Before school started, we promised the kids we would take them to Kings Island. Aunt Tiffy, Grandma & PaPaw wanted to come too!! So we decided to pick a day during the week, thinking the park wouldn't be over crowded - a Tuesday. It wasn't too bad, but we still had to wait about 20 minutes to ride some of the newer rides. A BIG thanks to Aunt Kim & Nana for spending the day with Axten!!! He had so much fun with you!!!
Trentin was in charge of the map!! He could NOT wait to ride the Diamondback!! It's all he talked about on the way to Kinds Island, and the weeks prior.
In order to ride the Diamondback (and most of the bigger roller coasters) you needed to be 54 inches tall. Trentin is 52.5 inches, and if he didn't get to ride the Diamondback, he would be absolutely devastated, which would have ruined the whole day. So we cheated: Grandma wears the exact same size shoes as Trentin, and it just so happened that she was wearing her exercise "toning" shoes, with huge soles!! Those shoes, compared with Trentin's rolled up socks under his feet, but him well above the height limit, so he got that wonderful wristband that allowed him to ride all the rides!! He got to ride the Diamondback, TWICE.
