And we had a super time, although we are still quite water logged. We spent 8 hours at the waterpark on Saturday and 10 hours there on Sunday. We shut the place down. None of my pictures turned out great. I guess it was too dark. But if you want to see more photos of the place, check out the website...www.splashlagoon.com.
Owen went down all of the waterslides. Including Hurricane Hole, the one w/ a disclaimer stating...only strong swimmers should do this. It's the funnel shaped ride that drops you into 6 feet of water. Needless to say, I told him he couldn't do that one, but him and Eddie took off and before I knew it...he did it! And, it was his favorite of course.
Emmett spent most of his time on the "baby" waterslides by the kid area. Although, he really liked the family whirlpools (as did I). There were two huge whirlpools that were big enough to swim in and they were super warm! That's my kind of swimming. And, by the end of the day he even got his hair wet. Yeah, Emmett!
Henry couldn't have been better. He either sat/slept in his stroller, sat/slept in the front carrier or sat w/ us in the family whirlpool. Despite the heat/humidity inside that joint, the super loud sounds of kids, waterslides, and music playing, and the continuous squirting of squirt guns (they sell them there and even had "fill stations" throughout...no one stayed dry) or splashes from the water slide, he never cried. He smiled at anyone that looked at him. He was wonderful! He even slept all night in the hotel in the pack and play next to us. Oh, and he slept the whole 3.5 hours there and back. All in all, a great few days! Owen and Emmett are already asking when we can go back.

WOW! Fantastic! What a successful trip! I want to go! Sounds like a total blast! You won't be able to beat that trip; glad you had fun.
That looks like fun. We went to a place very similar over spring break. Our kids liked it, but were scared to do the big slides. We still had a blast. A.J.
that sounds like so much fun, meg. i'm so jealous!!! where is it? when ellie and henry get a little older, we should meet there!
i just looked at the website - 7 hours from us but looks worth it. :)
