The Zip Line at Blizzard Beach
Have I mentioned that Lukas has no fear? The boys spent most of the day in the Ski Patrol Training Camp area. This part of the park is for kids that are older than toddler age. There were age-appropriate water slides, a fun ice berg rope walk and a zip line plunge.
Lukas was having fun on the water slides. He got bored of them after awhile and wandered over to the zip line. I couldn’t see the top of the kids water slide, so I thought he was in line. I got suspicious after a few minutes and went to look for him. It was already too late. He was being hoisted on to the zip line by someone in line behind him. He happily went down the zip line and plunged 12ft or so into the water!
He was fine, of course. For me it was a bit of a Nemo moment. I would never have let him on that ride voluntarily. But, in retrospect, he was fine and he loved it. So, we let him ride it again and caught it on video. Kaleb also took the plunge. Ironically, he was too scared to do it at first. But when we told him about Luke’s unplanned excursion, he decided to give it a try.
