I joined the Vectren Activity Club when I first became an employee, and everyone knows that I love Holiday World so when the date was on the itinerary of activities I immediately asked Bobby if she wanted to go with me. Bobby Ramsey, is the best friend a girl could have! She lives about 3 hours from here now and she made the drive to go to Holiday World with me!!
God Bless Bobby, for not only making the long drive, but for spending the majority of the day with me at the waterpark. (She mostly rides roller coasters when she goes). I warned her ahead of time that I would wait for her if she wanted to ride any of those rides but she said no she would be happy with me in the waterpark.
I did introduce her to the Gobbler where you shoot turkeys, the Turkey Whirl and Plymouth cafe where we enjoyed our lovely lunch from Vectren. She had never been past the Voyage before and didn't know those other places existed, she does now! She didn't even know there were 2 wave pools and lazy rivers, I, of course, introduced her to the Bahari lazy river and Bahari wave pool.
Upon entering the waterpark, Bobby wanted to "look" at the Mammoth. We looked at it from the observation deck, and because there were no lines anywhere, despite 3 other company picnics being held there that day, we decided to give it a try. We shared the raft with 4 little pre teen aged girls who were rather informative about this ride we were about to embark on. I told the one to my left that I hated regular roller coasters, in which she replied "I bet after you ride this one you will love regular roller coasters and will be riding them the rest of the day." Don't bet on it honey. I was a little nervous but I made it. The main reasons I rode it, is One Bobby made the 3 hour trip to come with me, and Two No lines. I would never have stood in a line for an hour to ride the thing but now I can say i rode it.
The lunch was delicious they had barbecue, fried chicken or hamburgers. We both had the barbecue which was yummy! They also served green beans, the best macaroni & cheese, rolls, and a delicious brownie. Good times!
We missed the dive show because we stayed in the waterpark until we were literally kicked out. The water was very warm, for those that thought I was crazy that I was going swimming when the weather was only in the 70's. It was when we came out of the water when we became shivery. We had a great day, it is always good to hang out with my bestie!! We never run out of things to talk about, and we always find things to laugh at and about!
Holiday World was a success! Thank you Vectren for a wonderful day shared with my bestie! :)
