IdleWild, PA

July 11th Mama and I went on an adventure. Mama wasn't clear on the distance of this adventure until after she purchased the tickets.

She had heard about Storybook Forest at IdleWild and this was the summer she was determined to have me get my first glance. As we passed into the pages we first met Little Bo Peep who needed to go looking for her sheep. We saw Raggedy Ann, met Goldilocks and Pirate Ruby who had commandeered The Good Ship Lollypop. We also crossed the Troll's bridge and saw the goats living in his shack. I tried to pull the sword from the stone but it seemed pretty stuck. Red Riding Hood warned me to be careful of the Big Bad Wolf because he was out in the woods somewhere. I went inside Peter Piper's Pumpkin, saw the three little pigs by the brick house, road on Aladdin's carpet and so, so many other stories and characters.

After at least and hour and a half in the forest we went to the children's rides in another section of the park. I didn't want to wait in the line but ended up liking Mr. Roger's Neighborhood trolley ride the best. This is us after we invited all of the people to join King Friday at the palace for his "Hug and Song" celebration. I also rode in an airplane, in a race car and an old fashioned car, on a boat and even soared on the back of a dinosaur.
