Waterpark and ITP

So my family is planning on going to a waterpark for my mid-winter break in like a week and a half. About 2 weeks ago, my platelets were at around 19k with no symptoms though. My question is should I get some sort of boost before we go, or am I ok to go. I probably won't be going on any of the big slides, if that helps your answer. Thanks so much!!!
