This past Sunday was a first for me. It was my first visit to Visionland, my first participation at a water park and my first glimpse at a food court with only one restaurant (located at the Visionland Outlet Mall). At Visionland, I almost lost my vision a few times. Walking into the complex I was met by a 40+ year old lady who easily weighed 300 or more pounds wearing a tiny little leopard print bikini. My eyes still hurt. Her stomach was so big that it hung over her bikini bottoms. After seeing that I suddenly didn't feel so modest in front of a bunch of strangers. I stayed in the water park for about an hour riding through the lazy river a few times, going on the toilet bowl slide (a water slide that spits you out into a bowl that you spin around until gravity pulls you out the hole in the bottom) and a water raft slide. It was pretty fun.

Visionland is certainly nothing to write home about though. There are maybe fifteen rides including a ferris wheel, log flume, and a couple roller coasters. I really liked their wooden roller coaster (the Rampage). It was really fast for a wooden coaster. The first drop was pretty steep and it didn't let up until the end.

I also learned on Sunday that we are getting a new addition to our household. My wife has decided to let me get an iguana (or two). I haven't had one since the summer after we first met. I probably won't be able to get them until mid-October, but that gives me plenty of time to do some research and planning.
