Before
heading into Holiday World to join in the HoliWood Nights
enthusiast event we had to complete Charlotte and Bond's Christmas gift
with a pair of season passes. With the wedding a month away and Bond
moving back to Southern Indiana it was a perfect gift for the two of
them. The last time Bond had a season pass was in 2006 when he was six
years old. Amusingly Holiday World still had that photo in their
system. Needless to say we had to update it as he does look a little
bit different thirteen years later.

Don't call me Shirley but this years HoliWood Nights was themed to the
classic comedy "Airplane".

One of the changes to the park that I noticed was that they Applause
Award has been removed from the fountain.

These ornaments look nice but I really liked that Holiday World had the
Applause Award front and center. I remember all of the hard work
that everyone at the park went through to make sure that Holiday World
looked amazing for the judges and to have all of that hard work
acknowledged was a really nice thing. I'm not sure why they
removed the award statue but I hope it is brought back out into the park
somewhere to acknowledge the rare achievement of winning an industry
wide award.

The new addition for 2019 is not a ride or a slide but it is a
replacement to Kringle's Kafe.
