HOLIDAY WORLD  (July 26, 2010) 

As another summer time pack activity, we took a day trip to visit the Holiday World theme park about 2 hours away in Santa Claus, Indiana.  This was basically an event where we all rode together on the bus but each family split off and did their own thing once we arrived at the park.  We went on a Monday when we felt the crowd might be smaller and the waiting lines for the rides would be shorter.  This was probably the case, but with the Kentucky Kingdom theme park in Louisville closed, the crowd at Holiday World was noticeably larger than we had encountered in previous years and lines for many rides were quite long.  Despite the crowd and long waits, it was still a fun outing.

Several pack families on one of the rides in the Splashin' Safari water park area. Everyone seems to have survived the plunge ... some a bit wetter than others!
