Another favorite of Bonds when he was little was the Tippercanoe's.  It's good to see this classic ride still running.



Holiday World has always had a good variety of shows from Santa telling stories, to musical numbers, to the dive show, magicians, and even hypnotists.  The shows have never been world class but they have always been good.



By the time I had found myself at The Legend I have to say that what I was expecting was a slow crew that wishes they could be anywhere but here.



To my surprise the old Holiday World attitude was thankfully alive and well at The Legend.



The Legend crew was hauling getting trains loaded, getting riders pumped up to ride by interacting with them, getting the trains out on the track as quick as possible, and enthusiastically ringing out the school house bell with each train dispatched as a dare to the rest of the crews at Holiday World to up their game.  This is what it used to be on each and every coaster no matter if the park was packed or if I was practically the only one in the park.
