The six of us reported to Sesame Place as directed, right as the park opened. There was an all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet which was pretty nice, but the pavilion was crowded and difficult to use with high chairs. It was chilly in the morning but warm in the afternoon.

After breakfast, we traversed the park, which turned out to be mostly water rides. There was a roller coaster, but we skipped it because the twins weren’t old enough (min. req. 3 years). There was a balloon-like ride which we did ride. It was a good idea, but the cars were seriously kid-sized. :) The kids spent the most time in a mini-park, where a net covering a pile of yoga balls led up to a high slide. That and the parade were the kid’s favorite activities.

We attended two shows, Elmo’s World and Oscar’s Show of Games, both entertaining for the kids. The staff treated us well, and the park was very clean. Park photographers had taken three pictures of us, but they weren’t composed right—two of them were back-lit horribly and the third had our kid’s face turned away from the camera.

Breakfast in Chaos Breakfast in Chaos
About 10 characters floated about Big Bird’s Pavilion while everyone ate an all-you-can-eat buffet. Plenty of pictures were taken.
Elmo's World — Live Elmo’s World — Live
Elmo hosts his own live show. The show later features Mr. Noodle’s cousin, Mr. Noodle, who collided into walls and did other silly things.
Sesame Street Parade Sesame Street Parade
Bert and Ernie do a Run DMC impersonation during the parade. Sesame Place was celebrating 25 years with a rock ‘n’ roll theme.

We had a good time, and were we to go again, we would probably go a month or two earlier and bring swimwear. :) Tomorrow we drive all the way home.
