Every Day's A Blessing: Fun at Busch Gardens

Today we went to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg for the day. We have never been and were therefore unsure what to expect. We honestly just went because thanks to a military appreciation program we all got free admission.

We all had a GREAT time. There were a ton of rides for the girls, and they loved every one of them. No one ever complained of being tired of walking or anything else for that matter. Ben even got to ride on a roller coaster all on his own.

What may have been my favorite moment of the day: when Ben rode his roller coaster he had to get tokens to store his backpack. We were left with some extra tokens and could only use them at one of the arcades inside the park. We gave each girl 3 tokens. I was following Molly around to use her coins. She put one into a machine and got no tickets as a result. She then went to a second machine, put in her last two tokens, and walked away. I have NO idea what she did - only that moments later tickets started pouring out of this game. They just kept coming... and coming... and coming! In the end Molly won 675 tickets!! She was able to get this little pillow as her prize, and was so proud of herself. I was shocked that she somehow got that lucky. We all left the park exhausted, having had so much fun together. It was a nice break from the beach, and so much fun spending the day together.
