Kiddie Park

Here is the post I should have put up before we left town for Kipawa!

The Thursday before we left for Canada, we took advantage of a bright and hot summer morning and took Jack for his first visit to Kiddie Park, home of the oldest steel roller coaster in the US. The Little Dipper. The whole park (all 1 acre or so of it) exists to serve the under 7 crowd, and it is just the right speed for them. Lots of little ride going in circles. Lots of driving wheels. Jack was enthralled. In most of the pictures he is too busy concentrating on his job of driving to show how much he was enjoying himself. He was excited to explore the park and walked from one ride to another; he learned how to give his ride tickets to the staff members in the "yewwoh" shirts. His very favorite ride was the boat circle-- hearkening back to his fun times driving the boat in NY, perhaps. He also got into the merry go round. He rode each of those rides 3 times! We capped off the day with a corn dog (he actually ate 3 bites!)

Here are some pictures of the day.
