Let's try this post again.
Today, since we were in Northwest Omaha anyway for Alivia's doctor appointment, we decided to trek out to Fremont to the Fremont Splash Station. The kids were really excited. We arrived just before noon which is what time they opened today (typically they open at 11). There was hardly anyone there. For good reason, it would turn out.
It was to be a high of 89 degrees today. But, surprise surprise, it was only 76 or something when we arrived at the Splash Station. It was cold and windy actually. I asked the kids if we should just go home and try another day, and they of course wanted to stay.
Addison was so excited to go down the train slides. We quickly got in the water to find out...BRRR...who turned off the heat?! It was freezing! Addison wanted out and now!
Addi sat on the side as Asher and Alivia swam. But, within our first hour, everyone was freezing, teeth chattering, and they all wanted to go home. Ugh.
The pool, however, is quite nice. It is very user friendly for those with kids of various interests. It was easier for me to splash with Asher while Alivia swam or went down the train slides (which she never did today). There are a lot of things to do at this pool for all ages: Splash ground area for little kids, big dumping water tower, wave pool, big water slides and then the smaller water slides on the train. Addison and Asher are free (4 and under are free I believe), Alivia is $4.24 and I was $5.75. So, it was $10 for about 20 minutes of play. I am doing a lot of that lately. I am a slow learner.
I think we will have to try again. Maybe I can find a day that it is REALLY 90 degrees and then go to the pool. Happy summer!
