Josh loved every moment of our vacation. He was in little boy heaven at the beach, on the rides, eating ice cream and hanging with family.
But, the absolute highlight for him was Lancaster.
We went to "A Day Out With Thomas", had dinner out with Joe and Carolyn and then hit Dutch Wonderland. This is where I will pause to tell you Josh has absolutely inherited his mother's love for all things "ride". The child has very little fear and pretty much loves every kind of ride.
Except one.

That turtle is as menacing as he appears.
Trust me.
We learned the VERY hard way.
He did, however, LOVE the "Thomas" show.

I will also say that "Dutch Wonderland" may be one of the most fantastic places for the under 10 set in the North East. Super clean. Awesome staff. Totally kid friendly. Just enough to do. Free parking!! Very affordable. Oh, and if you spend most the day there, and it rains, you'll get free passes to come back on a sunny day. Seriously!
There was even a ton of stuff for Leah.
Leah also flipped for "Day Out With Thomas". It was pretty cool to see her get so excited to ride the train. Since she has about a 5 minute attention span she even sat for the first half of the trip. Then she got bored and spent the rest of the trip trying to climb out the window. Josh LOVED every minute of it.Waiting for the train to pull out,
clutching their new trains in one hand and tickets in the other.

shocked you didn't love the turtles! That is one of our fave rides. We were there the same day as you those kind of days are great for members too because there are no lines! But the turtles when there are no lines Collin has talked me in to riding continuously 4x in a row w/o getting off! How many times did you end up watching the Thomas show? Glad you guys had a great trip. I'd love to meet you when you use your free passes, you've given me so many great ideas and my kids are safer in the car thanks to you!
Oh, I LOVE the turtles. That is probably one of my favorite 'classic' rides. Josh, on the other hand, loved the idea of them. Asked to go on them. Loved the first 3 seconds, but as soon as we hit a big spin... FLIPPED! You likely heard him. It was about 2:00. ;)
what a great action packed fun filled time you all had. J & L are living every childs dream with you both as parents. M & S you both so totally rock as parents.
xoxoxox all around.
Is Leah holding Lady? That is my son's absolute favorite train!
Jill! You are THE Thomas momma. Yes, it is Lady!!
