Texas Freefall

While we were in Houston last week visiting my sisters,

we spent a day at Splashtown, a totally awesome water park.

And, for some reason, the first ride we decided to tackle was something called

The Texas Freefall.

That's a five-story free-fall water slide.

I honestly don't know what I was thinking.

Donny went first. He seemed a little stunned.

Remy went next...he TUMBLED at the bottom!

I was stuck up top (5 stories high!), freaking out. I could tell he was crying and hurt.

But, I still had to go down to get to him...and the fastest way down...

I think I flashed the entire waterpark during MY freefall.

And received the worst wedgie of my life.

It wasn't pretty.

It wasn't graceful.

I thought I was dying as I went over the edge.

I'm never gonna do it again.

Remy received a friction burn on his arm that we had to go to the first aid station for treatment. He's fine and was so brave that he went on more water slides after that.

We didn't do this slide again though.

More posts about Splashtown coming soon...

It was a BLAST!
