Day 16

Kate's first solo ride!

She probable rode this car ride over 20 times!!

She was sure to tell the Lion "thank you" for the ride!

She can be so sweet to Alex, sometimes!  What a sweet end to our great day!

Again we woke up to a rainy cold morning, but by 8 there was some sun so we decided to check out Knotts Berry Farm. It was a little chilly, like 62 degrees so we dressed warmly & off we went!!
Kate rode her very first solo ride ever!! It was a little airplane ride & she liked it so much she wanted to ride it again!! Next we all rode a little train. Next we rode a car ride that I think was Kate's favorite! Then Kate & I rode the kiddo rollar coaster. I thought it was going to scare her, but after the first time as soon as we stopped she said "again"!! And then after the second time, she said "Ride Again"!!! Dare I say she might already be an adrenaline junky!! I told her that would have to be the last time, I wasn't sure how much more my stomach could take!! Mike & Kate then rode in a school bus, boat & then a 18 wheeler train like ride. Kate jumped on a jumpy thing & then we had some lunch.
After lunch, we rode a carasail about 4 times!! Kate wanted to ride the lion, then a rabbit, then a rooster with me & then she rode a duck with Mike. We found a ride that was very similar to the teacup ride at Disney, except it was Mexican hats, & she ride this with Mike about 4 times. Then Kate & rode on a stage coach being pulled by 4 horses. It was neat! Alex took a little nap while we did that. We walked around while Kate & I had ICEEs & then ended up back in the area with the kiddo rides. I fed Alex while Kate & Mike rode the cars again 7 times in a row. Then she rode them like 4 more times after that!! Then we rode the 18 wheeler train thing again followed by 3 rides on the school bus ride! We followed this up with a first time ride on some hot air ballons & then a first time ride on a big skateboard.
As you can tell it wasn't crowed at all!! Most of the people at the park were teenagers so of course they weren't in the kiddo area. Kate probably went on about 70 rides!! She & Alex both did great!! Really great day, but we are so tried now!!
