Finally Home

The second day at Wildwood was, according to Alex, even more fun than the first. On Wednesday we basically let the kids go where they wanted, as a group. They spent quite a bit of time riding the Tremors roller coaster, a very wild wooden coaster. Tiffany was the only adult who tried it the first day . . . and she said she would NEVER do it again. Grandma Wiser finally tried it very near the end of the second day in the park, and said she would not do it again either. The kids also did the Terror Drop a couple times. This ride lifts you about 100 feet straight up and drops you straight down. The first time Alex did it he said it was fun. The second time he said it was scary. He said he felt like he had jumped out of an airplane, then realized that he had put on a backpack full of snacks instead of a parachute.

Alex, Andrew, and Britnee also went swimming for a little bit on the second day.

We also caught the shows on the second day. Tiffany and I watched the 'Sweethearts of Country' show. This was a very good singer who impersonates female country stars. She did Dolly Parton, Reba McIntire, Patsy Cline, and Loretta Lynn. She then took a request from the audience and did Taylor Swift. Next, everybody went and watched a magic show and ate pizza for lunch. The magician was very good. At one point he levitated a table in front of him, and walked around the audience with the table levitating in front of him. He even jumped up onto our table and levitated the smaller table over our pizza. After the magic show Grandpa and Grandma Wiser, Amanda, Tiffany, and I watched the singer again. This time she also did Shania Twain and a few others, by request. Finally, while the kids were riding rides Grandma and Grandpa Wiser, Tiffany, and I watched an ice show.

I had intended to catch the blog up that evening at the hotel. Instead, I collapsed on the bed and fell asleep in my clothes. Tiffany tried to wake me up and get me to go to bed, but she couldn't. I slept in my clothes all night.

This morning, we woke up and drove home.
