Kings Dominion, Busch Gardens, and Cedar Point
hello wonderful youtube it's alex um so last week i went to king's dominion um and that's in virginia if you don't know it's in dodgeball virginia it's at cedar fair park it's a neat little park so the recap all right so we drove down tuesday it took like eight hours to get there because of dc traffic we get to the park at six and we rode six rides in three hours we rode dominator reptilian boob blasters tombili and twisted timbers twice and we ate at waffle house after it was
actually really good um so then the next day um the first day was really that much i will give more description of the rides um actually no so the rides so dominator is a floorless coaster from giaga lake and it's really fun it used to be called batman it's it's just really fun i wrote it twice it was really good um boob blasters is a little shooter game from the paramount days it's really fun they have like four of them there's one at kings island kings dominion carowinds and
uh canada's wonderland tombili is their new ride excuse me it's a free spin coast i'll put a video down here in a second reptilians it's a bargain coaster and twisted timbers is kings of millions rmc so before we go on i'm going to show you guys a clip here of tombili from king's dominion all right so the next day we went to uh uh kingsville again it was wednesday and the park was still dead the first day the park was dead second day to park was like the same and we rode
berserker tobili intimidator 305 flight of fear and then we did i want to say we did drop tower then delirium which is like a frisbee ride this ride called then we did the racer then we got in line for this wild mouse called uh apple's apple but then it closed so we rode twisted timbers twice then we wrote apples apple then we went over and rode windseeker then we got some lunch rode this roller coaster called the grizzly which is the worst coaster there it's awful the layout's fun it just needs some
re-tracking and then we rode the antique cars and trying everything we did after that because i don't really remember i think we walked around a little bit and i had to do a video call for this college i want to go to and then after that we went back in road timberly again and after that we went back to our hotel swam for a bit got some dinner at this mexican place and went to bed we um it was it was just we just did everything so fast like oh no after anti-cars we did dominator and then boo blasters again
that's what we did sorry i'm trying to remember oh and i wrote anaconda at some point i remember writing it and back a lot i wrote every coaster there at least once sorry if my fallouts aren't organized it's just if i wrote this all out i probably would have forgotten about it too so we went back to hotel and then we went to bed and while we're at our hotel we were debating about if we want to go to the park our third day and we're like no we'd be bored on our minds we ordered the whole park
basically twice so then we decided to go to busch gardens williamsburg which is about an hour from the park like just over an hour like hour 15. it's not that far so we went to busch gardens the next morning we got there write it open sorry my camera's so shaky just it's not my hands not being stable so we went to busch gardens and in order we wrote apollo's chariot uh tempesto and then we went over and rode this rifle for bolton then we wrote alpengeist griffin um then we rode the train for a lap
like a lap around the park then we did the show and then we did loch ness monster and then we went over rode pantheon twice then we went back to france and did uh uh griffin twice like in a row and then we went over and did a polished chariot again and we actually ate at three of the major lands there we ate at the italy building the german building and the new france building and they're actually really good options the food was really good there um yeah the park was still really dead i kind of locked this monster shirt from
there and i have to say my favorite ride there is probably griffin or lock this monster they're both really good uh hey this is how's the dive coaster my favorite ride of the park i don't know but um the new coaster pantheons i like the veloci coaster just like half the size i think it's because i read online you're supposed to put like a 300 foot spike on it that got removed during the design process which would make a lot of sense but it was overall a really fun day we left the park at like eight got back
to the hotel by 9 30 went to bed and drove back which we did all friday we drove back home friday and that was great and then saturday this is where my i'm gonna combine two little topics i went to cedar point with my friend josh again and i don't really remember we wrote i remember we rode the sky ride millennium force steel vengeance maverick gemini corkscrew power tower and the ferris wheel and on the ferris wheel we took some photos of the construction so let's put some of these photos up here now
over here is looking directly towards wind seeker and there's a lot of like nothing really going on but the field over here is about 45 degrees angle away really it's not much more to see and over here is a little more foundation work maybe a station too and this is the like 45 angle looking towards gatekeeper again nothing really much going on here all right that just about wraps up this video i hope you guys enjoyed um it's about it's coming out later than i wanted to because i kind of kept pushing it off but yeah see you guys around uh peace out
