    Thank you for the shout out for our amazing little Enchanted Forest, which is my home state's theme park. This park looks "AWESOME" and the New England Fall colors adds so much to the beauty! Thank you for showing us around Justin & Ally.

    Storyland was a big part of my childhood, as my family had a vacation home in Conway. I have pictures of myself in the park from back in 1971 as a tiny baby, and have brought my children to Storyland, with hopes of 1 day bringing grand babies if I get so lucky! Thank you for flooding my memory of such wonderful happy, cherished memories of my past. Thank you for sharing!

    So many great memories at Storyland! They have adult nostalgia nights in the summer. For New England kids , Story land has been a big part of their lives.

    Going to Storyland is a right of passage for us native New Englanders, part of what i call the "Trinity" with Santas Village and the Polar Caves. Great video

    Story Land was my Disney World as a kid! We went all the time because we couldn’t afford Disney. Great place still!

    Even though I visited WDW a few times as a kid, growing up on the Massachusetts/New Hampshire border meant Story Land was my childhood theme park. Glad you got to experience it. There's also a bit of irony to the "A whale of a time" mention - we used to have a theme park in Mass called Whalom Park that had that as a slogan.

    I'm 71 years old, and visited Storyland a few times during my childhood, as well as Santa's Village. My dad loved New Hampshire, which wasn't far to go to from where we lived in Southeastern Massachusetts. It was our family's favorite vacationing area. Storyland is a great little attraction and has obviously been well kept up over the years.

    I may be the only person in the Randomland Fandom that was super excited to see you guys in Storyland! I live in Nor Cal now, but grew up in New Hampshire and my brothers and Sisters and I have many childhood memories going to Storyland as little kids. This punched me in the face with nostalgia unexpectedly lol. Please Please Please check out Sturbridge Village in Massachusetts if you guys get a chance while you're over there too! That's another place that was a childhood favorite. Love these trips to the east coast You and Ally have been taking

    • @Grahamt978
      @Grahamt978 11 місяців тому

      No there’s actually lots of us feeling very nostalgic. Boy how lucky were we having New Hampshire Beauty right in our backyard. I hope someday I’m lucky enough to share Storyland with my grand babies, not much has changed and I love that!

    This is so much fun! Storyland is my hometown theme park! It’s only about 15-20 minutes from our home and we spend the summer there with our kiddos, usually passing the time until we can get back to Disney again 😂Thank you for the great video! That is how we feel about Storyland too ❤

  • @Grahamt978
    @Grahamt978 11 місяців тому +2

    Does anyone remember Storyland used to run a deal where if you came into the park after 2, they gave you free ticket to return on another day. It was a great deal for those if us with summer house. Such great memories!

    I grew up in Maine and this was our Disney World before there was a Disney World. We went all the time. The next time you are in New Hampshire you need to drive North to Jefferson and visit Santa's Village - another classic kid park.

    • @Grahamt978

    Living in New Hampshire years ago a friend of mine took my son and the neighborhood kids to Storyland. I always remember one of the boys was convinced the Cinderella horses were real! Now those kids are all grown men now,but i still get a chuckle when i think of it. My son who is now 39 and has his own business in Hudson (Rustys antiques and indoor flea market) still has fond memories of this neat place! Thanks for letting me see what its all about! Peace!

    I have been watching your videos for a long time and really enjoy your content. It allows me to travel to all of these places but not physically go. I'm currently a full time college student in Ohio and haven't ever really had the extra time to do much traveling but am really looking forward to it once I graduate in the near future. It would be such an honor to run into you someday or plan a day together. Out of curiosity, have you ever visited any of Ohio's major attractions? I am planning a family trip this coming Christmas to a place called, "The Inn at Christmas Place," in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Have you ever been there? I really appreciate everything you do and it would be awesome if we ever had time to talk.

They use to have live animals, now they have 3D cutouts of farm animals… still cute tho. And few years ago they added a big castle 🏰 Idelwild Park and Soakzone has really nice history to learn about. 😃 enjoy your adventures wherever you go! 👍

    I grew up in NY and went to an amusement park called Storytown. Did some research because I didn’t realize it was in New Hampshire. Turns out this one did use to go by Storytown but they renamed it to Storyland because of the one in NY already using the name Storytown. Interesting they were so close!

    In Sacramento we have a place called fairytale town. It’s similar to this except there are no rides, you are allowed to climb on everything. So it’s basically a themed playground. The giant shoe is a slide! There was also “old McDonald’s farm” petting zoo. It was so cheap so we all went on field trips there often. The cool thing it is in a public park, right across the street was the zoo, and also in the park is funderland which is a tiny amusement park with rides but no cool theme.

    Oh wow you got out to Story Land! This is a rare case of JustinScarred visiting a place I'm quite familiar with! That is not Disney World!
    My kid has outgrown wanting to come here but I always liked it. And coaster enthusiasts have a good reason to go there in Roar-O-Saurus.
    That Splash Battle is my second favorite ride there, after Roar-O-Saurus. Great on a hot summer day.
    If you're staying near Lake Winnepesaukee, a great place to visit is Funspot in Weirs Beach, Laconia. It advertises itself as the world's biggest arcade--I don't know if that's true or not, but it's got the largest collection of classic 1970s-80s arcade games I've ever seen.
