Veega Land

Veega Land was so much fun to visit. It is a huge water park/amusement park that is just awesome. It was even bigger then I imagined and there were so many neat rides to go on. The cost was $300 rupee's a person so doing the math that makes it $7.50 per person. To figure that out you take the amount and divide by 2 then divide by 2 again and then move the decimal point over to the left one space. It's not too hard to figure out but takes some time getting used to it.

The day was overcast so that was ideal to be out all day, I still sun screened the boys up and down just in case. Most men were in shirts and shorts and some women were actually in a t-shirt and pants! I couldn't believe all the things to do here, and I was amazed at the way the park is run. They consider safety a top priority and there are lifeguards everywhere. Also with the water slides, they have a lot more Family rides like a giant tube ride. What left me wondering is why Canada (well, just Vancouver I guess. I can't really speak for all of Canada) hasn't set up the easy "pulley system" that they have in place here. Take the tube rides for instance, all the water parks I've been to in Canada you have to bring up your own. Here in India they have a pulley that does the work for you. It's so much faster and convenient! They have amazing rides to go on, a water - techno show and a huge roller coaster that splashes though a huge lake. Here is the link if you'd like to check it out. http://www.veegaland.com/ Everyone was very friendly and we had sooo many people wanting their pictures with the boys. Though out the day when Dan took Ethan on some slides, Alex has his own little group of friends that followed him wherever he went. They all want to touch him and make him smile. He had really great time with the little boy in the picture, his name was Achoo; yes that's really his name! In another picture there was this "little man" walking around the park waving at everyone so we decided to meet him. He was very friendly and I found out he was 32 years old and only slightly bigger than Ethan. The boys liked it when he talked to them, Ethan later said he sounded like the guys from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! We also took Saneesh with us for a Thank you to helping us get around Cochin. He really enjoyed himself, he has a lot of fun with the boys. I just found out that he will have an arranged marriage when he turns 30. I feel kinda sad for him, but I know that's how life is run here. It definitely makes me feel lucky and special that Dan and I found each other so young and love each other so much. So to whomever comes to visit us, bring a suit cause we're taking ya!
