We're headed to Dollywood which is located in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. This theme park receives a lot of attention due to the co-investor in the property, Dolly Parton. While we are used to the parent park, Silver Dollar City, in Branson, Missouri, we thought we should finally check this place out. We did spot some similarities in this park (which used to be called Silver Dollar City, Tennessee). Then again, we also spotted many, many differences. I won't go into all of that here. In the interest of brevity, let me introduce our day at Dollywood by just offering the first three photos on my photostream. The first is a shot of our first ride of the day - Thunderhead - which reminds us a lot of ThuNderaTion at SDC. The second picture is on top of one of the concession stands; I really appreciated the detail and cleanliness. Then the third photo is of Blazing Fury, which is the Dollywood version of our original Fire in the Hole. BF has received a major update and all of the features seem to be working inside of it, while FitH is seeing its last year of operation this year, presumably to be replaced in the spring of '24 with FitH 2.0, for lack of a better name.
