***CLOSED***Giveaway-Schlitterbahn Waterparks
***Disclosure-I will be receiving complimentary tickets for my family in exchange for this post. Any opinions stated are my own based on my personal experience.
Last month in my post Aren't you suppose to be on Vacation, I told you about my awesome get-a-way trip (sponsored) to South Padre Schlitterbahn Resort. Summer has begun, the kids are out of school, and the weather is perfect to hit their waterparks.
Need some excuses to hit the waterpark:
1) INDOOR WATERPARK-Worried about being in the sun all day? No worries because with an indoor waterpark you can stay nice and cool and away from the sun. You can bring the babies and toddlers without risk of being in the sun too long. (Schlitterbahn is America’s #1 waterpark for 15 years and has won awards for the best indoor waterpark, best waterpark ride, and best new ride.)
2) SURFING 101-If you read my post last month, you know I did the Boogie Bahn and had a blast. It was so much fun! I never had tried surfing but this was so much fun to try and actually do. If my 14 year and I can do it, so can you!! (Schlitterbahn has been the birthplace of nearly every waterpark ride innovation including the world’s first uphill water coaster and the inland surfing ride, the Boogie Bahn.)
3) Need more reasons or excuses to grab the family and go to these waterparks because there is more than one. And each is different and has so much fun things to do.
Every park has a claim to fame:
· New Braunfels: So much fun to relax and enjoy this tude ride! (World’s longest tube ride; America’s Favorite Waterpark)
· South Padre: So cool. You don't even have to walk because of the interconnected river feature. (World’s first Transportainment system where interconnected rivers are queue lines for rides.)
· Galveston: So close to home for us. (World’s favorite indoor park)
· Kansas City: We haven't been here, not yet but have it on our bucket list. (Midwest’s longest tubing adventure) 4) It won't cost you and arm and a leg with a special discount via this link- http://www.schlitterbahn.com/ bloggers The promo code for the 2 day $7 Off discount is 299000334
The promo code for the $5 off discount is 299000335

5) BEST REASON EVER...BYOP!! You can bring your own picnic. Bring your own cooler. (No alcohol or glass containers, coolers will be checked) Schlitterbahn saves mami’s budget by offering free parking, and free life jackets. Food prices are reasonable and healthy options abound.
Well I will give you one more reason, win free tickets here!!
