Discoveryland

We live 5 minutes away from a Disney “like” amusement park. We have been wanting to take the boys but just have not had the time. Nor did we really want to go when it was so hot here. So we decided that we would go on Friday. Sarah and Trina joined us for our adventure. We got there around 9:45 and there were tons of tour groups. We all moaned and decided to go anyway. Once we got through the gates it was not so bad. There were characters walking around and people rushing to get photos. We decided to continue on our way. Many of the big rides the boys were too short to go on. They were troopers. We would time it so when the big school groups would leave a ride we would rush over to the ride. It was nice. We of course became the show at time but the kids are getting so use to it. At one point the kids were chasing bubbles and dancing down the street. The next thing I know is we have a crowd watching us. Then several Chinese parents start to encourage their children to do what the kids were doing. It was a hoot.
We found an indoor playground and ball room. I think we spent most of our time there. It was a great day. Some of the Chinese students got up the nerve to come and talk to us. They always seem to ask “What is your name? and Where are you from?”. Then after 2:00 it seemed to clear out. It felt like we were in a ghost town. The kids loved the rides then. At one ride the 3 kids were riding and we have 3 couples come to take pictures of them.

We also found out this week that Grandma Eggs and Grandpa John along with Uncle Chris are coming to see us in March. We are SO excited!!!!! We miss you all very much.
