Whether it's trips to our favorite hiking spots, rendezvous in Cleveland, or adventures at Cedar Point, or other places along the beautiful shores of Lake Erie, we have always got things to do and places to go. Summer is my favorite season, so I always try and make the most of it before Ohio enters its annual Deep Freeze that feels like it lasts most of the year. Summer is my time to shine!
Anyway, recently we headed to Cedar Point Shores Waterpark, formerly known as Soak City. This very thrilling park is on site at Cedar Point, which is great. We can enjoy the waterpark in the morning, and then head over to the main park to ride some coasters. It's the kids' favorite place on the planet, and we spend a ton of time here in the summer months. ***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples and information to facilitate my post.
