Wings & Waves

This summer a new waterpark opened only about 30-45 minutes away from us. We hadn't been yet, and I found an awesome coupon. So, we decided to go check it out our first weekend of the Winter Break. We picked a great weekend. It wasn't too busy, barely any wait for the slides and it wasn't raining when we got done and went outside to walk and see the planes.

It's at the Evergreen Air and Space Museum. To get to the slides you walk up about 4-5 flights of stairs. All of the slides start from inside a Jumbo Jet. Pretty neat. At some points towards the top of the stairs you can see outside, and the windows are still in the plane and you can see out those too. It also has a wave pool, a smaller pool with 2 basketball hoops, a playstructure that is constantly being dumped on by a huge bucket of water, and a nice big hot tub!

Next time I think we will plan ahead and bring our own food. But it was nice up by the food area, they had a science area for the kids to explore in. So while we waited for our food the kids were able to play and explore instead of pick on each other :- ) Kind of gave them a little break from the water too.
