holiday world

The Voyage rocks! I loved it and can hardly wait to ride again.
The Raven was cool and The Legend sucked, so I was not pumped about "another" wooden coaster. I would still rather Holiday world have atleast one metal coaster, but the new ride is really great. The new river was needed as the other one becomes so crowded that you cant move, but its rather dull....maybe they have other plans for it.
They need more thrill rides for the family with kids inbetween the toddler stage and teenagers. Really if your not 48" tall all you have to choose from is stuff a 2 year old would enjoy, or the Revolution. I feel so bad for Emmie and Isaac...they are mature enough to enjoy thrilling rides but only tall enough to ride the stuff in the baby section near the front doors or holidogs fun town or the indian canoe. Blah! Emmie did make it on to the Raven(but really was not tall enough as we found out later) she was all smiles as she walked off the platform. Jake rode the Voyage but kept his head down the whole time(I think the first drop scared him) it may be awhile before he rides it again.
When the Liberty Launch first open I mention to someone that it seemed like the Power Tower at Cedar Point was atleast 3 times taller...but to my knowledge no one I told has believed me. So after some research...the Power Tower is more that 3 times taller. The liberty Launch is 80 feet while the Power Tower is a whooping 300 feet. Put the Liberty on its self 3 times then add 60 feet and you will have the Power Tower! I feel pretty good that I underestimated,as some have accused me of overexagerrating in the past.
