Dollywood is the land of firsts for me.
Dollywood was the first place that I thought that I might very nearly fly out of my seat in a ride.
Dollywood was the first place that I tried funnel cake.
and
Dollywood was the first place that I went on a roller coaster that left me feeling like I woke up in my Las Vegas hotel room, toothless, wondering what had happened the night before (not that I know that feeling).
Here are a few photos of Eileen and my adventures.
We look so content, so naive, not knowing what was waiting for us on THE RIVER BATTLE ride (ages 4 and up).
In this photo I am contemplating how much force is needed to push Eileen back into the water.
Eileen bribed me with funnel cake, and it worked. I didn’t leave her at Dollywood after all.
Till next time.
