it's been several years. I used to hate this park, but it seems they've really built it up over the past few years.

I hear the Spider coaster is pretty awesome (spinner). And then they added the Bat (family suspended). They have an excellent big Schwarzkopf with lap bar only, a classic woodie, a Jet Star 2, a new Mouse, and a ton of flats. A very huge ferris wheel (biggest I've ever seen in person), a nice S&S combo tower, and a few big upcharge attractions including a large skycoaster. Add in a full blown water park, a very nicely done rapids ride, a sky ride (getting harder to find these days) and two classic dark ride haunted houses and you've got a really great park.

Now it seems they are adding a new coaster that is rumored to be their biggest with some type of launch and bunch of inversions.

Makes me want to head back down there and check out what's happened over the past several years.

Any thoughts?

Depending on what the new coaster ends up being, we may have to take a trip over there next year. Any park with a classic John Miller woodie looks good in my book.

I agree that the park has definitely improved. I'd like to check it out now that they are adding a new big coaster. Last time I went was before the Spider and the Bat had been built. But they had added the new mouse which I really like, and the rafting ride is one of the best ones out there by far. And the S&S tower was there too..I think it was brand new last time I went. I really thought those three added a lot to the park.

I've liked the park, but it's just never really been worth a trip just to go there...we always went when visiting relatives. But now with the two new coasters and with this new big one they're adding, it may be worth making the drive down there!
