Well, in trying to squeeze everything into the last little bit of summer, we managed to make it to the waterpark. Luckily, we are early risers, so we were able to make it inside as the gates opened. We headed straight to several of the waterslides because we knew the lines would increase as the day wore on. We were able to ride several slides multiple times before we decided to move on to another attraction. The kids favorite slide was a racing one where up to 4 people race against each other (and the clock). We did it nearly 1/2 a dozen times.
The girls had a great time. There were several things the girls couldn't do though; Emma was 1/4 of an inch too short for a couple of the slides (she had already ridden them when a different lifeguard was there, but this particular one wouldn't let her). So, she was bummed about that. Abby was too tall to go on the climbing ropes. They did not have near enough tubes for the slides, so you had to wait your turn for a tube and then go wait in line for the slides. And, last, they made our kids destroy their sandcastles they were building in the sand (along with all the other kids doing it). Not sure the reasoning behind this one, but what can you do? The girls had a great time, but they felt there were too many rules there. We explained that rules are meant for safety, but they did seem a little over the top.
We were excited about the fact that we could bring a cooler in, so we did manage to save a lot of money on food and drinks. Always a plus!

I was telling Dean about your expereience after you told me about it last week. I agree with ya, the sand castle rule was a little over the top!
