Here we are back at blizzard beach. We were here on Tuesday Hurricane Fay was supposed to hit on this day but they had downgraded it to a tropical storm. We still went to the water park and spent the day there until they closed the park early and kicked us out at 6 pm. We were one of about 100 people in the park. It was awesome we hardly ever saw anyone and as the day got later there were even less people there. We spent most of the day in the lazy river. The park employees thought that we were crazy they all had on jackets over their suits and then rain jackets on top of that but it was warm. It just rained all day we were wet though anyway. It was really cool in the river cause with all of the trees hanging over the top of us and all around and then the constant drizzle it was almost like being in a real rainforest. Or what we think that it would be like. It was fun. A lot of the employees came to know the kids by name and spoke to them every time that we went by. We only rode the family raft ride one time on this day cause the ski lift was closed due to winds. We had to climb the side of the mountain and it was a long climb. Jacob said that he would be willing to go up and ride it again if someone would carry him. No one was willing to take him up on the offer so once was all that we rode. We had a lot of fun though.

Blizzard Beach again
