Happy National Waterpark Day!

 Another Holiday that used to be the greatest thing as a child. Going to a lake? Fun! Going in the pool? Great! Going to the beach? Amazing! Going to a waterpark with your siblings and friends? THE BEST!

This used to be the top thing to do on a Hot Sumer Day. Hershey Park, Lake Compounds, Six Flags, Disney, all of these Amusement Parks have the fun rides that have the biggest drops, but there are always those times that the best part of the day are when you spend 3-4 hours at the waterpark section. You got the water rides with the tubes, lazy river, the water park area where they have the splash zone… these are the best of the best. 

Water rides are incredible, you get a group of people, your friends or siblings, and you team up to go on a big float to go on a water ride that is down hill. Some are half open where you can look around while going down hill and cheering, but then there are times where it is fully closed, and you see NOTHING but it being pitch black as you ride down the dark hole. And after 2-3 minutes of screaming and yelling, you finally see the dot of light get bigger and bigger until you are out and into the open section of water, it is a kids dream. 

This one kids do not appreciate, but I know for a fact Adults will choose this 10 times out of 10, and that is the Lazy River. This is when you get a individual or double tube and you sit the entire time and do nothing while the water brings you around like a maze from beginning to end. It is truly the most relaxing ride to take, the only problem is that kids lose their patience and play around and start splashing water. But overall…. this ride is just absolutely amazing and should be used at least twice a week in the summer. 

Water Park used to be so fun as a kid, running around while the water is shooting around, and then every 30 seconds the BIG bucket of water drop down and everyone gets splashed. Not the best water section to play, but it was always fun as a kid to go and play.
