[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the third area I’ve lived with kids and I’ve never seen anything like it. The first couple of times I thought it just must have been an especially busy day but it’s every time/every place.  My kids spend so much time waiting in lines that’s it’s not even worth it to go anywhere anymore.
Places we have tried:
Aquarium
Port discovery
Climbzone
Urban air
Meland
Zavazone
All these places have been so full so we just wanted to leave.

Also why is there no roller rink in Montgomery county? I have never lived in a place that didn’t at least have one roller rink?

People go to those places on the weekends and the holidays because they are not available during the other times. Are you available during those times? The aquarium on a week day is very nice, and the membership is worth it as long as you go like 4x a year.

I feel you on the roller rink, though. What I appreciated about DC was the large number of outdoor rinks that are open in various parts of the DMV for most of the winter. I personally felt that was an okay substitute based on my own skating ability. That said, I think this is generational and that rollerskating is not as common as it was when you were a kid. For me as a teenager, bowling alley, movie theater, and mall were what we did when our roller rink closed in like 1993.[/quote]
