Busch Gardens

We went to Busch Gardens during Spring Break with my dad and Aly and Matthew and it was super crowded but we had lots of fun anyway. They have a new Sesame Street kids area with fun rides and places to meet the characters. Rexford loved the rides! Austin liked the rides and meeting Elmo! Rexford wouldn't go anywhere near the characters :) We also went on a train ride around the park to see some of the animals and got a few pennies for the kids' collections. We can't wait to go again and hopefully we'll pick a less crowded day so we can do more.

Austin liked riding the zebra on the carousel. Later on we went again and I put him on a lion and he freaked out!

Rexford rode a zebra too

Matthew was very nervous on the carousel :)

The boys loved this little car ride and would have gone again if the line hadn't been so long. Austin screamed and threw a fit when it was time to get out.

Austin loved meeting Big Bird and Elmo! He was smiling and pointing and all excited. It was fun!

Rexford on the fun "Dumbo" like ride

This was Rexford's favorite ride! He was almost too tall for it but they let him on. He rode it at least 5 times and wanted to keep going. Austin only rode once - he looked down the entire time and didn't look like he enjoyed it. It went faster than I thought.

Rexford loved this ride and went twice. Only kids are allowed on it and when they told my dad he couldn't go with him, Rexford said, "It's okay, I can go by myself." So grown up :(
