^ i wish i could afford more than 5 days! i have never been to carowinds, and as a fan of rides i want to be able to ride everything multiple times, to really feel the nooks and crannies of each coaster. also a large part of each day will be spent riding stuff with my son, he is only 3yo and already at the 44 inch mark, he gets to ride things most children his age don't get a chance to. " and he loves it! seeing the feeling of pure joy on his face is something precious and priceless to a parent. " so we have to alot enough time to make it all happen, i can't just go for 2 days and have his fun take a backseat to mine, that would just be terrible parenting. " he already gets mad that he can't ride the roller coasters with the loopty loops ( as he puts it ) on our weekly trips to dollywood." i will make sure that boy gets to ride the new things he gets to experience as much as he wants, " because that's what a good dad does." anyway, that's why we're going for 5 days, i guess i'll just buy the extra pass for him. " but earlier this year, carowinds' website did say children under 4 were free, i know i didn't misread that when i first started planning".
