As promised... Representation of old rides and new!!! The classic logo, with an added 40th anniversary banner... And I really like this... Keychain collectors should be happy, a lot of new chains this year, branded to individual rides... As a shotglass collector, the only shotglass for sale in the park is the new 40th anniversary one... Lots of ride t-shirts(and some sweatshirts for the B&M coasters) and coffee mugs in the Name-Year-Wonderland line, each ride a different colour... They have Minebuster, but not Wild Beast, read into that what you will...

I will def be posting... I enjoy merch, I personally collect shotglasses, my wife collects keychains, and we don't exactly collect coffee mugs, but we've got way, way more mugs than any 2 person household needs... It was enough that the mugs from our travels together were used for the coffee service at our wedding... I've been fairly critical of Wonderland's merch selection for a long time, but have noticed a big improvement over the last few years... For as much as the term "per-capita spending" get's thrown about, for far, far too long the souvenir selection was very, very poor in comparison to most parks...

The 40th Anniversary merch is finally in and for sale at the former All The Rage location (it's the shop beside Xtreme Skyflyer)... It opened yesterday... From the park's Instagram.... https://www.instagram.com/reel/CShqCHknGdu/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link My next booked reservation is tomorrow, so I hope to get some photos (and some of the merch itself of course)...

Canada’s Wonderland will have four seasons of world-class experiences, events and entertainment for guests of all ages, including a new International Food Festival featuring a diverse menu of culinary tastes, treats and drinks from around the world. In addition, the park will be expanding its culinary offerings in 2022 with the introduction of a multi-level, rustic lodge-restaurant that will be the park’s largest dining facility to date.

What is the most underrated ride at Kings Island?
I also picked FoF... I do hear The Bat get some love (mostly in enthusiast circles), but no one ever says much about FoF, and I find it enjoyable...

Blue Ice Cream is back at Wonderland!!!
Finally got my hands on the Blue Ice Cream... A bit disappointing, I think the mix might need adjusting, as the colour is a very, very light blue and it tastes like normal vanilla soft-serve with a very, very slight blueberry taste... Good size serving though, and hey, it's still ice cream, I enjoyed it...

Blue Ice Cream is back at Wonderland!!!
Complete fail... They put out the blog post on Friday, I went on Saturday... Rainbow Candy Funnel Cake: Both Locations not open Blue Ice Cream: Location not open Cherry Cider & Anniversary Ale: Available! But it had been a long shift at work, plus 6 hours in the park, plus a couple hour drive home, I didn't think alcohol was a good choice. Sangria: Location open, unsure if available Bubble waffle: Location open, product not available Churro Donut Sundae,: Location not open (and hasn't been all year) Celebration Birthday Cake: Location open, product not available Great Cookie Revival: Available, and tasted great!!! As good a job on this as on the 40th anniversary merch...

Should Haunt be more "Family Friendly?"
Is low attendance currently an issue for Haunt??? Not being a smart-ass, honestly wondering as I'm not into Haunt, so have never attended the one at KI, only the ones at CP and Wonderland...
