Adventureland


Since we were in Iowa already, we decided to drive up to Des Moines from the Strutt vacation and spend a few days with the other side of the family. Which meant, our kids (and us) got to go to Adventureland for the day.

We started the day on the Ferris Wheel. The kids liked being able to see really far away.


Then we headed over to the Gallian (since it was right next to the Ferris Wheel). Patrick went on it but I guess wasn't too impressed. He still talks about the scary pirate ship.



Then we were all over the park trying out all different kinds of rides. Of course we had to go on the log ride a few times since this was the last season it would be at Adventureland. 






They have a lot of little rides for the little guys. Of course, he loved it.


And you can't go to Adventureland without riding the Tornado.











Josh's favorite ride were the swings. I was okay with staying on the ground for that one. They got really high. 


On the way out we stopped for ice cream (curtesy of Uncle Joe).

 



And one last ride on the train before we headed home. 





It was a very fun (very hot) day and the kids loved it. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
