CoasterOhio Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Hello everyone! Tomorrow I am heading to Holiday World. I am going to attempt to do Live Updates if I can, but for the most part I am going to do a Daily report for Two days about the Sights, and Sounds of Holiday World amusement park in Santa Clause, Indiana! A few things about this trip... This is my first time to Holiday World, while I have tried to do as much research as possible, I am probably going to need a map at an amusement park for the first time since 2011 (Since I never used a Map at Cedar Point, we just winged it there (hah, get it. Gatekeeper? Wing Rider? Never mind...) Another thing, is that since it will be a double day trip. We will probably plan on riding everything no matter what. I may attempt snapping on their Gliders (Eagles Flight) But I've heard it's next to impossible to do. Is there anything people would like me to take plenty of pictures of? I can get plenty of Thunderbird if you guys want too! I'm good at that Coaster photography life! -CO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stashua123 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Please get some of The Legend and Raven for me, I didnt take much photos of both and with me writing my trip report as of this moment, I am a bit sad! The park layout was a bit better than I was expecting, I was hearing it was Busch Gardens Tampa confusing but it was not really, you will get used to it quickly. Have a great and FUN time! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldiesmann Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 You'll get used to the park layout pretty quickly and should have plenty of time to do everything in both Holiday World and Splashin' Safari in two days. Also note that the park is bigger than it looks, so be prepared for some walking - especially because Holiday World isn't as flat as KI. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterOhio Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 Live at Holiday World! I'm currently in line for the Voyage, which is more than likely an hour at best. So I wanted to run down the day so far! Currently I've ridden Liberty Launch, which is basically like a power tower with both drop and launch! I've also ridden Eagles Flight, their gliders at the park, and I have to say, it's possible to snap them. I just need to be a little more brave about it. As for the Voyage, I'm waiting in line right now. Capacity is pretty slow, but what I'm seeing looks pretty cool so far! Can't wait to ride it! I will more than likely give an update after riding it! No pictures until Sunday night or Monday. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No pictures until Sunday night or Monday. Guess it's taking more than an hour Amazing ride, took me 20 min at most to ride it. I would definitely wait an hour for it but hope I never have to. Hope to make it back sometime this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterOhio Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 They were only running one train for about half of the time waiting, they're now running two trains. It was absolutely amazing. Even more so that I wish go ride it again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoasterOhio Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 I'm about to try out Thunderbird left! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt112986 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I'm about to try out Thunderbird left! It's worth going for the front if the wait isn't too long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calakapepe Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 The left is the best side! Closer to the ground & you get to go through the barn! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterOhio Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 Thunderbird - Left Front Review During my rides on Thunderbird I plan on sitting in all four corners of the train, on the outside seat. I am giving reviews of each seat. While the left side isn't really fun in the first element, the rest of the layout was great and there were foot choppers from the supports and footers. I'd definitely go for this side on any visit! The launch was smooth, the entire ride was smooth! Thlugh if you don't like wind, then the front isn't for you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterOhio Posted June 11, 2016 Author Share Posted June 11, 2016 Live from Voyage Voyage just closed. A train is on the brakes but not moving currently. Matinance is here attempting to moving it right now. --update live-- they're moving the trains and cycling. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
