Vacation Day 8 - Lagoon

The KOA may have had great bathrooms but its location left much to be desired! It was right next to a train track that was really noisy and came every couple of hours. It was also next to the road and trucks were coming up and down all night. It was annoying.

We woke up early, ate cereal and packed the car. We drove to Farmington and checked into the campground at Lagoon. Bryan had to do a few hours of work so the kids and I went into Lagoon to play for a while until he could join us.

We rode the Terror Ride, Wild Mouse (I screamed and embarrassed the kids), the wooden roller coaster, the swing ride, the boat ride and did the bumper cars. There weren't a lot of people so we got right in the rides. It was great!

When Bryan got there the kids wanted to take him on the rides they liked. He rode the wild mouse, swing and boat.

We took the gondola ride across the park to do a couple more rides.

Bryan went on the Cannibal ride by himself. It was a bit too much for me. It drops and then twists and I think I would have lost my lunch but he loved it.

We rode a few more rides and then got our stuff and went to Lagoon a Beach. We rented two tubes and Bryan relaxed while the kids and I floated the river and rode the water slides. It was a lot of fun until someone stole our rented tubes!!! That put an end to our fun because we were peeved. 

We decided to get a treat and while Courtney and I stood in line, Bryan and Ethan got 2 tubes that were just sitting around and returned them as our tubes. The circle of life, I guess. 

We then went back to the campground. We were hungry so we changed and went to find a KFC so Bryan could get his chicken fix for the trip. We found one, ordered and then waited FOREVER for our food. We think they had to slaughter the chickens themselves! 

After dinner we went back into the park to ride a few more rides before we were finished with Lagoon. I was surprised that there weren't more people there. It was hot but not too bad and we walked into most of the rides. The kids had a lot of fun.

Courtney wanted to go on the train which takes you around where you see animals. It's the 2nd largest zoo in Utah.

We saw lions, camels, wart hogs, etc. When we were almost back to the station we heard someone behind us yell "stop the train, medical emergency!" The message was relayed up and we spent another 20 minutes waiting for it to be resolved. Someone had a seizure.  

By this time we were ready to go.

Lagoon was fun!
