Staycation Challenge: Day 4

We were feeling very brave on our staycation and purchased tickets to Splashtown. ($$ saving tip: find a coupon code online to get the best discount). So once again, we left early to get there when the park opened. We immediately staked a table by their little kids' area and got to playing.
Amelia tried a lot of things, including a small water slide, but eventually decided she liked the lazy river the best. She had the biggest giggles swimming loose in the current.
And apparently small toddlers aren't often seen around Splashtown, so she got a lot of attention. Oohs, ahhs, and "how cutes." I have to agree. She was pretty stinkin' cute with her little orange floatie arms floating down the river.
The hubby and I kinda thought she'd nap sometime after lunch in her big ol' stroller, but Amelia had other plans. So there was a brief period where it started raining, some other family tried to steal our table, and we were dealing with a cranky mom toddler. Thankfully it passed and it turned out to be a great day overall.
I'm sure he'll appreciate my posting a shirtless shot, right?
Total Cost: A more expensive staycation day. Next time we'll have our hand stamped and eat a picnic lunch by the car.

  1. It looks like little girl loves the water. Every vacation needs one splurge day.
