A Day At Six Flags Over Georgia | The Adventuring Abbeys Vlog

The Adventuring Abbeys Day at Six Flags Over Georgia

When we took our “big” spring vacation this year – we put ONE brand new, never-before-been-to, park on our roster – and that was Six Flags Over Georgia.

We’ve driven up and down the East Coast (from our home in Pennsylvania down to Florida) multiple times, but Six Flags Over Georgia had never made the “stopping” cut, mostly because it’s a bit out of the way. (Instead of a straight shot straight south to Orlando, it’s adds on an almost 3-hour swing out to the western side of the state.)

But this spring, because we were headed to Dollywood first, and planned to stop at Fun Spot America in Atlanta next – Six Flags Over Georgia was our logical next stop.

Let’s just say: it was a “typical” “Six Flags” day.
– Security stopped Derrick (who was pushing the stroller) and told him we couldn’t bring in my little “bendy legged tripod” because it could be “used as a weapon” (and he had to run it back out to the car).
– The Flash Pass “office” opened when the park did, but we stood in line waiting for employees to show up for almost 30 minutes (there were about 50 of us standing inside the building, waiting, with ZERO employees anywhere around). We’re pretty sure that someone in the queue with us actually called the park, which triggered a group of employees to suddenly enter the building.
– Not sure if it was something I ate or what, but I did not feel good during the first half of the day. Thankfully, it passed, but then Braelynn didn’t feel good during the second half of the day.
– Lines were insanely long, a lot of the coasters were running with only one train on the tracks, and they closed off their “single rider” lanes (resulting in those single trains being sent only 50-75% full most of the time).
It was kind of crazy.

Thankfully, we went into the day with fairly low expectations, so none of this phased us. And we were just thankful that we were able to knock this park out at the beginning of our trip – setting the rest of our vacation up to be AMAZING (because anything was going to be better than our day at Six Flags Over Georgia!)

Of course, what is a post without photos? Here are a few of the highlights of our day from both my iPhone 14 Pro and “big” camera (I have a Canon R6).
