Everything else goes here, including discussion of parks outside of Carowinds and any off-topic discussion

So Saturday evening, me and Matt hit up Family Kingdom. Here is the Ferris Wheel.

Image

And my Swamp Fox.

Image

The ride was running very well for it being opening weekend. There was new wood on the tracks. And I swear, every time I'm in Myrtle Beach, it looks like the just painted the darn thing.

Image

This part is pretty evil. In a good way. At nite, the whole ride kicked our butts, and was so aggressive. Matt had never gotten rides like this.

Image

I like their carousel.

Image

Matt kicked my butt in the wonderfully racist dark ride.

Image

Credit?

Image

They've done some landscaping all around the park, and they re-sealed both sides of the asphalt so that the log flume side no longer looks like a parking lot as much. It looked very nice.

Image

There is plenty of room to move the shot tower a bit (since they take it down every year anywho) and put another flat ride for adults there if they ever decide to.

Image

We left for a bit and grabbed some grub, then went back after dark. I'm assuming this entrance is new.

Image

We mainly went back for an hour for nite rides till about midnite. OMG was Swamp Fox running insane. Didn't get an 'ultimate' ride like I did last time (end of season, after a rain storm, humid, end of the day), but they were pretty darn close.

Image

We meant to ride Thunder Bolt, but Swamp Fox was running too good.
