Miri's first go-to ride was the ponies! For some reason, Aleaha didn't want to ride this time....probably because she sees the irony of a pony going in a circle, when she has graduated to horses that she can steer herself.
They took on the big green dragon again this year. Miri loved it. Aleaha liked it too, but you just can't tell from her deadpan expression. She is a serious rider on these things.
Another view of Miri with a gigantic smile and Aleaha with her serious face.
Miri was all about the 4-wheelers!
More serious face. (But she swears she's having a good time.)
Gotta take in those spaceships. They studied the ride ahead of time to learn which ships are not fully functional. Cuz that's no fun to get in one that won't go up and down on command!
More of that serious face.
And here's what we get when we request a smile. (It's worse!)
The helicopters were fun for the kids....
But not so much for the parents! (notice the safety inspection tag expired over 10 months ago - WTH??)
The honeybear ride has a turn bar inside to make it spin. Fortunately, our kids didn't make it go too fast. (Also, it takes a special tool to unlock the gate and get kids in and out. Bet that doesn't work well in an emergency, when a parent needs their kid out pronto.)
Facepainting is always fun. There was an interesting difference in speed between the artist who worked on Miri (who made 5 drawings) and the one who worked on Aleaha (who made 1 drawing in the same amount of time.)
This was the biggest hit of the visit -- the bungee jumping! While we stood and listened to Blue Oyster Cult, the girls spent all our money on this contraption. And they loved it!
Waaaay up in the air (funky colors because the sun was setting and I had to lighten the pic)
Hmm, how much do I entrust my delicate little 4-yr-old to a kid with blue hair?? Mommy was saying her prayers the whole time, naturally.
She didn't weigh enough to make it really go up like Aleaha did, but this was high enough!
