 Hey friends today We are hanging out at Knoble's Amusement Resort in Eliesburg, Pennsylvania This is my favorite park outside of Disney and it's a free admission park So you don't have to pay to get in and they have some of the best wooden roller coasters in the world an awesome Haunted mansion and the food is so incredible I figured we come on out ride some rides eat some food and have a beautiful Knoble's kind of day Anywho's let's go do this. I Love this park so much and I came here so many times as a kid and like I mentioned It's a free admission park. So you only pay per ride It doesn't cost anything to actually go inside the park and the food is so good. Look at this Oasis cafeteria presents Barbecue chicken weekends half a chicken stuffing and two vegetables for 1075 You just can't beat those prices If you Google like top 10 wooden roller coasters I guarantee Knoble's will pop up on that list somewhere and that's not all they have They have tons of family-friendly rides some of the best dark rides in the world too Like the Haunted Mansion here is so incredible and black diamond is one of my all-time favorite rides And I can't wait to actually show you guys around The park itself is nestled away into the woods And it's awesome because they have like free cookout spots where you can bring your own food and Grill out and have a little picnic and they also rent out cabins too So you can literally just spend a whole entire weekend at Knoble's and it's very budget-friendly My mom loves coming to this park because she doesn't like to ride a lot of rides And it doesn't cost her anything they have over 60 different attractions here And she gets to just come in and pick and choose whatever rides She does want to ride and you can buy tickets per attraction Or they also have like wristbands where you can ride all day long and we'll check out the prices once we get inside When I mentioned they have some of the best theme park food It's because it's all like old-school style amusement food potato pancakes pierogies hot dogs they have spaghetti dinner nights and Meatloaf nights and it's really amazing because the people that have been cooking the food have been cooking the food for a very long time They also have one of the best carousels in Existence it is so awesome because you have to reach out and grab rings and hopefully Snag the brass ring and it's so cool. And like I said, I'm gonna show you everything. I'm gonna show you everything I love about this park Because today is a weekend. They're not doing the ride all day wristbands instead you have to buy individual tickets per attraction and The attractions like usually go from an average of like three dollars and fifty cents to four dollars and fifty cents per ride So we ended up getting a hundred and fifty dollars worth of tickets and they never expire So we'll hang on to these and probably use them next year The family is all here. We've got Bon Bon. We've got mom and then we've got Ariel look it. Hi Ariel Hi I'm sure a lot of you guys have been wondering who Ariel is and she is our niece My mom and sister are actually taking care of her She is partially blind and deaf and this is her first time at an amusement park So I'm so excited to take her on some rides and see how she's gonna like it Here is a look at the map and like I said this park is all the way tucked into the woods You're just surrounded by nature and it's awesome because you see these big roller coasters Of course, we've got the Phoenix, which is an award-winning wooden roller coaster Then they have twister over here. You've got impulse the hot and mansion There are so many things to do and like I said, it's a lot bigger when you see it on a map like this The first ride we're gonna be going on today is one of the most unique roller coasters I have ever been on and I'm gonna be recording on the ride itself But I need to wear a body harness and this one's gonna be super fun because it's a trackless Roller coaster and it is just so awesome. I'm so happy that it's open today And here it is flying turns Canobals a trackless roller coaster only one in the world. They told us we couldn't build it, but we did anyway I am so excited This is flying turns right here and it's so awesome because these carts actually have wheels on them And it picks you up and takes you into these big circular Like things like right here and just lets you go when you go sliding all over the place It is such a unique experience I cannot wait to ride and sometimes you come here. It's closed But not today. It's open and you go pretty high up. Look. I mean it gets you you go up there Oh Look at my feet. Oh There it is It's just literally gonna drop us in there and let us just go. Oh boy Here we go, oh boy Oh Current position prepare for descent Wow, I love that so much I got a little scared you guys might have heard me stream a little bit Over do we still have more? No, oh it is over Always too cool though Was so much fun I screamed a little bit because when you hit the embankment I honestly felt like I was gonna tip over I was I was hanging on for dear life, but I love it I would do it again, and it's like I said such a unique ride All right now that we got to ride a ride I think it's time for Ariel's first ride her first-ever ride at an amusement park. Are you excited Ariel? Huh? She doesn't know yet. No, not excited Not excited yet. Oh, yeah We were trying to decide what ride we should pick for Ariel's first ride and we all decided on the Carousel I feel like that's the perfect that's the perfect first ride for anybody And like I mentioned this carousel special because it has the ring grabbing and I'm hoping that we get a brass ring If we grab the brass ring then we get to ride again Once it starts going it's gonna make a little like ding sound and from this little yellow box It's gonna drop down and you're gonna see people reaching out and grabbing it should start happening as soon as all the tickets are Collected you see there's actually an attendant on there collecting tickets from all the people riding the horses Three rides says keep your arms hands and feet inside Well, this is the complete opposite because you got a like literally fish hook out one of those rings Here we go is this where we're going this is the one huh taking this one right there Yeah Three rings so far can I get one more? No brass one though. How do you sign more? She wants more You want to do it again? Ariel loved the carousel and when we got off she was signing more like she wanted to do it again She was signing more more that is so awesome. I'm glad she enjoyed it. I was a little nervous I'm like, oh man, maybe she's gonna get super like afraid But I feel like the carousel was the perfect ride the music the the horses. It's it's literally the perfect first ride Now it's time to go get some food maybe some potato pancakes lead the way mom To the potato pancake building Yeah, bonnie. Did you bring did you rent that uh Like a little uh, yeah the wagon. Oh, wow you can rent them 12 bucks. Well, I think she likes it. Look at her My mom wants some potato cakes So we're gonna get some potato cakes, but we could get pizza rolls chicken tendies pickles applesauce and even gatorade Gatorade and extra liquid cheese Another cool thing about cannobals is you can bring your dog and look at this is Aussie Yeah, you can actually ride the train with your dog. I would love to bring Gracie up here. That is so awesome Oh, well, thank you guys. Have a great one All right, we've got the potato pancakes and some fresh squeezed lemonade and this is perfect Now this is just a little snack before we have dinner later on tonight I think we're definitely getting that barbecue chicken dinner, but look at those potato pancakes. Oh, they're just so good Potato cakes are served with applesauce and sour cream. I just like the applesauce I like putting applesauce on my pork chops on my potato cakes the sour cream I'm not the biggest fan of but take a look at these beauties They fry them up right in the back there like you see them They have the batter and everything and they're very crunchy and flavorful Oh, I'm so excited. Look at this Mom, why are you creeping a pickle in my picture? I have to show you the pickle. I have to show everybody the pickle What do you got a pickle? Mom, go ahead and show you a pickle. I have a pickle. I like pickles I have two pickles. I have two pickles. I have two pickles. Hey, hey, delicious Delicious Well, there you go. You have it. The pickles are delicious at Cannobals along with the potato cakes. That's a wrap. That's a reveal That's a reveal Ariel's eating french fries. Oh no, she loves the potato pancakes. Oh really? Wow I guess she does like them All right, enough of the potato pancakes. They are so delicious But I don't want to get full because we're gonna have dinner at the oasis later Get some of that barbecue chicken dinner and the meatloaf. Oh, I almost forgot about the meatloaf It is so good here. So we're gonna we're gonna move along go ride some more rides Maybe the phoenix or maybe the haunted mansion. It is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year the haunted mansion So we're definitely doing those two. I mean we're definitely doing those two plus twister plus black diamond Plus this bluge plus a lot. We're doing a lot of rides And we have made it over to the phoenix Some say this is the greatest wooden roller coaster that has ever existed and it is so awesome We're gonna ride it in a second now. It looks like it's uh four dollars and fifty cents four dollars and fifty cents per ride We're gonna have to switch over to the gopro because i'm not even gonna attempt to bring this on this ride But look at the sign behind me world's finest roller coaster the finest Bonnie we got our own car Boy Wow Look at this view Here we go We're at the top I'm so scared Amazing Insane we ended up getting our own ride vehicle our own ride car and it is so thrilling I sacrificed my hat to the phoenix though. I lost it and now I feel like I need to buy a new hat Maybe I'll get a cannobals one Now it's time for the haunted mansion a terrifying adventure in darkness and because of the 50th anniversary They've got some cool photo opportunities Including one of the ride vehicles and then they've got a cake over here that says 50 on it a little horse carriage I'm so excited. This is such a great ride Like if you like that scary dark ride, it's so amazing. I absolutely love it I ended up buying a new hat because I didn't want to go hatless all day And it's time to go on the haunted mansion now There's going to be some flashing lights and you know jump scares inside here But I also wanted to point out that it cost three dollars and fifty cents to ride the haunted mansion And right now because of the 50th they're selling commemorative tickets So we bought this and we get to give them this ticket to get on the haunted mansion And then we get to keep it and they're doing sets of four. I like it. It looks really cool. But now time to head in Even the back of the card say 50th on it. That's too cool I got scared a couple of times of course always in the same exact spots as I always get scared at And also they've added a couple of new things in there for the 50th anniversary And I love that. I thought it was really cool. And now we're going to go from a haunted mansion to a water ride We were going to go ride the water ride But we wanted to go over and have dinner first And normally I like to go to the oasis for the barbecue chicken dinner and the meatloaf But our good friend dr. Ernie and lia Recommended us to go to the alamol, which is an actual sit-down restaurant here at cannobals And I've never eaten here before and the menu looks actually amazing So we're gonna try this out for the first time. They've got homemade soups hot sandwiches Land and sea combos and even italian specialties. And this is everything I like. So we're doing this one We got our table and they allowed my mom to Drive her wheelchair in but we have to take the wheelchair out, which means I get to drive it out I'm backing up. I'm backing up backing up backing up backing up backing up backing up backing up Scooter here we go Gonna park it right over here right next to the alamo sign welcome to the alamo coming in hot I almost I almost ticked it over Oh It's very sensitive The restaurant itself was voted 19 times as the best park food in the world in the world That's impressive that I mean in the world and they even have specials Look today's special is chicken and rice soup veggie corn and enjoy the beautiful day Enjoy the beautiful day Starting off with some good old birch beer some white birch beer. I love it I love coming up to the pennsylvania getting the good old birch beer and cream soda. They've got all the works pennsylvania dutch I decided on going with the chicken and waffles because I heard a lot of people talking about it And then also the chicken and rice soup and I'm very excited I was all in for the barbecue chicken, but I felt like I wanted to try something different this time You know what I mean? Even though I'm gonna miss the meatloaf You know the place is fancy when they unwrap the crackers for you Look at that That's impressive. So we got the soups and we got the salads. Look at that The croutons look good. Yeah, they do they look homemade. Yeah, they do look homemade The soup is definitely home. Everything in here is homemade. Look at that. Oh Much too good. Look at the chunks of chicken in there. I'm all about it Time for the soup Good soup The food has arrived and look at all of this We got so much the portion sizes are huge. I ended up getting the chicken and waffles and it's not like your usual chicken and waffles it's like breaded like unbreaded chicken mashed potatoes and it's homemade waffles and then they've got homemade filling homemade gravy Bonnie ended up getting the turkey dinner. Look at that gravy. That gravy looks so good Yeah, I'm already excited mom ended up getting the turkey and gravy too. Look at that That's gonna be oh everything just looks amazing. I'm ready Instead of using syrup on the waffles we're using gravy on the waffles Look at this. Oh my lanza What did I just do here? I like oh my lanza. Holy moly. Take it easy now summer down now summer down All right, we got waffles chicken stuffing and mashed potatoes in one bite with gravy Run it all in one bite. That's the way Everything is so good. But the stuffing is on another level. Look at that little like crispiness that they have in there and if you dip it right into the right into the gravy Oh, that is too good. I might take an extra side of stuffing or filling whatever you want to call it My mom's feeding me. Yes. Yes, try the turkey Hold it. Very good. What was the last time you did that? I don't think I've ever really thought about putting gravy on waffles before but the combo is pretty good It is pretty decent and I like it. It's definitely a unique thing The alamo did not disappoint the food was fantastic and I was going to order dessert and they told me We don't have dessert because we have so many amazing desserts out in the park They don't want everyone sitting inside the restaurant. They want to go out and explore So, uh, maybe we'll get a dessert later on right now We just had this gigantic meal and the only thing I can think of is the best way to digest is go on extreme wooden roller coaster I pointed this out last time I was here But I love how there are homes inside the park. Like look at this. These are all homes right here and then Twister the roller coaster is right there. Like we have to cut through Like a little residential kind of area here. It's actually getting in there now I don't know if anyone lives in these homes still. I mean that one definitely looks like someone's living there Look at that. Maybe they work for the park. They got a little butterfly tent But you're not allowed to go in these areas. You can't actually access them. It has separate entry ways But here is twister another awesome award-winning wooden roller coaster. Look at that Check that out Goes all the way up to the top Look at how high that is for a wooden roller coaster Wow The thing about wooden roller coasters it gives you this sense that it's dangerous and it's scary because it's wooden You know and it's creaky and it makes a lot of noise But boy when you hit these little embankments here Like it's like call the twister because you go in circles over and over again You see how there's one track here one track here. You just spin round and round watch It's actually going to be coming by any second now Look at that. Wait and it's going to come back again This isn't even the highest climb yet Oh my lord Twister scares the life out of me the way you hit those turns Like I you come out of here. I really thought we were going to lose it that we were going to go right over the side Look at my heart was literally All right, now it's time for the water ride body loves this ride She loved it at Hershey park and now we're here. This one's a little bit different though Look, it's actually a little wood log kind of like how splash mountain used to be but except for it says cannobals on it This ride is three dollars and fifty cents a person and also it was four dollars and fifty cents for a twister I don't know if I told you that and I looks like you get wet on it. So I'm a little nervous Oh boy, here we go Oh, it's a steep climb Look at that drop over there. Wait. What a second. Oh boy. I forgot about this one This is such a nice relaxing boat ride Right now and I didn't sign up to get wet. Oh, I said at the end of the night, we'll do something like this The big drop Here we go My pants are soaked and I was not ready for that the other rides like that You don't get that wet on like I know the big drop one with a big tidal wave I don't know if you guys see if you guys seen the her sheep park video Definitely check out the clip of bonnie Standing in front of that thinking she wasn't gonna get wet and then all of a sudden these people just started running past her And she got demolished. It was hysterical, but that ride was still fun And I got maybe two more rides. Maybe two I saved one of my favorites for the last This is black diamond and this is such a unique ride Honestly, you would never expect it to be the ride it is once you get inside there At first you think it's like a nice educational ride about coal mining But it is so scary and it actually takes you to centrilia the town that uh was on fire From below like the underneath the ground the coal mines caught on fire And that place in trillia is right around the corner and I cannot wait to show you this Now there are going to be flashing lights and it might be a little scary, but uh, it's well worth it Something else in the world like black diamond Honestly, one of my all-time favorite rides. I hope the video came out Well, I know the gopro doesn't really come that the gopro really doesn't come out good in low light But uh, I definitely highly suggest you try to ride it at least once it's so amazing, especially if you ever come here I'm running back to my mom in ariel because we're going to try to ride one last ride and this one's uh Squoosh or the smooch. It's where you get completely soaking wet And uh, we're going to try to take Ariel on I think I think she might like it. Look, there's another one of those houses Right next to flying turns here All right, here we go the squoosh Oh boy Three dollars and fifty cents We're gonna get soaked Completely drenched. I mean we didn't stand a chance. Ariel liked the ride. I don't think she liked the water though It was kind of funny because once she got down she kept on uh, signing for rain, right? Yeah, it was But overall we had a great day at cannobals and I hope when you guys watch this video You realize why I love it so much. It is such a family Fun park. I mean everyone got to enjoy their time here. The food was fantastic The rides were amazing and I love it. So I hope you enjoyed the video. I enjoyed making it We'll see you next time. Bye Bye Ariel
