The new water slides

Even with rain in the forecast, we decided to head out to Hershey Park this Friday. At the beginning of the day it was so humid with the pending storms, so we decided to go right to the waterpark. We were able to go down a couple of the new slides they had and tidal force before the storm hit.

Learning from years past, I came prepared with ponchos and we enjoyed an early lunch while the lightning struck around us. While it was still raining we decided to head out to a couple of indoor rides. Soon the clouds parted and we were able to enjoy a little bit more of the the water park. With the nicer weather, the lines got longer, so we headed out to the other parts of the park. Eliza was a hershey bar this year, so she was delighted to go on new rides such as the claw, sidewinder, and lightning racer. She loves a thrill!!! Anna was brave, and tried the Great Bear roller coaster. I think she secretly liked it.

Hershey Bar at last!

Enjoying the ferris wheel with daddy

The only down side of the whole day was having wet shoes. I wore sandals, which dug into my feet. I had other shoes in the car, but we never made it back. When we finally left the park around 8:30, the girls were pleasantly (estatically) suprised to hear Demi Lamoto performing in the stadium right next to where we were parked. We sat in the car for 1/2 hour while they sang along to her songs. It was definitely the highlight of their enjoyable day.
