Having already been to both the parks in Coaster Con, what other side-trips might people be interested in?

We already have our tickets for Schlitterbahn. But what about
* Frontier City in OK
* Magic Springs in AK
* Route 66 Carousel park ( seems like it's on the way)
* Zonkers ??

Or should we just plan to take in some shows? As 3 days at the park will be a bit over-kill.

Thoughts???  Any tag-alongs ??

Adventureland is just three hours north of KC.

And you don't want to know what happens when they visit Adventureland 

Magic Springs might looks somewhat close on a map but it's a bunch of twisty mountain highways.  Zonkers is a waste of time unless you're credit whoring.  Frontier City is also way out of the way.  What about Arnolds Park in northern IA?  Have you guys been there?

Janessa a I are still on the fence about our plan as well.  We're leaning towards skipping Branson all together and just doing the WoF portion of the event.

Well we've been to adventure land, (We've even seen the movie that just came out by the same name as well).

As for shows and such in Branson, we've seen a bunch already, the only one that we're thinking of doing is Yakov.

 I was thinking more about Magic Springs & Crystal Falls. That's about 4 hrs away, and we could do it on the way to Branson, then go North into branson from AK. And come 1 day late?   

Just a thought.  Anybody else planning anything else, like boating, shows, caves??  Maybe we can get a group together?

Here's something that I found on Facebook that's KC specific.

Arnold's Park is on my quick weekend trip radar.

this has to make everyone hapy that parc didnt buy wof....i read on another site that other parc parks are having issues....

^^Yep, like the fact that Ride of Steel at Darien Lake has only one train this year because PARC didn't want to pay for the expensive part to fix the other -- oh and now the lift motor has given out so we'll see how long it takes for Ride of Steel to get back runnin.

sheesh
