Vacation


Jimmy and I got to go on a small vacation. We decided to go to Cedar Point, Ohio. On Saturday morning we went to Bloomsburg to see Jimmy's mom and dad and his sister and the girls. The girls are getting so big and are so much fun!!! Mom and Dad are doing a lot of work to the house and it looks great. New siding, a new deck, new roof, and so much more. Everyone can't wait to see what it looks like when it's all finished. On Sunday morning we left Bloom around 5:30 in the morning to head to Ohio. I slept most of the way out, that's what I do best. We got to the hotel, Castaway Bay, got all our tickets and then changed into our swimming clothes. We headed over to Soak City, which is Cedar Point's water park. We went on the slides and floated down the two lazy rivers. It was a warm day, so we picked a perfect day to go to the water park. Around 3ish we decided to head back to the hotel to see if our room was ready, which it was, so we napped and showered and headed out for dinner. We decided to try this pizza buffet right down the road. Let me just say we will never go there again. It was very dirty and yucky!! The pizza wasn't good. Just a bad experience. We are very spoiled when it comes to pizza buffets.


Monday morning we ate breakfast at the hotel and then headed over to the park. We got into the park early because of the hotel package we bought. We headed right for the Top Thrill Dragster. This roller coaster is 420 feet tall and is 120 mph. What an awesome ride. What a rush!!! After that we went on some more rides. It was pretty hot and muggy so we decided we would eat lunch in a restaurant and then maybe take a break. We ate lunch and then rode one more ride and decided to head back to the hotel for a nap and shower. After the nap and shower we headed back to the park and tried riding more rides, but the lines were crazy long, so we just walked around. We went back to the hotel and ordered room service.


Tuesday morning we got up and got everything ready to go home. We checked out and then went to the water park at the hotel. We didn't think it was going to be that great, but once we got in and went on some of the rides we were having fun. We didn't stay too long because we wanted to get home at a decent time. Thank gosh we left when we did because it took forever to get home.

All in all it was a nice vacation. Definitely too short, but oh well. We did a lot of relaxing and had a lot of laughs.
