We got to eat a pretty decent pizza buffet. The circus did a performance at 8, but the kids weren't interested in seeing it-they've seen it often enough already. The kids ran absolutely everywhere. They went down the slides, inside....
and out.....
They climbed through numerous tunnels
They played in the ball pit 
They hid in their favourite nest & did their sad look 
They played out in MonstroCity for a long time
They finished off the night by spending some time in art city. Ben made a wand and a crown. They both made some interesting things with clay-Maggie's were mostly flat with a few cuts on them, Ben made some teeth, a fountain and a hand. 
They were showing Pirates of the Caribbean at 11, so we watched a bit of that, but I gave up pretty soon after it started as I've seen it so many times already. We left Ben in the skate park and he ran around until around 1 am before he finally came to bed. In the morning, we got to go out on the rooftop, we haven't been up there before and it is really cool to see. 
The views of the City are great. 
Ben and Maggie got to ride the Ferris wheel. 
They loved going in the school bus that is hanging off the edge of the building (I tried not to think about what was below us) . 
I got a photo of Sam standing under the praying mantis, I never thought any of us would be that close to it, I have been looking at it up on the roof for years. 
Right after I took this picture, Ben fell in here, these stepping stones are not as stable as they look. Luckily, he made it to the side without getting too wet, but he wasn't impressed that we were all laughing at him-it was too funny not to. 
After we ate breakfast, it was time to pack up everything and go to work. All-in-all, it was a great event, the kids had a lot of fun and it was very different being there at night with not a lot of people around. Ben was not very keen on being in the caves because there was no-one but us in there, he said it was too spooky. The only real disadvantage was the fact that this is held on a Sunday night, you get very little sleep and Monday morning is still there when you get up....
