On our last day in Branson we visited Silver Dollar City. This amusement park is owned by the same company as Wild Adventures, so we were able to get in for half price with our season pass. Silver Dollar City is a great amusement park. It won five Golden Ticket Awards last year (the Oscars of the theme park industry). Among those awards was one for having a top ten wooden roller coaster- Outlaw Run.
Outlaw Run is my new favorite wooden coaster. It was unexpectedly amazing. After riding it the first time, Brian and I looked at each other with a "Wow! What was that!" expression. This coaster was fast, smooth, and had inversions- very unusual for a wooden coaster. The kids also loved it. Well, they loved every ride in the park and they were BOTH tall enough to ride them all. Owen even made it onto the 52" coaster.
We were at Silver Dollar City from open until close. We even stayed for the closing show. The show lasted 70 minutes but didn't feel like it because it was very entertaining. At one point there was a Beach Boys melody and my kids went crazy. They love the Beach Boys (their Greatest Hits CD was in my car on repeat all of last summer). We had a great day at Silver Dollar City. This was a perfect way to end our time in Missouri.
