Kings Island/Soak City TR 25/12

So today I had a variance of experiences. We started at the Larosas at the Intl. Street, which the pizza was personally better than usual. We then walked to Soak City, where we saw Holiday Horror props at the peanuts theater. At the Waterpark we noticed more chipping of paint (which I like) and larger crowds. We went to the Thunder Falls, where we noticed something very odd. A young man, tried to go to the right part of the silde station, but the lifefguard (this occured at 1:30 for any reference) told him to stay at the left, which to my knowledge of being a "waterpaker" at KI for years this is not usual, so a question for PR, why was this implimented today? (thanks in advance!) After I went to the wavepool for a few moments, then to the body slides (Down Under Thunder, once again the name alludes me!) where it was a crowded line. After we left for the park. We rode The Racers then to the car for the way to the close home. Now near the Jukebox diner there is a pumpkin plant with pumpkins, with 2 other plants near it. Also the plants are near the DA! Thanks for reading -BB1
