So we’re back from Sesame Place! Holly, Gia, Nino, Ducky and I all went to scenic Langhorne, PA Wed-Fri. We felt a wee bit silly to find out it was only 50 minutes away, (i thought it was an hour and a half, but I realize I’m thinking of the commericals that say it’s 90 minutes from NYC) but it was fun to be away from home. Ducky and Gia loved jumping on the beds, too. We will be back, now that we know how close it is, and that we are now the owners of hot-shit Big Bird Passports, which include free parking (and sexy lanyards). So if you’re looking for us this fall through next year, that’s where we’ll be. And since nobody reads the boring talky-speak, here are the pictures!
Gia and Nino enjoying their crayons at Friday’s
Ducky, acting like the teenager she is, engrossed in Ni Hao, Kai Lan on Mommy’s iPod.
Waiting patiently for the gates to open. Nice Lanyard, Holly.
This was the scene at 8:45 am. The park opens at 10 am, but they let you in for the character breakfast at 9:15. Sadly the the hot-shit passport holders line doesn’t open until 10 am.
Cookies for Breakfast!! Just kidding. Perhaps if there had been, the child would have eaten. Usually breakfast is the one meal I can get in her. She said, “I’m too busy to eat”
Ah! Ah! Ah!
Gia was not into this big furry purple dude AT ALL.
Nino was a little braver with Ernie, but still no dice.
Ducky was willing to sit with “that Orange Guy”. She said, he’s got jeans on Mommy!
The watering can was a bit cold. Ducky only wandered the edges, and Gia wanted nothing to do with it WHATSO.
They both loved the Teeny Tiny Tidal Wave, The Count’s Fount, and Little Bird’s Bird Bath. Ducky was especially excited to go on Little Bird’s Rapids all by herself. I took the round orange thing and it went really fast!!
Later Ducky and I went on the Lazy River, and after that Ernie’s Waterworks. Holly and I had pretty much had it with the water stuff by then, so before lunch we did a little shopping in Hooper’s Emporium.
She actually said “Whoa!” There was a lot of merchandise. Holly has some hilarious pictures of us in the store that I really hope she posts. Anyway.
Elmo Cupcake!
Gia just found out how much lunch cost.
I don’t think this apple is organic!!
After Lunch we decided to do the Elmo’s World show. We found out that our passports got us preferred seating to every show BUT Elmo’s. Damn you Elmo!
It really was just like the the segment on Sesame Street. At first I thought that was a rip off, but really, kids don’t like change. It was perfect.
Elmo? Rockstar?
Elmo loves his goldfish….
Ernie’s Bed Bounce. Ducky and Gia went on this, but Ducky just left her in the dust. Gia hung out by the entrance.
I thought this was cool. All the Sesame Streets around the world.
Ducky loved the teacups. All five of us went on the next day, and we used our ride again coupons. Ducky, Gia and I went in one cup and Nino and Holly in the other. Before we left on Friday, Ducky and I went on the roller coaster THREE TIMES. It’s all she talks about! I have no pictures from Friday, for I am lame.
OK, I might have ONE more.
Nino is a Bible Beater. I don’t think this is what the Gideons had in mind….
