Aqualibi...Revisited!

It's been a while since we've visited Aqualibi, but with the new school year quickly approaching, we are trying to fit lots of fun things in before homework takes over our lives.  
We are so lucky this waterpark is only about 20 minutes from our house.  Walibi is the adjoining amusement park that you can see through the glass enclosure.  The kids have been to Walibi with Chris, but I'll certainly need to go because they said it was AWESOME!  I found out just today that Walibi has a Halloween event similar to Fright Fest at Six Flags.  We will definitely have to see that! 
I've had the pleasure of doing these slides over and over again on past visits.  The kids would never let me skip the rapids, which is the attraction that would never be allowed in the US.  You attempt to swim, slide, and dive gracefully while dodging others and trying to keep your head above the water. My main goal is to get to the bottom without drowning and making sure my children do not drown as well.  I just assume I will be missing teeth after each run.  You may remember the busted chin on Thomas just weeks after we arrived in Belgium.  Yes, same attraction.  But today, I actually got to sit in a chair and chat because we came with FRIENDS!!!  Okay, okay, I did give in and do the rapids...just once...and I emerged with all of my teeth.
The group!  Such great friends!
Note the change in swim attire on the boys (it's required.)  Needless to say, Chris hasn't been to Aqualibi, and I'm not sure I will ever get him there.  He says he'll just stick to Walibi.
Before leaving, we always get a waffle.  They are delicious.  Allison claims they are the best in the Brussels area.  Miss A's waffle was so good she decided to wear it...all over her face. So cute! :)

Until next time,
Wendy
