First Time on a Carousel

We went to the Wild Animal Park today with Molly and the kids (which is now called the "San Diego Safari Park". It's a dumb name and will always be the animal park to us). We had a great day of roaming the park, looking at a few animals, crunching leaves (Cade's favorite) and climbing on the foot massager machines. I don't know why, but all three kids LOVE to do that. We basically pay to get in the park just so that the kids can climb on these things....weird. Anyway, they have a carousel now with all kinds of brightly colored zoo type animals and though we usually avoid this on the way out, the park was having an anniversary party and everyone rode for free that day. We decided to take the kids and Cade was so excited! He chose to ride on a panda and climbed right up with joy. Once he buckled himself in and we started moving, he was not so sure about what was happening. He never got really upset, but was ready to get off as soon as it stopped. I guess we will try again in a while and see what he thinks then.
