r/Dorneypark

I have no idea what is going on. One day my sons (49 in and 39 in) can ride the rides together and other days they cant and need my wife or myself to go. It depends on the worker. We have had season passes for years now and it’s so confusing and honestly not fair to my boys. I wish they would actually say what qualifies as a “Supervising Companion” If my older son can ride Steel Force and Iron Menace by himself, he sure as shit can take his brother on Road Rally.

Please tell me I’m not crazy or having some sort of Mandela effect. I haven’t been to Dorney Park since I was 8 years old, and I’m 27. I’m in my second trimester and I have been having crazy dreams that have been sequencing like memories in a way.

I had a dream I was at dorney park with my family, and we were in the waterpark area in a car wash type thing you could walk/crawl through. Was that part of island waterworks or am I crazy? I asked my sister if she remembers but she was too little and only remembers it as a whole, as well as the octopus sub marine thing.

If anyone has any nostalgia to share of the 2005-2007 era of Dorney Park that would be fun, as the dream made me pretty nostalgic but if anyone can confirm that there was one it would quell a debate in the family 😅

Entered by 12:00. Walking is just 2 mins from our parking, I remember we parked at H block.

We took our stroller since we had a 2 yo and kept his belongings, food and water.
Myself , my spouse and 7 yo daughter had our own light weight bags with some chicken burgers, snacks , protein bars , and water .
Check-in process for very fast just that we had to waste 5 additional minutes since our food was wrapped in a tinfoil and the check-in doors were beeping. Security checked our bags manually with help of a stick and we were good to enter n took a picture by 12:22!

Everything was smooth.

The rides are good to enjoy n have fun with your kids. Waterkingdom was amazing for kids since they had separate are for them around 3 mini parks with 2 lazy pools and 2 wave pools at two different places.

We went to water rides first as this closes by 7pm sharp. We completed all of the kids rides n meanwhile I was covering up bigger ones. Me n my spouse took turns playing with kids n doing our bigger water rides. We were done by 5 pm ,along with our sacks.

Changed n headed towards dry rides. Targeted the kids ones 1st n got some hot fries n refilled our coke bottles! My son slept by 7 n me n my daughter covered a few bigger rides. By 9 we were done!

Exhausted n sat down for a music concert n some professional dancer’s performance! Wow it was amazing!!

We still had 3 chicken burgers that we ate n headed out by 10:00.

What an amazing day! My kids enjoyed the most ❤️

Obviously I'm going to SF New England. On one of the days that I'm going I want to bring some friends. How do I get the cheapest tickets? Please advise.
