A day at Six Flags Fiesta Texas!

We had a really great weekend. Friday night my friends Clark and Benjamin came over with their parents for Shabbat dinner. Saturday Dad took us to Tot Shabbat in the morning, and then in the afternoon we went shoe shopping for Hazel, whose feet have grown a bunch since she started walking.

The best part of the weekend, though, was Sunday, when we went to Six Flags Fiesta Texas in San Antonio. Dad's company rented out the whole park for the day, so it wasn't crowded at all, and the weather was perfect. It wasn't too hot and it didn't rain on us.

When we first got there, we went to a picnic, where I met Scooby and Scrappy Doo. They were great! They danced with me, hugged me and gave me five. Make sure you look at our pictures; Dad took a great video of my fun with them that is now on the photo site.  Hazel went over to dance with Scrappy too, but she kept her distance; she wasn't too sure what to make of him.  We also had some yummy hamburgers at the picnic; it was an excellent start to the day.

Next we moved on to some rides. We started off on a train that took us all around the park.  I could see some of the rices that looked fun and I liked reading the name of the train - Miss Kitty.  Hazel wasn't as crazy about the train since it was pretty loud, but she did well.  Some of the other rides we went on were big red cars (I got to steer!), and a little roller coaster.  I wasn't crazy about the little roller coaster, but I did shout "Wheee" a few times.  I got to go on a Yummy Fruit Salad ride with Mom which went way up high and spun around at a moderate pace.  I really liked it.  After that, all of went on a School Bus ride where the school bus went into the air.  Unfortunately, Hazel and Mom didn't like that one as much, and that was the end of the rides for them.  Then Dad and I went on the tea cups, which I liked but they made Dad dizzy.  We also went on a ferris wheel that went up super high.  Mostly, I liked reading the warning signs inside the gondola.  Dad and I also went on a crazy water ride and we got soaked!

My favorite ride of all was the red airplanes. I got to push a button to make it go up and down while it went around in circles. I liked being high up and kept yelling higher. I also had a blast on the swings. While we were on the swings, I yelled, "Wheee!" (I was allowed to use my outside voice all day today!!!) and told Daddy I was happy.

Hazel was pretty scared of the few rides she went on, the train and the cars. We found a splash pad that she really loved and watched a show with the Wiggles. I have never seen them before, but I loved the show and Hazel liked dancing along to it too. The show had a pirate, dinosaur, octopus, and giant dog.  I told Mom and Dad how much I liked each of the characters.  I clapped and sang along during the show, and at the end, I high fived them all.

Throughout the day, I really liked hanging out with all the characters that walked around the park like Bugs Bunny and Tweety Bird. Hazel liked them better from afar. She liked looking at them but when they got too close or talked to her, she ran away from them.




On our way home, we stopped at Dad's favorite place for dinner.  Unfortunately by then, Hazel and I were fast asleep from our very fun and busy day.
