Knotts Berry Farm

It was Holden's weekend with me and if you remember from a previous post, he wanted to go to a "land" place such as Disneyland or Legoland. I took him to Knotts Berry Farm Land because Jisselle already had tickets and I like that place. It costs much less, has fewer crowds and more exciting rides than Disneyland.

Before we left, I measured Holden to see what rides he could go on. I was surprised to see he could go on all rides except for four that required riders to be 54". Holden is now 50". Funny aside: Yesterday I was talking to someone at work about how Holden is fifty inches already. She said, "Fifty inches? How much is that in feet? Four feet.....two, right? Why didn't you just say 4'2"?" I replied, "Knotts posts everything in inches. But still, it's amazing, isn't it, that a kid that's only 87 months old gets to go on all these great rides.?" I crack myself up.

Turns out two of the rides Holden couldn't go on weren't even operating that day. He missed out on Supreme Scream, which he will love when he's tall enough, and Silver Bullet. He got to go on everything else. He had a hard time picking a favorite but we went on Montezuma's Revenge several times. Jisselle didn't go on any fun rides. She did bumper cars and the mining car ride. I didn't know she was afraid of roller coasters. Still, she was a good sport waiting while we went on all the fun rides.
