We have been compensated with a two-night stay at the Cape Codder Resort and additional amenities. Opinions are 100% our own.
We started the day off at the Cape Codder Resort. The kids had a surprise Easter egg hunt in the room. During the night E.B. came through and hid 8 eggs for each of the kids. They woke up and found a note from E.B. telling them that he came and hid eggs. They kids were great about being fair with each other and finding all the eggs. We packed up and then did our last activity at the resort. There was a special Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt that took place throughout the entire resort. We went from the Arcade to the Gazebo Cafe, Grand Cru, Outdoor Pool and the outdoor deck. If you followed the map then you ended up back at the lobby where each kid received a Russel Stovers chocolate bunny and then met the Easter bunny for a photo. Below you can see my entire recap video of our weekend trip and more.
I think that two days of bringing my phone to the water with me at Great Wolf Lodge was tempting fate enough. So there are no images from our runs today. We got up fairly early and got ourselves ready to go to the waterpark. The main objectives today was to enjoy the waterpark and complete the MagiQuest. One goal we dominated and the other we came up short.
I went and got Allison another coffee at the Dunkin Donuts. On the way there I asked at the front desk if it was possible for us to get late checkout. We weren’t told when we checked in and got VIP status if that late checkout was part of it. So, I figured that I’d ask. They said no problem and that really took the pressure off. Now we could go and relax and enjoy our day.
We got to the waterpark at 9am when it opened and we looked around for Andrew’s Frogglez but they were not to be found anywhere. We checked the front desk via phone and then at the park itself but they were gone. They are too cool for anyone not to pass up as they walk by. So we had Andrew in regular goggles and there was the awful hair pulling for us to suffer through.
The park was pretty empty and we took advantage of that by making 8 runs in at the top of the platform. Andrew did the Otter Run four times in a row and so did I. I kept trying to catch him but he’d hit the bottom, jump up and sprint up those stairs to go again. Each time up the stairs got slower for me. Then we started going down the tube rides, Alberta Falls. I did not catch the names of both of these slides so we called them the light slide and the dark slide. The dark slide was slower and the light slide had a big drop. Andrew and I did double rides down both of those slides over and over. I kept thinking that he was going to slip out from my legs and under the tube, he wasn’t but that was my fear. He just made it for height. He’ll be able to do his own tube by himself next time. The kid has no fear. So, I’d say we dominated goal number one for the day. We did all we wanted to do in the water park in an hour and a half.
