August 13, 2010


Today, my mom and I took the girls to Indiana Beach. It's the last Friday before school starts and we wanted the girls to have a last summer hurrah. We met at McDonald's at 8am for breakfast. We got on the road and arrived at the park right at 11am, when they opened. To our surprise and delight, it wasn't that busy. We only had to wait in line for 2 rides. Otherwise, if we waited, we were the next group to go. I haven't been to IB in about 10 years, and it has changed tremendously. There are a few new big roller coasters. We had a hard time getting Morgan to go on much of anything other than the kiddie rides. Lauren was a little more brave. For a little bit during the day, we split up and Lauren and I went on rides by ourselves. We went on a small roller coaster (Lauren's first roller coaster), the dragon boat swing, the gondola ferris wheel, the log flume and the sky lift. The sky lift was Lauren's favorite and we must have gone on it about 10-12 times throughout the day. All day we kept trying to talk Morgan into going on it, but she was scared. All of a sudden in the early evening, she said, "I'll do it." So her and I went on it while my mom and Lauren walked to the other end of the park. We yelled down and said HI to them when we passed over them. And can you believe it? Morgan loved it, didn't want to get off and said she wanted to keep doing it. She ended up going 3 times all together. It was really hot all day, but we're glad the weather was nice. It's always my luck that we would plan something like this and it would rain all day.





"Yay! Kiddie rides!"
