I’m going through Dollywood withdrawal y’all! Opening weekend fell on the same weekend that everything started shutting down. I was set to attend Media Day and was so disappointed when I found out it was being postponed. The next day Dollywood closed indefinitely and I’m looking forward to the day it opens up and I can go back!!
So in a move that may be torturing myself, I’m dreaming of all the things I can do at Dollywood when it finally opens again.
Catch that first glimpse of the Dollywood Sign
Nothing beats the jolt of excitement that goes through me when I approach the entrance to Dollywood and the Dollywood sigh comes into sight. Are you even alive if you don’t get that same rush??
Get That First Loaf of Cinnamon Bread
This bread is so good and so addicting. I’ve stood in line for over an hour to get a couple loaves fresh out of the oven. And it was totally worth it!!! Chime in – what do you prefer with your cinnamon bread – icing or apple butter??
Soar Through the Air on Wild Eagle
Wild Eagle has been in my Top 2 rides for as long as I can remember. And on our last trip to Dollywood, Leah was tall enough to ride it too! So now all 4 of us can ride ALL the rides!!!! When I asked her Leah said this was what she was most looking forward to.
Sing Along at the Country Crossroads Show
Leah went through a stage where she didn’t want to ride anything and her favorite thing to do was watch shows. That started our love for the Country Crossroads show. We sing-along to all the classic country songs throughout the years and you can’t beat the pre-show with Miss Lillian the Chicken Lady!
Hop Aboard Dollywood Express
Whether it’s on Klondike Katie or CINDERella, a ride on the Dollywood Express is a staple. It’s a great way to get off your feet and take in the beautiful Smoky Mountain landscape. My favorite time to ride the Dollywood Express is during Harvest Festival and Smoky Mountain Christmas when everything is decorated for the season!!
Lunch at Front Porch Cafe
It’s hard to go wrong at any of the restaurants at Dollywood but one of my favorites is the Front Porch Cafe. The biscuits to start the meal are soo soo good and the items on the menu are all hearty, comfort foods that hit the spot. And the banana pudding for dessert is Dolly’s recipe and is a can’t miss.
While we are waiting for it to be safe enough to enjoy a day at Dollywood again, I will be dreaming of all the great things that will be waiting for us there.
Until then, stay home and stay safe!!!
