Bay Beach

With a not so nice forecast ahead of us we headed to Green Bay to try and squeeze in Bay Beach Amusement Park on Friday evening.  Squeeze is an understatement, considering it rained before we got there and it stormed right after we left.  We couldn't have timed it more perfect, and we enjoyed some of our favorites as well as some new rides in the few hours we were there.  The bugs, planes, helicopters, boats, train, and race cars were fun; however, the giant blue slide was amazing as we flew down on burlap sacks.  We weren't quite tall enough to ride by ourselves so Mom and Dad graciously volunteered to make the trek with us.  For some reason Dad got stuck and he and Lily barely made it down, but Mom and I flew over ever hump.  Lily got to brave the blue monster twice (the second time with Mom) just so she could experience the full effect.  Lily also gave the swings a whirl flying around in circles.  Our last experiment was the Scrambler which whips you around super fast.  I was a bit afraid as we climbed aboard along with Dad, but Lily was ready and raring to go.  As soon as the ride started there was a role reversal with me loving every second of it, and Lily crying in fear as we flew around.  She survived tears and all, but the helicopters were more her speed as Dad and I took another spin on the Scrambler because once just wasn't enough here in our world!
