Morgan’s Wonderland

We spend a day at Morgan’s Wonderland.  Arianna had been here on a school trip and wanted to go back so we did.  This park is a father’s inspiration for his little daughter.  This San Antonio Home Builder had this park built for people with special needs.  This has been a very popular park for people of all ages and needs.  The “Taking Flight” statue is beautiful and it is huge.

We decided to ride the train to get an idea of the different areas of the park.  We were the first ones at the park and the first ones and the only ones on the train.

We found Pickles here.  Pickles was a parrot that Lari and Arianna had when they were very young.  One day, Pickles flew the coop and we had been looking for him ever since.  We even took Pickles on a camping trip with us one time.

The jeep ride was fun.  Lari is a really good driver!  Watch out Mom & Dad, she will soon be ready for a car!

Arianna was a good driver, too but she was a little distracted with Grandpa & camera!!

The carousel rides were neat.  We rode about 4 times on different animals….
