Guest kwindshawne Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 http://kingsislandkas.photogra.com/index.c...ak%5Cstatic3%24 *&^$ You all know how I struggle with pics on this site. Anyway, just a quick trip report from this past Sunday. After about 20 years, my dad finally made it back to KI. After shooting the bull with a few of the metal detectors we headed into the park. We made an immediate left toward Action Zone. He couldn't believe all the changes that had taken place over the past years. We then decided to hit the tower. We compared all the changes that had taken place. He was distressed to learn the antique cars had been removed, as that was one of my first driving lessons as a youngster. We then went over to dodge em (as an ex race car mechanic that was inevitable). We noticed that they have been slowed over the years, as we used to just whack the crap out of each other. We then went to Firehawk and watched that for a while. We then headed toward Vortex...I think he found that and Firehawk pretty intriguing. Unfortunately due to health, we were unable to ride much. At that point he was beginning to tire so we went on the train and took it easy for a bit. Lot of changes to the scenery, still a relaxing time. We then headed into the Nick area and talked about enchanted voyage and how it was missed...he didn't recognize the building. In fact, the only thing he saw that didn't change was the first aid booth. At that point we went over to emporium and got him one of the clearance winterfest jackets. He had had enough at that point, so we headed toward the gate. I presently do not have a digital camera, so I asked one of the kids to snap our pic. This was a very special day I thought I would share with all of you, and one I will never forget. Thanks for a great day KI. kwindshawne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
