Gillian's Wonderland Pier!!

Gillian's Wonderland Pier on the Ocean City boardwalk had a special night last week where all rides were only 1 ticket! Imagine the savings that means for a family of 6!! It started at 6pm, so we actually got there a bit early and were one of the first inside. It was great to get on several rides with no wait at all.






Tim took Kaitlyn on this Slingshot ride:
It takes you up to the top slowly...up and up....
All the way to the top...then
Drops you down!!

We met up with a friend of mine (yet ANOTHER Jennifer!) and her daughter Maddie (yep, another Maddie too!). Of course, by about 7pm, it got really crowded, but we were still able to get on all the rides we wanted to. I even took Kaitlyn on an 'adult' roller coaster - just her and I...we sat in the very first seat and put our hands in the air together -- It was GREAT FUN!






Last ride of the night - the Ferris Wheel:
It was so beautiful and peaceful...
Megan & Madison decided to ride with Jennifer & Maddie:


Then at 9pm, they had fireworks, which happened to be on the beach right near where we parked the car. So after our fun on the rides, we sat at the car and watched the fireworks. Megan & Madison were so afraid of the loud bangs that followed each set of fireworks, so they sat in the car with their hands over their ears!


It was a really nice night, we enjoyed perfect family time together & I am so thankful for that!
