We went to the Reston Festival this weekend. We got there before it opened, which was good for beating the crowds. But many of the rides weren’t ready yet and the Things grew restless.
By far the best ride/game was this giant inflatable slide. Kids had to climb through a series of levels (not easy) and then there was a big slide at the top. We saw lots of kids try but not make it, and they had to do the “climb of shame” while dozens of kids in line watched them.
I’m happy to say both Thing 1 and Thing 2 made it to the top. Thing 1 easily. Thing 2 struggled around level 3, cried a bit, but was motivated by his brother. What a proud moment for SuburbanDaddy.
