Elijan and Olivia visit Houston

Day 7
Today was 6 Flags over Texas and what a day it was! Grandpa cooked pancakes and we stopped at Walmart to buy Olivia some shoes and Grandma a couple blouses because we did not bring hers from Tomball. We arrived at the park about 10:30am. Our plan was to go to the back of the park and start with those rides the furthest from the entry gate first, but we had to stop at the restroom and get water and Grandma bought drinks for everyone that could be refilled free all day long. We went on the Space Shutte then on the Aquaman ride and got all wet. Next was Crazy Legs and after that was Canyon Blaster with the RoadRunner, then the Farris Wheel , next the Train, then the Log Flume ride, Bob Sled (Viper) ride, after that we did the Shock Wave and Olivia did not enjoy it much but Elijah rode it twice. We went to the Looney Toons Dance off which featured Bugs Bunny, Sylvester Cat, Tweety bird, & Daffy Duck. Somewhere in there we ate pizza for lunch and later on we ate dinner at the Panda Express and Elijah and Olivia learned how to eat with chopsticks. Uncle John and Grandpa rode the Superman drop and John screamed “like a girl” according to Grandma. We just missed the Clown show and we rode the swing, and gunslinger, and the “rodeo ride”. Yosemite Sam’s Texas Teacups was a favorite too. It would actually be much quicker to take a map of the park and point to the few rides they did NOT ride. All in all everybody had a great time and were very tired. Everyone showered as soon as we got home, we had cake and ice cream for Cecilia’s birthday, we sang a couple of times, she blew out her candles a couple of times and then it was time to go to bed.
