Hershey Park

Ben and Siena busy driving and Dave trying to bear it. This, I think, is the most annoying ride at Hershey park. All the kids honk the horns and it is just loud. Dave was good and went on it with the kids.

Ben being brave and approaching the chocolate cup. He gave him high five! Siena turned the other way and wouldn't look at us.

The train ride. The conductor made choo choo sounds the whole time. They actually sounded real.

Ben loved all the rides that he could pretend to drive.

Ben finally taking a nap

One of Sienas favorite rides. I have video of it but I will spare you the motion sickness it causes by watching it. I need to work on my camera skills.

my cutie!

Ben did not like the carousel. He jumped off his horse right as it began. I thought I got him a horse that didn't move but I hadn't.

This is the most uncomfortable ride for an adult so Dave and I fought over who got to sit out on it. We both rode it once I think. It's painful on your back.

We made our memorial day trip to Hershey Park. It was so much fun, as usual. We love the park and visiting with grandma and grandpa. We decided to go to the park Monday instead of Saturday which was opening day. Such a good decision. It was definately less crowded. We will definately do Monday instead of the Saturday of Memorial day from now on. Sometimes Siena was the only kid on a ride. The weather was perfect even though it called for some rain, we never saw any. We even went to the waterpark for a little while. We went down the new lazy river and our kids hated it. There was only one entrance and you had to go all around the river to get back out and you had to be in a raft which Siena hated. Ben fell asleep in Daves arms halfway thru it. So we weren't at the waterpark that long. We stayed the whole day at Hershey park and Ben even took a nap in the stroller. Siena was a hershey kiss height which let her ride a couple more rides than last year and let her do more rides by herself. I still couldn't convince her to go on the littlest rollercoaster. Maybe next year. Dave was able to ride the big inverted falling rollercoaster and a couple other big ones. The new roller coaster was only a 20 minute wait, it was so nice. I rode the great bear and it was fun. It was a fun day!

I love this ride...obviously the bigger kid version but it stopped working for a while when we were by it so found the little kid version of it. So much fun. It was really slow for the little kids. I was glad that Siena liked it too. Ben did like it, we went on it a couple of times and this was the only time he cried, I don't think he was scared.

It took her a while to figure out how to work the airplane. I don't think she realized she was controlling it and allowing it to go up and down. They finally got all the kids to go up in the air and she liked it.

I was impressed that Siena rode this ride. I dislike this adult ride but she seemed to like it. She was even trying to raise her hands as she saw other kids doing it.

We had a great time. Thanks grandma and grandpa. We got to spend Tuesday with them and made cookies and went to chocolate world and ate out and read plenty of books. It was a great rainy day and we were glad that we went to the park the day before!
