FUN FUN FUN in the SUN!

Lunch at the golf course

March 5th

Today, we drove to SUN CITY!  Sun City is a beautiful resort.  It backs onto Pilanesberg National Park.  (we can go on safari when we are here) The resort has, a water park with water slides, wave pool, lazy river (not fun), Chimp and Zee  which is a rope and zip line course, a casino, arcade, ten pin bowling, movie theatre, restaurants...it basically has everything!  When we got here, we found out room.  The room is great.  After that, we went to the pool. They have new water slides at the hotel pool!  It was amazing.  The yellow water slide goes really fast if you go on your knees and the blue one is painful if you go on your belly. Oh - we saw a peacock at the pool.  Next, we went and checked out the park and exercise park.  Finally, back to the room for dinner and went to bed.

Today, we went to the Valley of the waves. It was so much FUN!  There are water slides, wave pools, lazy rivers and zip and rope course.  We rode some water slides.  I did one called the boomerang.  It is a very cool water slide and I will explain it to you when I get home.  We spent all morning at the water slides and then we had lunch.  After lunch, we decided to go zip lining and do the rope course.  It was so cool!  I think that the best part was going down the first zip line because we went over the lazy river.  The highest point was 19 feet and we zip lined over the wave pool.  After that, we went swimming to cool off and headed back to our room.  Then, we went to the park and workout park for awhile.  Finally, we came back to the room had dinner and went to bed.

Today, we woke up early and went on a game drive (safari) to the Pilanesberg National Park. We saw giraffe, elephant, impala, zebra, a mom hippo with her baby out of the water, and rhino. Then, Nate, Mom and I went mini golfing.  I won!  It was so awesome.  Then, we went to the pool. It was actually really fun.  We played there for awhile.  Then, we came back to the room and did some homework and my blog.  

We will be at Sun City until Friday.  I will make sure I bring my camera the next time we go to the valley of waves so you can see how cool it is.  

Happy birthday Sydney.
