The Tornado

Andrew & Katherine were gone last weekend (more about that in another entry), so I wanted to do something totally out of the ordinary and fun. Amber Howard, my mom and I went to Atlanta to the water park. We had so, so, so much fun! There was one particular new ride called the tornado. After climbing up many flights of stairs carrying an enormous 3-4 person tube, you got on and went down a very steep slide into this HUGE funnel thing (several stories tall) where you zipped back and forth until you shot out of the end of it. The drops were so severe that they took your breath away, and you couldn't even scream. It was great fun! What a great memory!
