If you are going to go to a waterpark, Cedar Point has one in their park. You don't have to pay to get into the park, you just pay to go to the waterpark. It's much better than Kalahari, IMO. Kalahari is too hyped up. I only go there to eat, and that is expensive. They just opened up some animal exhibit. It is only $5. You can pet/feed mountain goats, kangaroos, ostrich (spelling), zebras, giraffee, goats. It's small but fun. I would also suggest Kelly's Island as to Put-in-Bay. Put-in-bay is more for adutls, where Kelly's is more for children. I would not do the African, it's not worth it, and the animals have a tendency to scratch cars.
