Kings Island

Welcome to Kings Island.
This past season the park was bought from Paramount by Cedar Fair. 
It was nice being able to get into Kings Island for free with my WOF pass.

If you couldn't tell, I'm up in the Eiffel Tower taking a look around.
Son of Beast is quite the pile of lumber.

Firehawk is new this year.  A "gift" from Geauga Lake.

Wonder Park


Welcome to Wonder Park Family Entertainment Center.

The main attraction here is the Boa Squeeze.

...and let's be honest, it's the reason we are even here.


Yeah, we're not really sure why they have a Pac-Man statue in the middle of the course.

We've heard that the park used to be run by Pac-Man's parent company.


They had a few other rides at the park as well - like a kiddie train.

There was also a flying tigers ride.

There was also a very large arcade.  It was an interesting park and worth a stop.
