Silver Dollar City

Our kids just love going to Silver Dollar City. They love the rides...we love the fact that the park is close enough to drive up and back in the same day. Since the park has added new rides, it's even more enjoyable. Our first trip this year was during World Fest, where they had performers from around the world. We waited in a LONG line, but we were finally able to get good seats to watch the "Feet of Fire" from Ireland. Lots of great dancers there. We then waited in another long line to watch the acrobats from China. Those guys were truly amazing! The only problem was that the show was just too short!
We visited SDC again this past weekend, along with Emily's school choir. Since the weather was warmer, the water rides were up and running. Since I tend to look like a drowned rat when I'm wet, I opted out of the "wet" rides...that meant that dad had to ride with the girls. After only one ride, the girls looked like they had bathed with their clothes on. The girls had a great time though, and had pretty much dried off by the time we left at the end of the day.
We're already looking forward to Kid's Fest this summer.
