It’s Finn’s spring break this week and we surprised him with a trip to Great Wolf Lodge in PA (^_^) He didn’t know we were going to stay there until we got there and checked-in and brought the bags up to the room =P
As soon as we put our stuff in room, the boys got ready to swim while I thought of taking pictures that afternoon so that the next couple of days, I can enjoy the place without having to carry the camera with me. We also visited the arcade but didn’t play yet.
The next day, Finn and I bought our wands for the MagiQuest. It’s an interactive adventure game within the hotel where you go on quests to gain runes and go up in rank to become a Master Magi. There are also 3 adventures where you can fight the red dragon in one of them. Pretty cool! It’s also very tiring coz you need to go up and down the stairs to find what you need for the quests. Finn and I did 3 quests in the morning, went to the water park and then continued our quests in the afternoon, finally becoming Master Magi in just one day! Boy were our feet tired! We also went to the arcade and started collecting tickets but didn’t redeem it yet.
Wednesday was spent mostly in the water park. We got to go on all the “rides”, even Finn! There’s a total of 7 major rides plus twin slides that are 3 stories tall, the wave pool, the swimming pool, the obstacle pool and the lazy river. Then for the little kids, they have 4 of their own little slides and a pool. There’s also a hot tub that we weren’t able to go to coz it’s only for 21 and older and we couldn’t leave Finn. After dinner, we went to the arcade to play some more, then Finn and I started on the adventure part of MagiQuest with the Pixie and the Bear.
Thursday was our last day. After breakfast, we finished doing our adventures and beat the Red Dragon, yay! Then we went to the arcade, collected more tickets from the games and had a total of 2,750 tickets! Finn chose a light show thingie worth 2,500 tickets, a light-up yoyo for 150 and a GWL rubber wrist band worth 100 tickets.
Then we did our souvenir shopping, checked-out and went on our way. We stopped by at this scenic overlook somewhere on the way home.
Had lunch at a Sonic Drive-In where I ate a footlong chili cheese dog … mmmmmm. There was even instructions on how to eat it:
It was a very tiring vacation, but so much fun that I didn’t mind (^_^) Finn can’t wait to go back there.
We then headed to Bryant Park, hoping that we could play ping pong but the attendant wasn’t there. There were 2 pairs playing but they brought their own paddles and ball.
