Abby was game to get wet again so we rode the other log ride.
Thoroughly drenched from the log ride, we spied a bunch of bungee-assisted kids jumping on trampolines to the tune of 20ft high, and got in line. Lucky for Abby, she was wearing a windbreaker at this point, so she wasn't chilled to the bone sitting in the shade of the setting sun, wind blowing, waiting entirely too long in line. I wasn't so lucky and was freezing by the time Abby's turn came up. About that time I realized that this was a pay event, so I had to shell out $5, but since we had waited so long . . . what the heck?
Abby loved it, but I think she was a little too light (~30lbs) for the bungees and the spotter had to keep moving her back to the center, as she kept ending up swinging back and forth.
We ended the day on the double-decker carousel (second level, of course). After the ride, Abby asks, "What fun thing can I do next?" I was thinking, it's about 40 minutes till closing, we've been here 8 hours, we're going to escape before the parking lot starts looking like the Kidzville bumper cars. So we called it a day. To make it the perfect Abby day, I made a last concession and put the convertible top up for the drive home. Abby was fast asleep soon after we pulled out of the parking lot.
