On Saturday, Clara and I went to a small amusement park with our friends, Amy and Anna. The park has a bunch of kiddie rides that received rave reviews from Anna during her previous visit. So, we thought we'd try it out. The first ride was airplanes! Clara and Anna shared a plane that went around in circles. They were all smiles and laughter when they sat down.
Then the ride started moving... Clara started crying and screaming. The ride continued and Clara wasn't happy about it.
Finally, the torture was over, and the ride stopped. Anna, on the other hand, had a great time and was ready for more! We took a short break for lunch, and Clara decided she wanted to try the boats. Needless to say, we had the same result. Happy and excited, ringing the bell until it started moving.
On this ride, the operator didn't put up with any of Clara's antics. He promptly stopped the ride and announced, "Whose daughter is that?" Clara was thankful the ride was over and watched Anna from outside the fence.
Before we left, we went to Castaway Island to check out the water slides. Clara was too little for the slides, but she had fun in the pool. We splashed and played "Ring around the Rosie." It was a good end to the day!
