Roofing

The neighbours across the street are doing their roof. I've been watching houses around the area start to redo their roofs, and I know ours will be due. I think these people have five years on us, if we can make it that long it'll mean ours lasted 20 years which isn't terrible. Still not looking forward to doing it though since it will be pricey.

Preparing For Liftoff

Alex and Mommy getting ready to go in the Sky Screamer. Alex has been singing that song all week since we decided we should go, and of course he wanted to ride it. Mommy said he really enjoyed it, although not so much that he wanted to go again. The ride itself was showing wear, only two of the three pillars had seats, and only one of those was actually working -- in fact, after only a couple more rides after Jenn and Alex went, they appeared to stop running the ride completely.

Waiting

Ever Wonder What The Black Bears At Marineland Do?

...they beg. For food. They stand in the water like this staring at the people looking at them. I suspect from this that there is a kiosk nearby that sells bear treats.
