Theme Parks

Today we all went to a proper North American theme park Canada's Wonderland. This park has about 15 roller coasters and plenty of other rides, but we chose to spend most of our time Splashworks, a water park in the middle of the theme park. Ellison and Matthew enjoyed the Lazy River, and the Super Soaker the most.

After a few hours, we moved on to do a few rides in the main park. We hit the "White Water Canyon" which is a bit like the Viking river ride at LegoLand, except here the public can fire massive water bombs at the poor people on the ride. I got soaked, everybody else seemed to be OK.

The boys were also keen to try out a real roller coaster, something a bit bigger than "The Dragon" in Legoland. Lynda, David and Ellison choose the biggest coaster in the park - Behemoth. Matthew and I were a little more sensible and chose "The Dragon Fire" which is a copy of the corkscrew from Alton Towers. Matthew thinks he enjoyed turning upside down 4 times, but we both decided that one ride was quite enough for both of us!

Matthew also really enjoyed the high diving show and even got his picture taken with the divers.
