点评:The good stuff first. The new owners have improved the food selections. The place is clean. It was a Monday so the ride and food lines were short. The grandkids really liked the rides. The waterpark was especially fun for them.
Now the negatives... The exorbitant prices really put a damper on the experience. Especially bad was the poor value of the food per dollar. I have been visiting this place for 30 years. One of my favorite areas was the arcade (skeeball) near the tornado roller coaster exit. It was always packed but worth the wait and price. I sat in the shade across from the arcade twice on this visit while the grandkids rode the roller coaster. It was at least 15-20 minutes both times. ZERO people used any of the arcade booths during that time. The costs make no sense. $4 to throw one ball at a target is absurd. There were two or three arcade attendants standing around talking together because they had nothing to do. The new owners do not understand the psychology of the arcade. Elsewhere in another smaller arcade area, the kids game of picking a duck out of a bunch floating around in a circle cost $4 as well. Ridiculous. Some rides were down and there was no signage saying when they would be repaired. The underground ride a/c was out.
Bottom line... still a fun place to go, especially with young people, but expect to pay through the nose... Maybe bring a picnic lunch and eat it in the covered pavilion in the parking area.
翻译:先说好的方面吧。新业主改进了食物的种类。场所也很干净。那天是周一,所以游乐设施和食物的排队人数都很少。孙辈们特别喜欢那些游乐设施,水上乐园对他们来说尤其有趣。
再来说缺点……过高的价格着实破坏了游玩体验。最糟糕的是食物的性价比实在太低。我来这个地方已经30年了。我最喜欢的地方就是龙卷风过山车出口附近的街机厅。那里总是人满为患,但值得排队等候且价格也还算合理。这次去的时候,我两次坐在街机厅对面的阴凉处,看着孙辈们玩过山车。每次等待时间都至少有15到20分钟。可在这段时间里,根本没有一个人去玩那些街机游戏。这样的定价实在毫无道理——花4美元才能往靶子上扔一次球,简直荒谬至极。有两三个街机厅的服务员无所事事,就站在一旁聊天。新老板并不了解街机厅的运作心理。在另一个较小的街机区,孩子们玩的从一圈漂浮的鸭子中挑选出指定鸭子的游戏也需要花4美元。真是荒谬。有些游乐设施停运了,却没有任何告示说明何时会修好。地下通道里的空调也坏了。
总之……这里仍然是个好玩的去处。尤其是对年轻人来说挺合适的,但估计要花不少钱……不妨带上野餐食品,然后在停车场的有顶棚的凉亭里享用吧。
