      Thank you! Yes, there’s so many things we wanted to eat, but didn’t have the stomach capacity for 😂! Multiple return trips are needed!

    I had so much fun watching you guys enjoy and experience Knoebels for the first time. I live just about 2.5 hours away in New Jersey and do one to two Knoebel runs a year. Been going since I was little in the 70s. It is far and away my favorite park .. my happy place
    Couple of things, Knoebels is well know for ride restorations, this year Paratrooper and the Log Flume are getting the full treatment. The flume should be back soon, but I think Paratrooper will likely be in refurb mode all year. The Haunted House has alway not be included in the daily pass to discourage vandalism. A lot of those ride were targeted by teenagers in the 70s, so the Knoebels family always wanted it to stay special. The ride was kind of a celebration of recovering from the major flood in rhe early 70s.
    Did you guys ride Flyer, Bumper Cars or the Grand Carousel? All three are considered the top one or two their type. The train ride is a can't miss too, just very relaxing. As for food, the Lemonade from the stand that looks like a lemon is fresh squeezed right in front of you, so good. The frozen apple cider slushy near Satellite is super unique. As for pierogies, The Alamo has a full dinner tradition onions and butter version and the stand behind the mini golf has fried ones. I could go on and on, but you'll find the thing I mentioned and so much more on future trips. I honestly want to jump in the vehicle and head there right now after watching you vid!

      Wow, thanks for your kind words and all the info! We are far from "professional" vloggers and screw a lot of things up, but we have a great time in the process, LOL! We didn't do the carousel, but it looks like that'll be first on our list when we return because other people have mentioned it to us too. I'll be in the lookout for those perogies as well!

    No, you have no control in the Satellite ride. Don’t think you actually go upside down either.

      Thanks for the clarification! From where I was standing it looked like it went upside down, but maybe it was just the way I was angled.

      @@Themeparkgirlz He's correct. They technically never go upside-down. And the spin's also a controlled spin, the rider has no control of it. It was a one-and-done for me. :)

      You get close to upside down, but never more than maybe 70%. Being 6'4", I've retired Satellite from trip experience. I'm pushing maximum height for that ride.

    I have heard that the reason why they charge like they do for the Haunted Mansion is to cut down on teenagers causing damage to the show scenes. I am a former Disney Cast Member who worked attractions for 9 years. I can tell you how brats used mustard and ketchup on the animatronics 😂
