YOU *****! HUUUUHH you woke the bears! why did you do that? :D

[Rastus]

Gatlinburg was sweet when I went there. It was fourth of July and some guy was setting off fireworks in the parking lot. The police kept trying to figure out who was setting off the fireworks and they were asking people setting out on the hotel porches. :D


Great place, and there's always something to do. Money doesn't last long though.:blah:

There's a lot of fun stuff to do down there in Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Haven't been in 6-7 years, so I might have to check it out again soon.

I heard that was an awesome water park though.

the lines were to f'n long, im kinda gettin pissed just thinking about the place, we stood in lin for an hour and 45 min to ride one slide, no joke, we only had enough time to ride like 5 things the whole time we were there

[nowukno]

We went to Dollywood Splash Country while we was there and it was a really good water park and the lines were pretty short. We got to ride everything atleast once and the longest we waited was about 1/2 an hour. But Emerald Point in Greensboro North Carolina is still the best water park i have been to , but the like schlitterbahn the lines are to long. But here is a pic of the Mountain Scream and the Corkscrews at Dollywood Splash Country , they were the best slides there ............
