Busch Gardens

We spent all day Tuesday at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg.  It was hot and crowded but the kids had fun.  We had lunch with "Elmo and Friends".  It was nice because it was inside an air conditioned building so it gave us all a break from being outside in the heat.

Lucy, Seth and Emma enjoyed watching the Sesame Street show.

Lucy kept pointing to all the characters and saying "this, this". She liked them from far away but did not like it when any of the characters got close to our table.

The characters were all great.  They all came to our table at least two times.  I think Seth enjoyed it the most.  He was giving all the characters hugs and high fives.  Bert even did the "pigeon" for us.  The kids were ready to go once they were fed.

Emma was brave and tall enough to ride the Elmo roller coaster.  Sean went with her.  He said she was a little nervous at first but did a good job.  Jacob decided he wanted to try some of the big roller coasters.  I can not ride too many roller coasters or I get sick but I did want to ride at least one.  So, Jacob and I rode the Lochness.  He loved it.  In fact, at about 5:30pm Emma, Seth, Lucy and mommy had had our fill of Busch Gardens.  We headed back to the hotel so that daddy and Jacob could ride the big boy rides.  Sean was surprised how many rides Jacob rode.  They had a good time.  We went back to pick them up when the park closed.

I think this is how we all felt at the end of the day.

We had a wonderful Spring Break trip.  It was good to be home but we made many wonderful memories.
