Last weekend we took Andrew to Sesame Place theme park in Pennsylvania for the second time. After seven hours at the park, here are some highlights:

Another ride we did was “Big Bird’s Big Balloons.” This was a more intense ride for him but he did pretty good with it. It was a good beginner’s ride.

At 2 P.M. was the big Sesame Street character parade! We got a good seat and had an excellent view of everything. The theme of the parade is 50’s music with the characters dancing to the music.

As the day wore on, we were all starting to get tired and decided to exit. We stopped at the souvenir store before we left and picked up a shirt and a stuffed Elmo. He immediately took a liking to it!

 

 

 

 

blog_rosalitaSince we are season pass holders, we receive a little known perk that makes it all worthwhile. Before each parade, there is a small VIP area where season pass holders can privately meet with all of the characters! We found this area (it is not easy to find) and we were in character heaven! There were only 15 other people with us and all of the characters were there! We were able to have tons of quality time with all of the characters and snapped plenty of pics!

I don’t know who was more excited, him or us!
