Knott's 100th Anniversary Celebration Media Night

Picture
Last night we were invited out to Knott's Berry Farm for the kick off of their 100th Anniversary Event. To say that we had an absolute blast at the event would be an extreme understatement. 

Not only was it great to be back in the park, to see all of the special things the park has done for their 100th Anniversary, but we got to hang out with some people we haven't seen in FAR too long. Being fully vaccinated rocks! 

​Let's head in for some fun at the farm!

Hi Knott's! We are definitely ready to celebrate!
Picture
So many great things to see, ride and of course, taste!
Picture
Picture
Apparently there are 26 of these QR "Moments in time" around the park. Next time we'll get pics of all of them for an update!
Picture
Picture
Picture
The Haunted Shack is back as an excellent photo op!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Next time we'll do the opposite picture
Picture
Before the opening ceremony we all went to check out Bear-Y Tales. I was the only one in our group of 7 who had ridden it.
Picture
Our dear friend Scott who is moving to Washington next week took an evening away from packing to join us!
Picture
A really great kick-off ceremony was held!
Picture
Picture
The park has some amazing photo ops with previous attractions. The Kingdom of the Dinosaurs one was a particular favorite of our group.
Picture
The Sky Jump Photo Op wasn't quite ready
Picture
Coasters all decked out for the 100th!
Picture
Soap Box Racers!
Picture
The previous K is now a photo op!
Picture
Kristi with the K

Picture
Knott's is definitely picturesque, even more at night. We don't visit the park at night enough, in non-Scary Farm form. =)
Picture
Expect lots of "K" pictures this year!
Picture
Great to see Summer Nights back!
Picture
Picture
Lucy and Pigpen
Picture
WHITTLES!!!
Picture
Picture
Picture
If I still surfed I'd love a Knott's 100 surfboard. Who am I kidding, I'd love it now!
Picture
A few more night pics around the park on our way out
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
We see you hiding back there "K"
Picture
Thanks again to Knott's for having us out, we had a blast and can't wait to head back!

California's Great America Passholder Preview

Picture
Last weekend I headed up to the Bay Area for a crazy impromptu road trip, and found myself at California's Great America for their passholder preview. 

This park is very quickly becoming one of my absolute favorite parks, not just in CA, but overall. Had an absolutely amazing day as you can see below!

Lots of signs inside and outside the park

One of the most beautiful park entrances ... don't @ me
Picture
Chuck says welcome back!
Picture
I was the only rider on the first Gold Striker Train of 2021, well, first public train

Social distancing markers in the queue, they weren't needed last weekend. They probably will be this weekend.
Picture
Whew, no football
Picture
The new starbucks looks great!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Mmmm, Railblazer

The Demon was running great, and has added some new effects! Can't wait for some night rides!
Picture
Not generally a fan of IPA's, but this was quite good
Picture
Lots of space for ... something. As long as Kings Island doesn't steal it again. =)
Picture
Even Sally was out enjoying the day!
Picture
Last ride of the day was Flight Deck. I know they've said they didn't shorten the belts, but they totally did. Still, there are "Big Boy Seats" on pretty much every row now.
Picture
We had a great day at the park!
Picture
Hope you enjoyed, it's so great doing updates like this again!

Knott's Berry Farm Reopening Day 2021

Picture
Last Thursday we headed out to Knott's Berry Farm for the long awaited reopening day for the park. 

We had of course been at the park for the various food festivals, but it was great being back for some of our favorite rides and more at one of our favorite parks. 

In this update we'll share our thoughts on the reopening, and what you should expect when you visit. Enjoy!
