Six Flags, Concerts, and Tales by the Campfire

from Kelsey....

Today was by far the best day of our trip for me. We went to Six Flags!! The very first ride we went on was Superman and it was awesome! It had a huge drop and just had a really good track. My mom encountered a problem though, because when she was already sitting down in the roller coaster car seat, all buckled and all, they came around to check her seatbelt and would not let her ride because of her waist pack. She was very upset by this and the same thing happened to Regan when she was about to go on a flume ride in a bikini and they told her 2 seconds before boarding that she needed a top and bottoms on. We were so surprised and happy to learn that we just happened to go to Six Flags the day that Katherine McPhee was performing there for free! Regan and I were psyched about it the whole day and couldn’t wait. There is a rollercoaster that passes over the stage Katherine performed on, and a few hours before the show, Regan and I were on the rollercoaster, and Katherine waved to us!!!! We were very excited by that.

Later on, when we were on our way to the concert, we passed a candy shop which had a sign saying that if you bought 2 bags of starbursts, you get a VIP pass to the concert. Of course, my mom being the greatest that she is (major brownie points here), bought Regan and me each 2 bags so we each received a VIP pass. We sat three rows from the stage! It was a great surprise when we learned that the all-girl band Everlife was performing too! We got some awesome pictures. After the show, Katherine was signing autographs, and we waited what seemed like forever, but I got her autograph and got a picture with her too!! We headed back to the RV Park after an amazing day. Cindy made her specialty, mac and cheese, for dinner. Regan and I finished watching our DVD and then we had to go outside by the fire and do our blogs. Of course, my dad cracked many of his jokes and had Cindy laughing so hard, you don’t even want to know what happened. Basically, in the end, she was saying “I can’t breathe!” We had many laughs tonight and I’m sure there will be plenty more to come on this trip.
