TylerRRC1972 Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Left for Hershey on Tuesday July 12, we Shopped at the Tanger Outlets First and then Checked into The Hotel Hersey at about 2:30, Beautiful Hotel, We had Lunch and then checked out Hershey Gardens. At 7:00 we headed over to the park and got my Five Year Old Nephew on a couple rides: Balloon Flite, Ladybug, Resse's Extreme Cup Challenge, Swing Thing, Monorail and the Mini Pirate, we then caught the Shuttle back to hotel and got back in the room at 11:00. On Wednesday July 13 we got to the park at about 10:00 and the first thing we did was buy the Season Drink Cups, 2 Cups $9.99 each, refill are then $1.05, we got on Resse's Extreme Cup Challenge x2, Balloon Flite, Swing Thing, Mini Pirate x2, Dizzy Drums and Cocoa Cruiser x2. By this time from walking all the hills my nephew was tired, so we stopped and had Dippin Dots and a Pretzel, we got walking again and Did the Hershey Plinko, Met Miss Peppermint Patty, then moved on to more Rides, Dry Gulch Railroad, Ferris Wheel(love GA's so much better), Pony Parade, Granny Bug and Crazy Mouse x2, played the frog game and had Lunch at Chickie's & Pete's. We then wrapped up the Day with the Kissing Tower x2, Frog Hopper X2 and some Games, Caught the Shuttle back to the hotel and went to the amazing outdoor pool, my nephew got his shirt, shoes and one sock off and Thunder sounded, the whistles blew and needles to say my nephew was upset so we went back to our room and rested. Later on the storms passed and we went back to the pool, we were the only ones there and he really enjoyed it, they have Jets Shooting up, a Mushrrom and two large slides, the staff and lifeguards are amazing. On Thursday July 14 we got to the park at about 11:00 and it was even hotter then Wednesday so we got our cups filled right away, then did Mini-Himalaya, Balloon Flite, Swing Thing x2, Bizzy Bees, Ladybug, Mini Pirate x 2, Dizzy Drums and Cocoa Cruiser x3 including twice by himself, we then stopped off for Dippin Dots and a Pretzel Again and then moved on to Mini Scrambler, Livery Stables, Trailblazer, Red Baron x2 and Convoy x2. There are a lot of Marking around Convoy, Red Baron, Frog Hopper and Flying Falcon, Looks like Hershey may be getting a Drop Tower in 2017. We then did a lot of Games in the AC and went back to the hotel. After a nice Rest and Cool Down we took the Shuttle back to the park and went to Chocolate World, This place is amazing, the tour was cute, the food was good and the gift shop was out of THiIS WORLD, it was so BIG, did a lot of shopping and headed back to the hotel, another night in the pool and a good night sleep. On Friday July 15, I took the shuttle to the park at 8:45 and just ran into chocolate world to get my nephew the Jolly Rancher Stuffed Toy, then headed back to the hotel for breakfast and left for Jersey at Noon. I really like, but they need People Movers, They have a Sky Ride, Train Ride and Monorail with no stops. Centralized Park Entrance: GA, People Mover: GA, Parking Lot and Lot Transportation: HP, Beautiful and Clean Park Grounds: HP. Will be going to Following Parks in the Coming Weeks, Santa's Village, Story Land, Thomas Land and maybe Six Flags New England.

SatansHockey Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) I enjoy reading reports like this since so many of us are focused on coasters. It's nice to read a different perspective. Did you make your own chocolate bar or go on the how to make chocolate ride at chocolate world?

TylerRRC1972 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 We didn't make our own chocolate, we took the free tour. The little guy is getting more courageous, did Cocoa Cruiser last year and again this year, he loved Wild Mouse and Trail Blazer, told me he now wants to do Harley Quinn, The Dark Knight, Skull Mountain and Runaway Mine Train.

IBOK Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 I would recommend that order too. Took one of mine on RMT first and that scared her enough to not want to try the others 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Great report, Hersheypark has always seemed like one of the best parks for kids who want to try coasters with the low height requirements compared to some other parks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyc98 Posted July 20, 2016 Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 I remember visiting Hershey and SDL was my first upside down rollercoaster and was the ride that made me obsessed with rollercoasters. Love this park and nice to see a TR from it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pashacar Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 I remember visiting Hershey and SDL was my first upside down rollercoaster and was the ride that made me obsessed with rollercoasters. Love this park and nice to see a TR from it. Same! Such a good starter ride. I'll also never forget the time my brand new Hersheypark baseball cap flew off mid-loop . . . and fell right into the lap of my grandpa, who was waiting on the midway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 It was also my first looping coaster. The first time I tried the coaster I didn't really like it and now it has become one of my favorite coasters in the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
