King's Dominion

More fun in the gift shop!

Before riding Avalanche. It was like a bobsled, a lot of fun!!

Anaconda. Fastest and highest of them all in the park. Even went underwater once. Pretty neat!

All four of us standing in line. The longest line was for Volcano, we stood in line for about 2 hours, but all the other lines were less than half hour, most with only 5-10 minute wait. I am glad we didn't have to wait 2 hours for every ride. That wouldn't have been fun.

Yeah, we know we're cute!

There was a ton of water in this park!

So, as you can see, we had a blast at King's Dominion. Tammy and Andrea came up on Thursday night. Went to dinner and a movie. We went and saw Live Free or Die Hard. It was really good. I love a great action flick. Had some awesome stunt work and amazing special effects. Bruce Willis seems like he should be 80 by now, but he still looks good!
I had to work Friday, so Shaun and the girls just piddled around Hagerstown until I got home. Then the party started. Hehe...kidding. I was so tired from getting home so late Thursday night that I fell asleep about 15 minutes after we started a movie at home. Saturday, we headed off to King's Dominion. Shaun had been wanting to go since his birthday, so we were really looking forward to it, and getting very excited toward the end of the week. It was a blast. They have a water park, that we were gonna spend a few hours at, but we couldn't fit everything into the locker, so we decided not to go. That's ok though, cuz we got to spend more time with the coasters. We went on about 8 of them. There we a couple Andrea wanted to go on that Shaun and I said no way. We know our limits.
Volcano was the first, and it starts off with a fast acceleration. Then spits you out upside down at the top of the volcano. It was super fun. It is the type of ride where your feet dangle.
The other super cool one was the Anaconda. The last one we rode. It takes you upside down several times. See above pictures.
We also went on about 3 or 4 wooden coasters. They we fun, but you really get thrown around. Some are really violent. By the last one, my shoulder was really hurting.
We also went on a cool ride. It looks like a kiddie ride cuz its just one car at a time. But, you get moving fast, and the way it makes sharp turns, really makes you feel like you are gonna fall off the track. It was neat.
So, short of making this a really long post (I know, too late)...I won't explain every ride we went on. Just wanted to share some of my favorites. After the park we went to dinner then said good-bye to the girls. They headed back south that night. Otherwise their drive on Sunday would have been long, and Andrea had to work Sunday evening.
Overall, it was a fun-filled weekend, and we had a blast!
