On June 20th, 2000, 8 of my friends and I went to Dorney Park and Wild Water Kingdom... which is an amusement park around here. I brought a really adorable little water proof camera along and took a lot of cute pictures. Despite the very painful sunburn that resulted, I had more fun that day than I had had in a long time. I had been planning the trip for over a month and it was all very worth it.

 

This was the very beginning of the day. 11 AM...
before the sunburn... before we got drenched... before
fun! (L to R) Charlotte Benditt, Lauren Pavlov, Kate
Johns, Jackie Griffin, Jenn Teaford, Erin Daly,
Demian Katz, and Tiffany Cory.

 

The first ride we went on was called
something like "the lazy river" and all
you did was sit in an innertube and float in
circles and under waterfalls and bridges and such.
Jackie wasn't going on water rides so
she ran to greet us at every bridge we passed under.

 

These next few pics are my "before, during, and after" pictures. There
was a water ride that was in the regular park so people were wearing
their regular clothes on it... and not their bathing suits in hopes that
they wouldn't get wet. Let me tell you... it wasn't possible to remain dry.
That is Kate, Jackie, me, and Erin.

 

Tiffany, Jenn, and Charlotte... all confidantely dry.
Although they had their bathing suits on so it didn't
matter if they got wet.

 

He does NOT have a bathing suit on. Doesn't he look
scared? :o)

 

Well... I can't even tell who this is
but I love this picture. It looks like Tiffy's
hair and Demian's yellow shirt so my best guess
is that it's them. He didn't really succeed at
staying dry.

 

And the results...

 

Kate, Tiffy, Demian, and Jackie on the carousel...
or the merry ground... whichever you prefer.

 

Lauren on the carousel. And you can see
part of me in the mirror behind her!

 

Jenn, Erin, and a very burnt Charlotte behind me on
the carousel.

 

Tiffy and Demian being cute
during lunch.

 

Jackie, Kate, and Erin on the swings... before
the actual swinging.

 

Jackie in the process of the actual swinging.

 

Tiffy looking brave and strong
while waiting in line for one of
the rides.

 

This is the best roller coaster I've been on
in a long time. Kate took the picture from the ground.
That's me in the front, and Jackie behind me. She's got
Tiffy next to her... and Lauren is next to me but
she's not visible.

 

Erin squating.

 

Jackie and Kate on the dragon.

 

Kate being very excited about the ride that
we just finished.

 

This is the end of the day... after the sunburning...
after the drenching... but still in the midst of
the fun!
