slushy/cotton candy shack

You know they are adding those slurpee stands every 10 ft but haven't added any new bathrooms.
Kind of ironic........

I think this year that was added. My kid shakes me down for a cotton candy everytime we pass that thing! I think it is cheaper to buy my own machine make my own CC and pack it along...

[sanddunerider]

Great pics. I love the lift hills fake dip right smack before the giant huge earth shattering drop into oblivion!

Great Pictures Sandunerider!
I wonder if the pylons near the station are not for the walkways or gangways.
Having been to Dollywood and seeing how they flyby there I question the lack of space in the building itself.
It looks like they have enough for the walkways and splitting the q into lanes, also the exit on the other side but it doesn't seem like there is enough space for the flyby.  But you never know.
I wondered about the situation in Dollywood when I saw the ride ops all wearing earplugs.  The flyby is LOUD>
Whatever we end up with that little hump after the first faux drop is sure gonna pop us out of the seats!

Thanks for the updated pics Sandune.  I know you are not a ride guy but are gonna ride this when they are done? Maybe once?

and my apple dumpling

Have you had the dumpling yet>?  I reported the Mountain Cookie was closed we last time I was down, it was a little let down but I have somehting to look forward to next time.
I understand you are not a ride guy, I just have to give you a hard time about it !!

No problem MH...

Dumpling tomorrow, elelcted NOT to get 1 sat. since we had reservations on the showboat at noon....

MHGuy, you can get those mountain cookies at the Delilah's Bakery.  I'm assuming they are the same ones. Or, did I miss something?  Is that where you buy the apple dumplings (at the mountain cookie stand?) 

On a separate note, the hubs noticed that the ugly Humana signs were gone.  Seriously, I didn't pay a bit of attention last time I was there, so...is that true?  Are they really gone???

Gilligan the apple dumplings seem to be available all year at the Mountain Cookie stand right at the exit to FITH.
Several of us are very fond of them and think they are one of the best deals for a snack on property. The cookies are ok but its the dumpling I seek !

I think an unbiased grade on a scale of 1 - 10 would be fair.

I hope they are still offered.  I love them, too!!

I am wondering if Sandune was taken over by the goodness that is the apple dumpling??  I have seen no report yet.....
