Every summer the Santa Cruz Boardwalk does dollar nights on Monday and Tuesday for 10ish weeks. Last summer we were able to go almost every week. This year with our road trips and what not, we only made it to about half of them, but we had a blast every time. Here are some picture and video highlights.
One of both the girls' favorite ride this year was Ghost Blasters. It's like the Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters ride at Disneyland, but with ghosts. However, I don't know if they liked it so much because of the actual ride, or just for the music that they liked to dance to in the line.
Lydia had begged every week to do this Freefall ride. One of the last couple weeks, I finally convinced Robert to let her try it. And it just so happened that a couple girls from our ward, Emma and Lainie, were in line with us which made Lydia extra excited.
She was a little nervous during the ride but still smiling. And when she got off she kept screaming, "That was the best ever!" and the next week, which was the last week of Dollar nights, she couldn't wait to do it again.
Mary, at seeing how excited Lydia was on the ride wanted to try it too. She was frozen like this the whole ride. Still a little smile, but frozen. I had to pry her arms off it at the end.

Our last ride of the summer was the Carousel. Will and Grant Hewitt happened to be in line with us.
