Dorney Park

We promised the kids a trip to an amusement park this summer and realized suddenly that this weekend was the last free weekend we had until school started. So somewhat spontaneously we packed up and headed 2 hours north to Allentown, PA to Dorney Park.
These pictures are mostly of Apollo because his rides moved slow enough to take pictures. It's hard to get a picture of roller coasters going 75mph or hanging upside down. Apparently middle age is already settling in on me: my inner ear was having a tough time--after going on Hydra, a roller coaster that goes 360* and Monster, one of those up and down, round and round rides, I was as white as a sheet and broke out in a cold sweat. Hopefully, that was just this trip for some reason. Anyway, I volunteered to take Apollo on his rides while Brian braved the older rides. We all had a great time.

Don't the older kids look thrilled to get their picture taken with Linus? Ah, at least we have Apollo, who thought it was great.
