Title: Photo TR: Great Adventure from the lake...
Post by: ChuckR on January 01, 2007, 11:14:37 AM

Well on Friday, me and Ian took a trip out to GADV. I wanted to test my new camera I got for Christmas, plus I wanted some KFC.  ;D

Here we are testing out the camera at the gas station...

Ian...

So, after the 25 minute drive out there. We arrive at the lake and snap some pictures. In one of the pictures, it looks like Eruption is missing a tower? Also, looks like Chiller hasn't been touched yet and thats basically all I could see. Here are the photos...

I'm still getting use to everything on the camera, so I apologize for the quality...

There you can see, it only looks like two towers are up?

I like this...

Well that's about it, there is a big lot thats been cleared of trees right in front of the park. It's probaly for a house, but who knows. Now onto KFC, this is definitely the best one around and I recommend those honey barbaque wings.

 Thanks for the lake pictures! Another great spot to take pictures is from rt 526. Did you sit in the KK seat at KFC?  Anyway,  I can't wait until the park opens.

Chuck, three years ago I took the very same pictures. Thing is they also show Eruption missing a tower. Maybe it's just the angle...looks for the picture to post.

Thanks for the great trip report.

You know we love a place when we just have to go have chicken at that particular KFC!

GADVwow, contemplating a trip across an interstate on the west side of Atlanta, for some reason or other! :)

Thanks for the update Chuck.  Btw- I'm not positive but I think there is a Nitro support that is blocking the 3 post just perfectly.  I'm not aware of anything happening with Eruption so for me, it would come as a rather big surprise.

LOL Chuck, lets go and we can invite Jerry too, why not??? :)


Hannah, the KK seat is sacred, you mustn't use it if the park isn't open. How dare you, rubbish.

Thanks for the pics Chuck, maybe I'll go too and show you all up with my enormous.... ZOOM lens.
