tnguy Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I love Lake winnie! When I went the Cannonball really exceeded my expectations. Its a really fun ride. I don't know about fondling, but I know I've smelled weed in the boat chute tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Note that you have total control of your plane and the REALLY good people could spin this thing continuously! Â Those of us that were not so good just ended up stuck upside down for most of the cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnottsDisneyFarm Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Awww man, I would hate that so much being stuck upside-down for a WHOLE ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastercrzyjames Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 What i think I miss most is the crazy night in the hotel lobby right before Lake Winnie. That was a really good time; theme parks, roller coasters, and squeegees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 ^Those that were not in the lobby that night will NEVER know what they missed! Renee picking just the right time to sing the "snack song" is one of the funniest trip moments ever. And I'm still annoyed I only bought one copy of that Just Busted paper. Â Lake Winnie was awesome. I had never been there, so I had no idea what to expect, and it turned out to be a really cool place. Lots of fun flat rides! Â dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jynx242 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I haven't laughed as hard as I laughed that night. We are totaly going to hell, mind you, but it was some funny stuff. Â That fly-o-plane was wild, but it almost finished quite a few of us off. I know Eli, myself, Brook and Dan all left it with bruses and strange marks all over our bodies. Â Lake Winnie was AWESOME! They even made announcements thanking us for being there throughout the entire park during lunch. Great place. Â David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smells_like_team_disney Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 ^The fly-o-plane was just evil! I'm glad I got to experience a one-of-a-kind ride, but never again. Lake Winnie as a whole just blew me away! The place was packed with charm and had an awesome collection of rides, including quite possibly one of the most underrated drop towers in the country. Even the dark AC room (Castle ) added to the overall feel of the park. I really did not know what to expect, considering I had never been to an old-fashioned, traditional park (I grew up with the big boys in SoCal). Now I know I have to make more trips to parks like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devious Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 /\ The Small traditional parks are where i always have the best park days  Me and steven about killed each other in the fly'o'plane, we'd get a good roll going and then it would stick upside down on the second  And the cannonball, oh how i love you so, especially the evil pop of airtime going into the brakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xcoaster Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 ^ Yeah, I loved that the best spot of air occurs when pulling into the brakes. Â I didn't do much better on the Fly-o-Plane this time. I kept the plane level until it got up to speed, then I threw myself and the steering wheel to the right, hoping that rolling outward would help. But I only did one roll, slid to the left side of the car, and got stuck sideways. I tried a few times to roll over again, but I just got stuck painfully upside down. Neat ride though. Definitely a challenge. Â Also, the new gift shop was really fantastic (coaster parts, models, and Christmas ornaments!). And Castle was better than I remembered.

BeemerBoy Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Wait, no picture of KidTums on the Frog Hopper? Are my hopes of seeing a Frog Hopper Review gone now?

nursemelis374 Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Remember the rapids ride at Alabama Adventure that didn't get you wet and also had the flooded station? Â Alabama Adventure Raft Incident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milst1 Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 ^^^^ Â Yeah, saw this! Â We actually hit a piece of equipment *really* hard and unexpectedly in the last section before coming back to the station and I wondered if there was was any connection.

nay Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Yikes... We noticed that our boat had practically no air in the bottom part of it when we got off the ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigThunder Man Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Our raft seemed to be over inflated when we rode it. It's scary to think it's happen 2 other times before this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moinab Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Ummm...do you read this site? Have you noticed that they are on another trip? And have another one coming up in a couple of weeks? Have you also noticed that it really pisses them off when people complain about updates? Â A little friendly advice - go back and modify your post, preferably deleting it all together. There will be updates when/if Robb has the time and inclination, and posts like yours puts a serious damper on both. Â Sorry if I'm backseat moderating, but really, it's hard to hold back sometimes!
