Kings Island

 


Welcome to Kings Island

We were excited to tryout the new Phantom Theater

The additions of No-Legs Larry

and The Maestro to the queue area are great additions that really add to the storyline

You board your Opera Box and use flashlights to catch "ghost notes" to score points

The ride is fantastic

We're proud to report that Swoosh was able to max out his flashlight on our second ride through

While our other crew member made Head Usher status, Swoosh is apparently a Theater Owner

Diamondback - our favorite ride in the park

Mystic Timbers - don't go in the shed

Soap Box Racers

Air Rail

Woodstock's Express

The Beast - Row 17 for the win

Queen City Stunt Coaster - the mid course show scene is pointless now

Shake Rattle and Roll

WindSeeker

Zephyr

The Racer - apparently the Blue side wins all the time now

The Monster - somehow it is back against all odds

Flight of Fear - Swoosh still has to ride in the even rows because he's so tall.

Orion - it's starting to grow on us, but still not better than Diamondback

Sol Spin

This is probably the best looking area in the park other than the main fountain area

Adventure Express beat us up today.  The grouper forced us in the back seat of our cart.  Never again

Cargo Loco - why don't more parks have this ride?

The Bat - boy was this crew not in any hurry today

Congo Falls - surprise it still works

Invertigo - how is this still here?

Delirium

Banshee

Drop Zone

We were serenaded while we ate our pizza in Festahaus

The floral calendar looked amazing

When at Kings Island you have to go up in the Eiffel Tower



One last thing before we depart - Happy Century Birthday to the Grand Carousel
