StoryLand

 The thing about StoryLand is, it's really kind of fun. It doesn't have super fast roller coasters, or scary rides that spin you upside-down and backwards while blasting rock music in your ears. If we wanted that we could go to Canobie Lake Park, which is much closer to us, and also over-run with teenagers with attitudes.

What it DOES have, is water. There is a flume ride, and one of those round water rides where you don't go up and down, but they spray water at you from all sorts of places. And finally they have this new ride, where you sit in a flat raft-like boat and shoot water at folks watching the ride. The catch? They can stand at water guns they have on the sidelines, and spray water directly at you. It sounds awful, but it was very fun, and we all got very wet. Even Steve, who was watching, not riding.

We did all the big rides early, before the lines got long, and spent the afternoon at the play areas. Good fun.
