Dino Town

We caved. We took the kids to Dino Town. I think it is one of those places that you drive by and say, "Maybe one day we'll stop there." and then you just keep going. Well, this year Dino Town was closing forever so we figured it had to be this summer or never at all. And we have a 5 year old daughter that might have never forgiven us if we didn't.

So, if we were going to go, we were going to be there first thing in the morning and beat the rush. Well, as you can see, our van is the only one in the parking lot - first one to drive in, first through the gates. Kind of an eerie feeling being the only people in a whole park!!

Once there, it was actually quite a fun place to spend the day. The highlight for both kids was the go-carts. Kendra was able to peddle on her own go-cart while Owen had to sit on Kevin's lap. Because we were the first ones there, we were able to go around as many times as we wanted!!

Riding in the paddle boats was also quite fun, but a good workout for the arms.

Everyday there is a show that plays starring the characters of Dino Town. The kids were quite excited to be sitting on the front row, waiting for the show to start!

A little like another show starring a purple dinosaur! Watching this once was enough for the adults!

Jocelyn didn't get too much out of the rest of the park but did enjoy the swing!
