Myrtle Beach part 3

We headed over to Broadway at the Beach last night. It was a lot bigger than it was the last time I was there...in college...um, like 10 years ago. Right away we found one of the ride areas and bought our 9 tickets for $20. Total rip, but we are on vacation so whatever. So 9 tickets means 4 rides (with 2 riders each) and 1 single. First up was the cars. In this video Blythe is being the spastic driver, but actually Ethan was more the spaz than Blythe.

Next up was the tea cups. Ethan wasn't big enough to ride by himself and I would have puked on him if I had to ride, so Braden rode with him (Braden didn't need a ticket though). After a while Ethan looked like he might puke, but I still think he liked it. And of course Blythe loved it.

Let's see, next up was the carousel. Nothing all that exciting about it, pretty standard. We tried to convince Blythe to ride the one that looked like Juni, but she wanted the horse with the pink ribbon. Such a girl.

Then Blythe really wanted to ride the caterpillar. It was really fast and went round and round, so again I punted to Braden. He did have to use a ticket this time though. Check out how fast.

After they went round and round for a while, it stopped and then went BACKWARDS round and round just as fast. Blythe loved it!

So we had just one ticket left. Ethan got to ride the boats by himself.

We finished up the evening with dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe, which is really more about the atmosphere than the food. The really nice thing about this trip is that it's not crowded anywhere. We're past prime season, school has started in a lot of places, so we have not-so-crowded beaches, no wait at the Hard Rock, and rides we're riding by ourselves. Only one more year that we get to go on vacation the first week of school. Then Blythe will start kindergarten...ah! getting ahead of myself!
