Lagoon

Two summers ago, I took Tanner to Lagoon.  He loved it and has been asking to go back ever since.  Last summer, I had a newborn, so I couldn't go, and Tanner never talked Dan into taking him.  This summer I decided I would take Tanner again.  After finding out I might be dealing with health issues, I decided we better go right away.  I let Tanner miss a day of school, and we went and had the time of our lives.  Two years ago, he disappointed me and didn't want to go on many big rides.  Tidal Wave made him queasy, and he wouldn't think about the roller coasters.  But this year I was thrilled to find out that he LOVED the roller coasters.  Well, not the biggest ones.  But the medium ones.  So he is well on his way.  I still had to let him ride a few of the kiddie rides, but we had a blast together on The Bat, BomBora, the bumper cars, Flying Aces, Jumping Dragon, OdySea, etc.  He had zero interest in Tidal Wave and the big roller coasters, but I can be happy with the other rides until he's ready.  We both closed our eyes the entire time through Terroride, which we did two years ago too.  Maybe next time we'll be smart enough to just not go on it.  We even went on Rattlesnake Rapids and the log flume and got totally drenched, which I don't usually like to do, but it was fun laughing through it with him.  The very best part was around 9:30 at night when it cooled down and there was no line at BomBora.  We went on it about 10 times in a row without having to wait at all.  They wouldn't let us stay on the ride (I asked), so we'd get off, run down the ramp, run up the stairs, over the ride, down the stairs, and get right back on.  We were laughing like crazy and had so much fun!  Tanner kept asking, "One more time?!"  And I'd say, "Okay!"  Finally we wore out and went home.  It was a great day!
