For our final day in San Antonio, we headed to Morgan's Wonderland. I found it under "family fun" on visitsanantonio.com, so we took a chance and tried it out. We LOVED it. I highly recommend this park if you have young children. We spent hours there, and Jake never bored. It's considered an "inclusive park" because it was designed with special attention of those with special needs. Ultimately, it's a great place for everyone and our family definitely enjoyed it. Jake played in the sand...
He drove a car in an "adventure ride"...
had fun on pirate island...
Here he is giving his best "arrrgh"...
He played a lot on all the awesome playscapes...
tried out a zebra on the carousel...
drove remote controlled boats. He loved this! Just look at this face...
and this face...
The most unexpected and random fun we had that day was Jake getting his very own pickleball lesson. There is a really nice gym at the park, and we went inside to take a look. It just so happened there was a pickleball club playing and inviting guests to come and give it a try. A few of the members immediately approached us and asked Jake if he wanted to try and Jake said yes, so the lesson began. Jake's hand eye coordination is pretty good so they seemed pretty impressed by his raw skill. Here's Coach Ed showing him how it's done...
and here's Jake ready to go as Coach Ed was throwing balls to him to hit back. I had honestly never heard of pickleball before that day, so it was a definite surprise to add this new sport to Jake's repertoire!
Jake tried out the carousel again, this time choosing an elephant...
Daddy joined him on this go-around...
And finally, here's a family pic in front of this beautiful sculpture at the park's entrance. We definitely had a great trip that ended with a great discovery!
