Part 1: Virginia Beach   Part 2: Kings Dominion   Hard Rock Park   Carowinds   Dollywood   Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom   Beech Bend Park   Holiday World   Kings Island

Next up, Dollywood!  Wow this has to be the best parks of the trip.  We thought the park was flawless.  We all thought Hard Rock Parks staff was nice, but wow Dolly put them to shame.  Dollywood had excellent theming, and Mystery Mine and Thunderhead are both some of the best coasters in the world.  They both rank in my top 10, also in Tylers.  Thunderhead is tied as my favorite woodie.  I wonder how a park could get any better.  We didn't even expect it to be that great.  We thought it would be basic, and a nice little park.  But this is a world class park, and it was great.  This was the most enjoyable park of the trip, everyone needs to visit Dollywood now!

Now let me tell you specifically about the two great coasters.  First up Thunderhead.  Thunderhead was a non stop wooden coaster, it never let up, and it was long.  The whole ride was very wild, still smooth, and was great.  There wasn't a single flaw with it.  Now onto Mystery Mine, this ride was done very well.  The beginning was great, you felt like you were on an old abandoned mine, as you rocked and creeped along the track.  The rest of the ride was a non stop thrill, as you go up two vertical lifts.  This ride put Fahrenheit to shame, I thought Fahrenheit was awesome, but nothing compared to this ride.  Oh yeah, Mystery Mine has a few surprises up its sleeve!
