![]() ![]() I loved the costumes that the wait staff had – so beautiful! And boy – I was totally in for a surprise! I had no idea what to expect when I got there (so much for me paying attention to what we were doing on Brandcation!). We also visited Dixie Stampede during this trip for a dinner show. ![]() I’m definitely looking forward to returning to Pigeon forge with my family so we can spend days enjoying the parks and activities that Dollywood and Pigeon Forge offers! I got to ride the Dollywood steam train as well – which was probably one of my favorite things I did at Dollywood that day! I took a video of the steam engine playing a song for us:Īfter the day was done, I was certainly ready for a nap – but I left with awesome memories of a really fun day with friends. We learned about the care that Dollywood uses in taking care of people with special food needs – and how they really go out of their way to help them eat well while they’re at Dollywood. I’ve never before had collard greens, so I was a little nervous to try them –but I ate them all up! ![]() We ate at a great spot – enjoying pork, beef, mashed potatoes, beans, coleslaw, and collard greens. I have never before seen so many people happy about their job, and being so outwardly helpful to the customers! Shops like Woodworking, blacksmith, and glassblowing – home made breads and food that was good southern, home-cookin. I also loved the Mystery Mine roller coaster – which has an 85 foot vertical drop – and lots of hairpin turns to keep you screaming.īut I think the thing that blew me away the most was the variety of shops and the employees. I went on as many roller coasters as I could that day – and rode Dollywoods new ‘winged’ roller coaster – the Wild Eagle, and by far the best wooden coaster I’ve ever ridden, Thunderhead – it gets up to 55mph, and doesn’t throw your head around so much that you get a super-headache. Dollywood is ANYthing but normal in that sense.ĭollywood takes a totally different approach to their theme park: From the beautiful large trees, classic store fronts, and home-made treats – Dollywood had me in awe the entire day. Dollywood is hardly ‘just another theme park.’ When I think of theme parks, I think of crazy kids (Especially under-dressed teenagers), rude college-break employees, and expensive french fries. Dollywood is a major reason to visit Pigeon Forge, TN. ![]()
