Heide Park on "Pentecost Monday"

We had decided to take this last opportunity for a family outing at Heide Park, an amusement park a little south of Hamburg, and not quite two hours away from here. We have driven that Autobahn on numerous occasions, but never has it been so empty! In Germany most trucks are prohibited from driving on Sundays and holidays. The first picture shows Danika, Donovan, Dustin and Danielle waiting for Daddy to get the tickets. Our first ride was an old merry-go-round. The middle girl is Cassandra F.. We enjoyed the day at the park with Stephen K. and the Fueller family, as well as our teacher, Amber, Danae's boyfriend, Manuel, and three of the Matthia teens. Most of my pictures are of the younger group. The older kids headed off for the "Big Rides", and our planned group picture at our lunch meeting was rained out. We got pretty wet as it rained for several hours in the afternoon, but the lines were short and everyone had great time. ;)
