Howling Wolf

We started our first full day at the Great Wolf Lodge with waterslides!

First Camilla posed in the Great Wolf Lodge chair.

Then somewhere I saw this blurry multi-color flower.

Camilla surprised us by wanting to go on the scariest water slide: the Tornado!

She was tall enough for the ride, but, wanting to go on the Tornado was a big change from last year when she stuck to the kiddie slides.

Although we didn’t get many pictures of the slides, I did get this picture of the outside of the Tornado as seen from our hotel room. It shows the shape of a feature that gives the slide its name. The slide is mostly pretty dark in the tubes of the Tornado.

The Tornado seats up to four people on a tube. Linda skipped the slide on our first voyage so that we’d be sure to have one survivor to return to Oviedo to tell the tale of our daring adventure to our pets if things didn’t go as planned. Linda joined us on a second ride down the Tornado, after we demonstrated it was safe and you didn’t get too wet.

Throughout the day we alternated between the wave pool, the hot tub, and slides.

Camilla tried nearly every slide in the park.

She even tried the bodyboard surf simulator. For that, you jump off a platform onto a bodyboard and ride it down a wall of water. It is like you are body surfing down the face of a large, continuous wave. Camilla’s swim lessons have definitely given her some courage when it comes to playing in the water.
