"Stay-cation" Part II - White Water Park

As mentioned in the previous post, our plans to go to Charleston for vacation did not work out, so we went to the "White Water" water park because they have a brand new section for kids with a "Wiggles" theme (which of course, we love!) "Wiggles" songs played over the park speakers the whole time.
Daddy and Addison are getting off of the "Big Red Car" slide at the back of the car. They had so many slides, and fountains, and sprayers, etc. It was a little much for our girls who kept getting sprayed in the face or water dumped on their heads (Mommy didn't like the surprise sprayers either.)

The majority of the time, the girls played on the little water slides (left: Aubrey sliding down the yellow slide; right: Addison sliding on her belly down the orange slide).
"Wipe out!"

The other half of the day, we floated down the lazy river (Aubrey's favorite!). I couldn't take pictures of that, or the short time we spent in the wave pool, or on the bigger-kid slide that Aubrey did a few times because there was no way to keep the cameras from getting wet (sorry).
In order for Aubrey to slide on the bigger-kid slides, she had to stand next to a measuring stick. This must have made a real impression on her because within 5 minutes of walking in the door at home, Aubrey held up this linking toy and told Addison, "You can't come in here (the den) because you have to be as tall as this stick."
