It was a great day to visit Blizzard Beach, one of two Disney water parks. This is a park full of waterslides, a wave pool, and a recreation area. Also, it has a waterslide with an 80 degree drop. It is the steepest water slide in all of Disney, and rightfully named the “Summit Plummet.”
First, we headed to the Ski Patrol, an area geared for 10-15 year olds. There is a water zip line, a swimming pool, water slides, and an ice floe walk. That is the most fun part in the Ski Patrol. There are tethered ice “floes” and you have to walk across them without falling off. The only thing you have to hold onto is a rope net above you. I only fell off once. Of course, my monkey sister didn’t fall off at all!
We decided to do some of the slides before they became too busy. Our first stop was Teamboat Springs, a family raft ride. This is really fun because your raft goes really high up the sides of the slide. You also make a large splash once you reach the bottom.
We rode a few more slides, and then we went back to the Ski Patrol area for awhile so we could take some pictures. Then we decided to go down Summit Plummet. It was definitely worth the wait. When you reach the bottom, there is a sign that tracks your speed. The slowest speed that I saw was 50 mph. Most people were going about 60!
After riding almost everything in the park, we called it a day. If you ever need to burn off some energy, spend the day at Blizzard Beach. I guarantee that you’ll be tired at the end of the day.
