We are driving home today. It is around a 10 hour drive, but we have to stop for lunch, gas, bathroom breaks, etc. We left Santa Clarita at 9:00 am and headed for Las Vegas. The kids slept for the first 3 hours and then we stopped in Primm, Nevada for bathroom break. There is a roller coaster at the Casino in Nevada, and the kids could not resist, but to go on it. Erika and Rachel were the only ones that went on it. It is like Goliath at Six Flags. Rob, Sarah, Riley, Erika & Rachel all went on the log flume ride they have inside the casino. We were going to stop in Las Vegas for lunch, but we decided since we were already stopped, that we would just have lunch there. The casino had a mini food court with different varieties of food, so everyone choose something different and ate and we were able to get free ice cream too. After about an hour and a half, we decided we better get on the road again. We drove to St. George and stopped to gas up and get some drinks. We then stopped in Fillmore to dinner at the local Arby's. We were all tired and a bit silly, but after a half an hour we needed to get home. We arrived at our homes at around 10:00 pm that evening. What a long day and drive, but it was good and fun for the kids and the adults too. We decided that we have had enough of Six Flags for this year and maybe for 5 years. The kids want to go to either Disneyland or Disneyworld next year during our Spring break time. Not sure that is going to happen with have a missionary out, but who knows.
