Review of Blue Bayou Dixie Landin

I don't normally write reviews, but after visiting this park....I felt I must. The park itself isn't too bad. They offer many rides including amusement park rides. I love how its two parks in one. The parks are not managed well. Ride wait times were really long and they didn't have to be. Most water rides have more than one line to get on the ride itself, but they are so understaffed that only 1 or 2 lines are open on each ride so it creates a bottleneck with long wait times. The pavement is really rough and hot on your feet so water shoes are a necessity unless you want blistered feet. If you want to get on the lazy river, you will need to fork over 5 dollars to rent a tube. So you pay 40 some dollars to get in, 5 dollars to park, pay to rent a locker and they still charge for a tube...Ridiculous. Finally, what really got me was the food service. I ordered a fountain drink (Coke) and when they gave it to me they forgot the straw. I asked for a straw and was told that fountain drinks do not come with straws, only daiquiris and lemonades came with straws. I have really sensitive teeth so I required a straw. I had to get a supervisor. The supervisor told me that it is against company policy to give out straws with fountain drinks. This is just bad management all around when it comes to this park.. My family and I will not be back.
