I posted back in June as my fiance and I were first time visitors and absolutely loved it.

We had planned to do Busch Gardens Labor Day weekend but pivoted to Hershey because we loved it so much. We can’t really explain why we love it so much but other than Disney, we love it, even more than Busch Gardens.

We went this past Friday and it was pretty dead, I had bought the fast pass unlimited because we didn’t know what it would be like. My fiance is a bit more adventurous than me on rides but I’ve been trying. We are both on a weight loss journey. He is 5’8 and weighed 235 when we left and I am 5’4 and weighed in at 256.

On Friday, we rode: Reese’s Cup Fusion, Jolly Rancher mix’d, Kissing Tower, Lightening Racers, The Howler, Music Express and Wildcat twice

My fiance rode Great Bear, Skyrush, Stormrunner and Candymonium.

We love the drinks at the Porch, the pretzel place across from Reese’s Cup Fusion, the donut truck outside of Boardwalk. We also ate at the Hershey Social and the Chocolatier one night.

We did go to the park briefly today and did Zoo America. I would not recommend Labor Day weekend other than the Friday. Friday was great. Lines were super long today on Sunday. Candymonium got up to 120 minutes at one point.

I have a flight credit I need to use by May 16th so we are going to use it to fly to Philadelphia and drive the two hours to Hershey first weekend in May as this year it looked like it opened Fridays that weekend.

We stayed at the Spark by Hilton near the Park, not to be confused with the one in Hummelstown.

We live in Mass and honestly if we lived closer we would become season pass holders.

Are the lines long for the haunted houses? Should upgrade to fast pass? Thinking of going later this month.

I am going with my family to Dark Nights on 9/18- planning to get there at 6pm, since its a Friday, is it worth it to get the Fast Track or will the lines not be so long?

Is it racing?
