I love Kennywood. Wonderful, beautiful park that is certainly a summer tradition in Pittsburgh. I try to go once a year and when my sister and niece asked me to take a day off and go, I was all in. We had a wonderful day, albeit a little warm but there weren't long lines and it wasn't crowded. The roller coasters are awesome even though I only got on 2 (I was surprised at that, the niece rode the Jack Rabbit for the first time:)! Awesome!). Rode some calmer rides like the train and the turtles and even cooled off on Raging Rapids (of course rotating under the waterfall so everyone in the boat is drenched). Stopped and got Potato Patch fries...if you are going to Kennywood they are a must! Oh, the first basket I got were so good that I went and got more! They were cooked to perfection the day we were there. They are terrific with the bacon and cheese however ketchup and garlic salt are tasty too!:) Also, stop and get a hand dipped ice cream cone near Kiddyland. Wow! So satisfying especially on a hot day! It is vanilla ice cream atop a cone and the ice cream is dipped in chocolate and rolled in either chocolate or rainbow sprinkles or peanuts topped with a cherry! Yum! The niece got the deep fried oreos which she loves! (They are pretty good as I have tried them before) and don't forget funnel cake although it was dry the day we were there. Bummer! Their gardens, fountains, and rides come together for an awesome amusement park, a Pittsburgh tradition...one that should be a tradition forever!
