Torzewski water park

Well, it's one week on from Emily's Last Day, so we're commemorating it by going to the water park she took Frederick to. Actually, they've been going to it for years, but she decided that this would be the day he would go on the Big Slide. It was the "last shoe to drop of the Summer" as she put it. And he did! For hours! And could only be persuaded to leave with a promise that I would take him the next day. And I did (and twisted my knee following him down, just to prove that I'm old and ungainly). But no harm in going for a third time in a week, is there?

The park is way out in the country, surrounded by the bucolic beauty you wouldn't believe existed if you spent all your time in Flint. In fact, it's so isolated that there aren't half as many people as you might expect. But even so, the Big Slide is the main attraction, and waiting in line is AGONY for all concerned. But we'll probably go one more time before it closes for the season on September 3rd. Especially as it's going to be in the 90s this weekend...
