We spent a lot of time together & even went on an awesome child-oriented family vacation!
The drive was a little over 4 hours, but totally worth it & with coloring books, stories & dvds Ava & Sofia handled the drive quite well.
We went to Storyland which is a little amusement park geared towards kids under 11. It has everything a kid would want: rides, games, food & characters.
The swan boat ride was really fun. It has its own little engine & the kids get to steer...we did a lot of bumping into other swans!
It also had a lot of "flying" rides - the whale is below, but there were also shoes & fish to fly on!
Chef G & Ava & Sofia were put in jail at the end of the day because they had WAY too much fun!
And oh yeah, the piece de resistance...Bamboo Chutes! They have the camera perfectly situated so that they get everyone when the little panda boat first starts down the steep, fast hill (even the panda is scared)!
We also ended up staying overnight at a really beautiful grand old hotel (no a/c! but it was a beautiful night with NH breezes). Here's Sofia in our room singing her graduation song "Proud to be an American."
