I could totally win the million dollars if all that was standing between me and the finish line was the Leap of Faith. Yep, I did it. Conquering fears, one at a time. The key was not thinking about it and not looking down. Just a normal slide . . . just a normal slide. So normal that when I reached the bottom we headed right back up to ride it again. And then again.
I had a great time on the rides with Josh and the boys. One afternoon the baby napped and Calvin babysat while Carter and Caleb went to the Kid’s Club (free admission for Imperial Club rooms) and Josh and I had a 2 hour “date” and rode a bunch of rides together. It was really fun. I always wondered who would go on a family vacation and then send their kids away to one of those Kid Club places . . . um, I guess I’m one of those people? Not really. Carter and Caleb could have gone to the waterpark with us, but they were begging to go to the kids club where they had a rock wall, video games and I’m not sure what else. I really should ask them what they did. Whatever it was, it was great enough that they wanted to go back the next morning so we dropped them off for a few hours while we packed, checked out and hung out with Calvin at the waterpark (that’s when I was able to go on Leap of Faith).
This picture is an inside joke for us. Last time we stayed at Atlantis, Calvin told us there were private suites inside the waterpark. Why did he think that? Because one of his friends saw the “private” sign and assumed that important people must stay behind those locked doors. In actuality, the “private” signs mark the maintenance closets and service entrances so now we tease Calvin that he can stay in the private suite right next to the dumpsters.
