On our way to the park we passed a bus that was going straight to hell.

Yay! Another group photo! They have giant letters that spell out the parks name ala California Adventure.

To pay homage to the Simpsons out front was the Duff Beeramyd.

Ok, so the characters didn't have the actors faces inside hidden....CREEPY!!!!

Kidtums is all "Um, dudes, I can SEE YOU! You're not fooling me!"

Someone should tell Hard Rock Park that THIS is how to theme a Vekoma Mine Train!

Look at it! There is so much rock work and foliage that you can't even see the train!

It's hard to believe that this is the EXACT same ride as Life in the Fast Lane at Hard Rock.

Same thing goes for the B&M Flyer. The pretzel loop is about the only thing you can really see.

The rest of it ducks in and out of the rock work.

I kind of wish Dueling Dragons was built more like this.

It was a lot more like Nemesis or Black Mamba the way it was hidden within the theming.

And it *felt* like you were getting VERY close to some of those rocks!

Meat on sticks was the desired meal of the day. I think we consumed at least a few chickens.

Thanks to the one train operation, we saw lines for the first time on this trip. The crew did kick ass though with their 45 second dispatch times (How's the Tatsu crew doing Jahan?)

The bottom of the pretzel loop looked like it should have had a splash element!

Just look at how amazing that is!

The entire park was so heavily themed it was like being at IOA or a Busch park.

"I'm CRAAAAAZY Deformed Rock Guy...give me some special olympics!"

Hmmm....I just *know* I've seen something like this somewhere before....
