Saturday was another Six Flags Discovery Kingdom day. We went to three shows: Shouka, the Dolphins, and the Bengal Tigers. Jordan hadn't seen the tiger show yet so we really wanted to see it. We really like that they change the shows quite often. For example, this time they had Merlin the Dolphin with Shouka. The downside, is that Jordan didn't actually get to see Ordin, the fully grown male white Bengal tiger who will swim completely underwater. The other tigers were good... just not as good as Ordin.
We had the best seats this time; we were in the shade, we were not in the splash zone, and we could see everything. McKay loved it when Shouka and Merlin swam out and did a flip together. I definitely enjoyed Shouka more this time than any other. I think McKay did too.
McKay was SO excited to see the dolphin. When Jordan walked up to him, McKay reached out and softly 'pet' him and blew kisses. Another time, he saw an advertisement about Ordin and he pointed to the white tiger - he made the connection that they were supposed to be the same thing. He just HAD to touch Sylvester's bright red nose.
We stopped and let McKay play at a few places we haven't stopped before. One was in jungle land where there is a HUGE jungle gym with 'nets' and bridges, steps, slides etc. McKay had a blast climbing the steps and going down one slide over and over. He rarely goes down more than one slide per visit, even when the slides are right next to each other... :) It was even a tunnel slide which usually scares him. He did it this time though and loved it when he could see me waiting for him at the bottom. Another place we stopped was in Looney Toons land at the Bugs Bunny playground. McKay enjoyed 'counting' the carrots in the sand.
Jordan and I took turns going on Medusa right when we got to the park, before McKay was too tired and didn't want to wait. It was a fun ride! It was actually pretty funny how many people asked me if McKay was going to go on the ride. He sure wanted to! We took him on several rides, including his all time favorite we never miss. Even Chantelle liked that ride! McKay enjoyed 'hopping' around after he got off of the hopping frog ride.
