Having not been able to visit Holiday
World earlier in the year, I was able to find an opportune time to make a drive up
on Labor Day weekend. This would be a particularly short visit since I
wanted to be out of the park and driving before sundown, so I made sure
to hit the essentials immediately.
Upon
arriving and getting in to the park, I made my way to the lockers where
I would place my belongings (including camera), then made a bee-line
straight to Hyena Falls. If you're not familiar with the layout of
Holiday World, then you should probably know that the walk to there can
be, admittedly, quite lengthy. On your way there, you pass a wave pool,
two water play structures, a world class wooden roller coaster (Voyage),
and an Intamin shoot-the-chutes (Giraffica, previously called Pilgrim's
Plunge).
Eventually you make it to a more quiet corner of the amusement park where the new ProSlide complex was placed, along with a small splash and fountain area for smaller children, a new large restroom stall, an extra Dippin' Dots stand and a roofed area containing free Pepsi drink stalls and a pretzel stand. The area was fairly quiet upon arrival considering it was far from most of the other water slides in the park, but as the day went on, people began to migrate more towards it and that's when the lines really filled up.
So how about the new slides?
