Our library did a special deal this summer, as they do most summers, which allows anyone to get into Indiana Beach for free if they read a certain amount of books. My family LOVES to read, so it was not a chore at all!! Armed with our free passes, Mom, Mary, Isaac and I headed to Monticello for a day of fun.
The only part of Indiana Beach that Isaac does not enjoy is the noise! Every time the roller coaster went roaring past he would quickly cover his ears.
Waiting for the Scrambler to start spinning
Mary HATES all the rides that spin or are fast, which rules out almost all of the rides! She went on the River Queen boat tour, the bumper cars, the ferris wheel, and also did Adventure Point with us. Otherwise it was just Isaac and I that did all the thrilling rides!
All three of us loved Adventure Point! First they buckled us into harnesses and then you followed a path, either the lower one or the one that was pretty far off the ground. Mary did the lower one and Isaac and I did the higher one. Sometimes we were walking on beams, sometimes ropes, and sometimes on little stepping stones. I was impressed with how well Isaac did! It was really an impressive feat for him, considering how little balance he has! Mom decided to just watch and take pictures. :)
The music express was Isaacs favorite...until I squished him because of centrifugal force. :/ Oops!
Mom, Isaac and I rode the swings together.
Isaac also really enjoyed the ride that takes you from one side of the park to the other. This was our overhead view of the taco shop.
Mary and Mom passed some of their time doing the arcade games and the game booths. She won a basketball from a 3 point basketball shooting game and also two stuffed dogs from a balloon toss.
It was such a blessing to have a day of fun with my family. It was a good end to our summer as well! Now Isaac is back in school, I start college on Monday, and Mary will start school after Labor day. Real life begins again :(
Have a blessed day!! Hopefully I can post again in the next few days!
That looks like fun! I didn't go this year, unfortunately. : )
