The Great Serengeti Waterpark

This late morning/early afternoon we went to the Great Serengeti Waterpark. It is a small indoor waterpark located in a nearby hotel. They have 2 bigger wateslides (one for tubes and the other is a body slide) & 1 small slide for the wee ones. Plus there is a water basketball court area, and a small lazy river. The area by the small slide has the big animals you see in pictures and has water squirting out all over the place. Today they were having a special, so we thought we would go check it out again. We haven't been there in almost 2 years. The admission used to be half the price (& Isabel was free when she was one years old.) So, she doesn't remember it at all from when she was 15/16 months (last time we were there.)

She was hesitant to go down one of the big slides with us (on a tube), but once she did she had so much fun and kept asking to go down over & over again. It says that you are supposed to be 42", but they weren't enforcing that and there were other kids riding down on their parents laps.

It was a day pass and open swim is until 9pm today. They actually had open swim from 9a-9p because of the holiday. So, we'll go back in a little bit and stay for a while again.

Next weekend we are going camping and I picked out a campground that has an indoor heated pool, so that should be fun too. Isabel hasn't been camping since she was 16/17 months either. We are doing a KOA Kamping Kabin. They are rustic cabins, so we are still doing all the cooking outside & washing dishes in a bucket & everything. They are basically log rooms with a couple of beds with the thinnest mattresses you can imagine on them. We have had the tent set up in the backyard, but we would rather do the cabin thing with her until she (& her little sister/brother) are older.
