Adventureland

We have been waiting for a nice day to go to Adventureland

and today was that day! It was absolutely perfect weather!

We arrived right before it opened at 10:00 at a nice 77 degrees

and left at 4:30 with about 85 degrees. WONDERFUL!

Steve used to go to Adventureland with his family, 

but it was Aubrey and my first time!

Aubrey was awake EARLY this morning,

so we were thankful she got a 30 minute nap on the ride up.

First stop, the TRAIN

"Chugga, Chugga, Chugga, Chugga, Choo Choo!"

The CAROUSEL with Daddy

LADYBUG ride

This is not a picture of our raft

but all three of us went on the RAGING RIVER!

We actually ran into some friends from Pella

and rode with them, too!

Aww, man, Aubrey and Daddy got SOAKED!

Thanfully Mommy only got a little wet :)

Waiting for Aubrey to ride her rides by herself :)

INFANT BOATS

"Beep, Beep!"

Yes, all THREE of use did the LOG RIDE!

Mommy was scared, so that made Aubrey scared, too - oops!

This is the illegal pic I snapped from the monitors.

You can't see Aubrey's face very well, but it was priceless - SCARED!

A nice SEMI TRUCK ride. 

Uh, oh, "Watch out for falling rocks!"

Passing the time in line.

Now with Mommy :)

On the UNDERGROUND railroad.

It was a dark ride and a bit scary, but Aubrey

LOVED IT!

She kept saying, "More!"

AIRPLANES

At this point it was time for lunch - almost 1:00.

We went out to our car and had our picnic lunch in the car

and changed into our swimming suits and 

came back into the park around 1:30.

We decided to hit the FERRIS WHEEL

View from above of the park

Then we hit ADVENTURELAND BAY

By this time it was WAY past Aubrey's naptime

but she did awesome!

Aubrey was brave with Daddy

going down this slide.

Family Fun!

By the time we left at 4:30 she was out!

Such a deep sleeper immediately! 

On the way home, we stopped

here for some ice cream in Monroe.

Yummy!

What a FABULOUS day.
