Busch Gardens was a Blast


























































Another early day...but wow it was loaded with soooooooo much fun. What a perfect day weather wise. There wasn't a lot of humidity in the area so it made the weather more easy to deal with. We started off letting the little ones enjoy their rides then ended the day with a big bang riding all the adult rides. The Scorpion was great fun and Maddie loved it she rode it three times in a roll. Luke and I rode the Shekera (not spelled right) and we thought we were going to die but LOVED IT. There was a huge vertical drop that you flew down...it was crazy looking the worst part of the drop was they stopped the ride right at the top of the drop and made you look down at it for 5 seconds. Anyway, there was a splash zone on this ride, so while were riding the ride all the little ones and Brittnee and Sarah got SOAKING WET. Sarah was about to cry laughing at Alex she said that he was red in the face laughing so hard at getting wet by the roller coaster as it zoomed by. However, the funny of the day was when we all sat down to eat lunch. We were the first through line so we found the tables to sit at...but nobody else followed us. So, it was just the four of us in the beginning. I had to go back inside the restaurant to get my plate after getting the kiddos settled down and when I got back Alex was screaming and panicked faced, Luke was red faced crying laughing and Maddie was on top of Luke about to cry because a crazy bird was attacking them. Luke said he stood up to scare the bird off and the bird came flying at him squawking. Then all of a sudden the bird was on the table stealing Alex's food. Luke could get to Alex because the bird was in between them...so Alex was trying to run away and keep running into the chairs...bless his heart. When I walked up it scared the bird for just a second giving us time to grab the kiddos and the rest of their food so we could move locations. We went to were the rest of the family was to finish lunch with them and when we got there with them they were all laughing too...a bird had done the same thing to my mom stole her pizza. Well, we sat down and within about 5 minutes the same stupid bird that originally was attacking us was there on the attack again. Why yes! he stole Alex's replacement pizza and he was mad as fire now and started squirting him with his water bottle and it finally scared him away. We finally got through with lunch and got back to having loads of fun on the rides. We ended the night with some yummy ice cream and a drive back to the condo all extremely exhausted, but ready to take on Disney World the next day.
