The second happiest place on earth

Today we used our free pass from AB to get into Busch Gardens for
free. Go Army!!

They have a new Seaseme Street section that the kids loved. One of the
coolest things we found was right inside the park they had a height
check. Once the kids were measures they got a wrist band to indicate
their height and we got a sheet with the rides available to ride!!
Neat!

After doing Seaseme Street we ventured out to the rest of the park.
Emily and I traded off going to the big rides so we had fun too.
Since Ethan is over 42" tall there was an adult roller coaster, The
Big Bad Wolf, that he got to ride with me. It is a fast intense ride
and he did great. In fact he loved it so much he took Emily on it for
a second ride. Eliza was broken hearted, she could not understand why
Ethan could do something and she couldn't. As it turns out she is
about 2" shorter than Ethan and for the first time in her life was
told no. She just felt it was too unfair. Too make up for it she got
to take pictures with all the Seaseme Street characters and brought
home home a way cute picture of her and Abby Cadaby.

Overall it was an awesome six hours on the park. We then drove a
couple hours north and stayed the night with our dear friends the
Dabolts. John and I were LTs together at Ft Stewart the company
commanders at FLW. He works in the Pentagon now and is doing great.

Tomorrow Emily gets to go see the bears, err, I mean Amish.
