Rebecca's family went to Idlewild this weekend! Taking photos was hard, since it kept raining and I didn't want to get the camera wet. So there aren't many pictures.
Rebecca and her dad took turns riding with the twins, since they aren't tall enough to ride by themselves, and Joshua and Hannah were buddies for the day. I tagged along with whoever had room for me.

We rode on several of the rides, and then it started raining again. Only this time it rained pretty hard, so we ran for the pavilion. We grabbed our picnic stuff from the back of the Suburban, and dashed back. By the time we finished lunch, it had mostly stopped raining. So we changed into swim suits and headed for the Soak Zone.
We played in the water for several hours. Rebecca took Hannah and Joshua up the four big slides. Two were body slides, one was a tube slide, and one was a mat slide where you raced down on foam mats. I lost track of how many times we went down the slides!

Mom and the twins went to Raccoon Lagoon, which has rides for younger kids. Meanwhile, Rebecca, Hannah, Joshua, and I waited in line for the Wild Mouse roller coaster. It was thrilling, but not quite worth the forty-five minute wait, in my opinion. While waiting, I saw this tree:
Yes, that tree is covered in layers and layers of who-knows-how-old gum that people waiting in line have stuck there over the years. It was oddly intriguing.

Rebecca and I shared this container of Dip 'n Dots. They are the most marvelous, delicious sweet things in the world!
I also discovered that amusement parks at night are very beautiful.
