Carowinds, Charlotte, North Carolina

Being a big fan of the movie "Jaws" Bond had to have a picture of him next to this shark.  Things like this don't bring in the guests, instead they add to the theming and help us all leave the outside world behind once we enter the gates.  I wish more parks would remember that and add theming instead of forgetting to add it or removing it.

The Ricochet Roller Coaster at Carowinds, Charlotte, North Carolina

Ricochet was to be our second mouse coaster of the trip and the second coaster named Ricochet.

Like the other Ricochet at Kings Dominion this ride is from Mack Rides.  Instead of being an extended mouse like the one to the north this one is just the plane Jane standard mouse.

Don't think I'm talking this ride down because trust me it rocks.
