Rye Playland Rocks!

I had been dying to take Avery back to Rye Playland. We only went once before, for the 4th of July in 2008. It is ridiculous that we haven't been more -- it is less than 30 minutes away, inexpensive (for an amusement park), and so fun! We went with Avery's friend Reed and his mom. The boys loved everything: a slide that you go down in a burlap sack (funny how much they loved the least high-tech ride), a log ride where we got very wet, a kid's roller coaster, and pretty much everything else they weren't too short for! They especially loved what looked to be a decades-old window display featuring Little Miss Muffet who jerks back every time the spider drops down into her whey. The boys shrieked with delight every time the spider dropped! Today was even (LGBT) "Pride at Playland!" so we came on a good day.


This was an odd ride, where the boys sat in a monkey's lap and it jiggled around. They LOVED it and rode it twice!



Hanging out by the Pride pavilion:

On this boat ride, both boys kept getting scolded for dunking their hands in the water. But how could they resist?!

Just relaxing at home:
