Day 1 Continued

This is the Camp Bus, it goes up and down in a big circle. Dallon and Jace could both ride this. Jace was very serious about it, but didn't want to get off when it was over either.
The Xcelerator is really intense. The last time we visited I went on this ride, but I couldn't get up the courage this time. Chris went though. "The XCELERATOR hydraulically launches you off the line at an electrifying top speed of 82 mph in 2.3 seconds through an exhilarating 205-foot ascent and immediate descent ata 90-degree angle." Its a total ride of only 1 minute, but you travel over 2200 feet of track.

This is the Boomerang. I got up the courage to ride this on our second visit to Knott's (Friday). "This scream machine puts you head-over-heels six times in less than 1 minute! Just when you think it's safe to breathe, it gives it to you all over again -- BACKWARDS!" Its a pretty intense ride, but not as fast or as high.
Dallon had to have this sucker. After it made a big mess (all over him, us and Jace) we found an opportunity to trash it while he wasn't looking. Only about 1/4 of it was eaten.
