We tried that once and it made a couple of the kids get motion sickness. DANG! We're not the best travelers around, but it is fun when you get there. It looks like you had a wonderful time. Now just relax and have fun in your hammock!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04822349860045198789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045183931621521295.post-68769220958195426002009-07-03T13:09:41.501-06:002009-07-03T13:09:41.501-06:00How fun!
