3 amusement parks in 4 days is too many

So we did Dutch Wonderland on Monday. Sesame Place on Wednesday. And Dorney Park on Thursday. The first two were great. By Dorney park, I was parked out. DW was GREAT for little kids. Not very crowded, food was cheap (from a park perspective), and the rides were all age appropriate. Sesame was a bit more crowded, lots more expensive ($25 for an Abby Kadabee doll?!!), but still good rides and shows. Dorney is a big park - mostly for big kids/adults, but with a Camp Snoopy that was fun and a great water park. But I was kind of sick of it all. We took a break for naps and lunch and I really didn't want to go back. It started to rain, so I thought I'd be in luck, but it stopped so we went back. The water park was really fun, and the kids loved it, so I'm glad we did.

To do again I think we'd do 2 parks in four days. Even if we went multiple days to each, I think it will be more manageable. When the kids are older it will be easier too. With one of haviing to hang out most if the time with Big Man (although my friend Kathy who we are visiting up here has been a big help), it was a little hard.

Today we are off to Crayola Factory and the Please Touch museum, then we head home. Can't wait to see what the house looks like.

Laughing out loud, wow, so much fun! Your kids are really enjoying it. It does sound tiring, but fun. Thanks for the great discription. Thanks for blogging, often.

I looked up all 3 amusement parks on the internet, they all look like fun. I looked up the Hersey museum and the please touch museum. Hopefully, you took lots of pictures to save those great memories.

I have always wanted to do Sesame place, and I have never heard of the other two...
