On such a fortuitous day as 08/08/08 I had to get a blog post in, no matter what the hour. And yes, I admit I watched most of the Olympic Opening Ceremonies. That pageant was pretty amazing! Good Job, Beijing!
Yesterday was our stake Lagoon day and so I took advantage of the offer and went for the first time in over 5 years. The park has changed some during my half-decade absence but most things are still the same. We invited Jennie and the kids along and had a grand time at Lagoon: It's What FUN Is!
Jamison and I rode together on The OdySea but he wouldn't let me touch the controls that moved our fish up and down. When I did try to take over he threw a fit so I let him have at it.
You can see that he knew just where to position the car to ensure that I got wet and he stayed dry.
Later, Colette and I rode tandem on the Swings. (Sorry about the bad quality of the cell phone picture.) I also took her on the white rollercoaster--the one made of wood. Jennie's family has season passes to Lagoon and Colette has been dying to go on the white rollercoaster but her parents won't take her--I think they're afraid of the whole thing coming apart under their feet. Well, Colette loved it and the structure is still in-tact!
Megan and the parents used the stake passes to get into the park for free. They watched us from the sidelines and kept Vera entertained while we played.
It was a fun afternoon and evening at Lagoon but perhaps in the next year or two we'll save our pennies and go to Disneyland instead. Stay tuned for pictures of that adventure!
