Midway Park - Chautauqua Lake - July 30th

On Thursday, the 30th, we drove from Jeff's parents' down to Chautauqua Lake for the day. It's so beautiful there! After taking in a few scenes of the lake, we took the kids to Midway Park. What a perfect little gem for small kids like ours. Noah wanted to ride the boats first - and kept saying they were like "Papa J's boat!"Next - a train ride. Noah loves trains.Then, the rollar coaster. When Noah got done on the coaster he said, "That's scary, I don't ride that again."Jeff was a good sport riding most of the rides for Noah - as this was Noah's 1st time riding any rides.Norah had a good time watching.We packed a picnic & ate a nice lunch at the park.Nothing beats the Merry-Go-Round.Next, a stroll down to the lake again.View looking back up from the lake:Back to the boats - I lost count, but I think he rode the boats 7 times.The "Tidal Wave" - another ride Noah said he didn't want to ride again.*Whew, that's over.Noah LOVED the Fun Slide & did this several times, too!And the planes...The Tilt-A-Whirl - not a fan of this yet, either, but he did a great job.One last train ride before heading home! What a fun day - we hope to do this again before summer is over.

Looks like you and the kids all had fun! Your next purchase might either need to be a boat-go-round in your backyard! :)

Man I wish I could have gone and enjoyed the rides, too! Looks like a great time! Bet Noah thought that was more fun than Uncle AJ's tractor!
