June 25, 2015 – Dayspring Disciples

Okay – so I don’t know if that is still the jingle they use to promote Darien Lake. But that was the phrase when I was in college 100 years ago.
We had AMAZING passes to available to us through a homeschool group locally. I won’t publish the price, but it was insanely low. It also included coupons for popcorn and food.

And.

We. Had. A. Blast.

I liked Darien as kid, but then as a young adult I thought the place was a concrete pit. I’ve only gone a few times in the last dozen years. But the GREAT news is, each visit has been significantly better than the one before. I down right loved our day there today.

We were there for rope drop and moved our way back to MotoSomething – a roller coaster thing we were introduced two on our visit in 2012. We’d remembered that as the one ride we really had to wait for on our previous visit so it seemed as good a place to start as any. Kids rerode and then I *insanely* suggested we hit the ride right next to it… NEVER REALIZING it would treat me and four of my babies like human foosball players.

Mommy fail.

FAIL!

Yowsers.

From there we could only go up. And we did. We had a blast. We rode anything we wanted as often as we liked. We spent hours in the water park after a late lunch and we stayed til just before closing.

We love amusement parks.
