Wannado City...Where kids get to do what they wanna do and the parents get to watch.
This place was a blast. I've never seen anything like it. Parents get in free, because there is nothing for the parents to do besides watch their kids have fun.
Its an inside miniature city. There is a bank, post office, fire department, police department, detective office, candy shop, bakery, and lots more...you name it, they probably have it. The kids get to work at the stores/shoppes/offices and make money to spend on candy, cookies and rides. What better way to spend the day. Which is what we did all day on Monday.
Zion got to rock climb. He didn't make it all the way to the top tho, cause he got scared. But he still did pretty good.
The boys got to be firefighters and ride on a firetruck and actually put out a pretend fire with real water. There was a building on fire (fire looking lights and smoke) and they had to put out the fire with a real hose . That was really cool.
The kids joined the circus for a little while as well. Trevor even got to join in the show. What are the chances that he would get picked from the audience to volunteer. He had to balance all those plates on sticks. When it was over, he took a bow, dropped all the plates, and "broke one"...(it was already broken when he dropped it) and as punishment he had to dance. LOL!!! I laughed so hard...poor Trevor, he was SO humiliated. He's lucky I forgot to video it or else you all would have been highly entertained.
There wasn't much for a 2 year old to do, and thankfully because of that, Glorianna got in free. There was one small area with toddler toys, and that is where Glorianna wanted to stay. So me and Trevor took turns hanging out there with her and running around with the boys.
For lunch, there a food court and a small "pizza parlor". For $5.50 the kids got a drink and a pizza....and they got to make their own pizza. I thought it was well worth the price and as you can see the pizza's were good size. They didn't eat them all. All 3 kids got to eat these pizza's for lunch and supper. So it was worth the money for sure. It was cheaper for the kids to do this then it was for Trevor and I to eat ready made food. Typical.
After spending pretty much all day at Wannado City (which happened to be connected to the Sawgrass Mall) we all went into the mall so us ladies could do some shopping. That was fun as well, but by the end of the day we were all wiped out.
Thus ends Part 2...Stay tuned for part 3...
Thursday, June 5
morning.) Fly into Washington DC where we have a 1 hour lay-over...not too bad...that gave us time to get some food. The kids loved riding on the airplane as you can tell from the pictures.
