A Day at the Gardens

The other day we had friends in town and they wanted to do something fun with the kids. None of us had been to Gilroy Gardens so we looked it up, got a coupon and headed down the hill to Gilroy. It was actually a blast! Most of the rides were appropriate for Nora so she really had fun! It wore her out! As soon as we got in the car to go home her head went back and she was asleep! I don't think she has ever had that much fun!

Here are some pictures.

Here are our friends (Justin, Kristen, Gianna & Naomi) going up, up, up in the hot air balloon!

Nora wasn't afraid of anything. She kept this mild smile on her face during all the rides and was always excited to go on the next one!

The view from the top!

By the end of the day I think Nora was more ready to be the passenger on the car ride than the driver!

Our take on Gilroy Gardens...fun for families with young kids. Way too expensive if you don't have a coupon and go on a weekday, if you can, because there were no lines for any of the rides!
All-in-all, a great day!
