Frightmares

Hit Lagoon on Saturday with our oldest, her hubby and their good friend (our 'other son') Bo. We certainly lucked out in the weather department...I was sweating it there for a while last week. It was not looking favorable for rollercoaster riding or "Superman Swing"-ing (I know it's not really called that but I have a hard time remembering the term 'Sky Coaster', plus I think 'Superman Swing' has a bit more flavor)...not at all. But the Gods smiled on us and we had the best fall weather. Not a tone of people crawling the park so that was another bonus. We were able to ride 'til our little hearts were content. Or we just couldn't take any more, I'm not sure which.

They have a great sense of humor there at the park for Frightmares:



Cracked me up :0) I took some kinda cool shots of a few of the neon signs...loved how this one turned out:


I think that Wicked is still my favorite ride ride,



but the SS is by far my favorite thing in the whole place!






The Chantelle, Chris and Bo rode the Samurai (not me, Jack...my stomach can't take that kind of abuse..it's got a 'hurl factor' of about 16)




And of course, how can you go to Lagoon without riding the bumper cars!



It was a great day, with tons of fun, laughs, some scares (the 'evil' circus peeps and the chainsaw freaks...oh, and the gargoyle!) and a good time was had by all.
