My family is going to Carowinds tomorrow and I was wondering what type of shoes we should wear?
I would prefer to wear rainbows (flip flops) but I am not sure what you are supposed to do with those when you ride a roller coaster.
The reason I don’t think we should wear tennis shoes is due to the fact of getting wet on the water rides.
We wore socks and sneakers to disney and once they got wet we had to walk around like that until they dried and the kids were miserable.
Any suggestions???
We are also taking one backpack if that makes a difference.

   well flip flops are ok but you can lose them on rides that don’t have a floor or ones that flip you. Flip Flops arn’t secrue on your feet. I have a suggestion, bring both flip flops and tennis shoes. Wear the tennis shoes on the roller coasters and thrill rides and the flip flops on water rides.

   Easy – wear flip-flops/sandals. I had the same issue of getting my shoes wet and having to suffer with stinky wet shoes all day (that was the last time for that). For me flip-flops worked the best. When you get on a ride that you’re afraid you’ll lose them on just sit on them or tuck them in your shirt. I always sat on mine and never had a problem. I’ve seen many others do it and never got in trouble and in fact some announce that you either sit on them or put them in your shirt.
   Only bad thing is I wore mine out and they broke, but I just blamed my mom at the time and so she bought me new ones. lol
