We are all love the outdoors whether it be soccer, zoo trips, beach vacations or simply walking the dog. This past week end Papa came up with a great idea that involved having Marley join us. We went to the local Whitewater Rafting Center where they were holding a duck race. With the weather so perfect in the low 70's off we went with kids and dog in tow.
Arriving at the center there were so many activities the kids could do that we bought them an unlimited wristband and proceeded to the rock wall.
I sat on the sidelines and watched with Marley, here are some pictures. For his first time rock wall climbing Bambeano did great inching up with every attempt. Boo Boo with her strong soccer legs made it to the top several times
After some lunch by the rapids enjoying the sun shine we took Marley for a walk around while taking in the views. The kids next activity was the Mega jump a jump off a 46ft tall tower. Bambeano was very hesitant to start off with but after some coaching from the attendant he jumped and squealed with delight. He loved it and both of them returned several times to repeat the fun.

I think she loved it |
By the joy on his face I think he loved it |
Now Bambeano's turn |
We sat by the rapids and just chilled for a bit watching the rafts and canoes go by before we walked around the whole water course towards the rope wall and zip line. The kids had a blast but Papa, who doesn't like heights, was feeling the fear for Bambeano. Bambeano did great climbing the 32ft rope wall to to get to the zip line platform and Boo Boo patiently waited till he got to the top as he didn't like the rope wall swinging when she started the climb.
