Carowinds Theme Park, Charlotte North & South Carolina

My complaint about Carowinds not having a log flume or a rapids ride as a few days before our visit Carowinds announced the addition of Rip Roarin' Falls.

Rip Roarin' Falls is going to be a log flume which is much needed at Carowinds.  It will be the tallest log flume in the world with a hundred foot plunge into the water.  This is absolutely a great addition to Carowinds.

After finishing up our day by lapping Fury 325 as much as we could we stopped by the Grand Carousel.

The Grand Carousel is a classic hand carved carousel that was built by the Philadelphia Toboggan Company in 1923.

With one last on the Grand Carousel our adventure to Carowinds came to an end.   Carowinds is a fun park with some great rides.

Next up we head off to Dollywood.
