Disneyland and California Adventure
This day was much better. We got to Disneyland at 9am. There were a lot more people, but the lines for the Matterhorn were short so we rode it several times. The boys got to do their favorite rides a bunch. Then we headed over to California Adventure. Derek LOVED California Screemin, so life was good again! We went on the grizzly river rapids and got drenched, how fun is that?! The highlight of MY day was the ferris wheel!! They have this very cool looking ferri wheel, where the cars are on loops and swing freely on this big loop while the ride goes around. We were all looking forward to it! Not long after the ride began, Colin got very nervous and I got very queasy. By the time we had made it half way around I wanted to crawl in a hole and die!! I asked to get off when we got to the bottom, but they said no, I had to go around again. Luckily, they have barf bags in the cars! I filled mine up! Colin stopped crying with his concern for me. when we got off the ride, I was greener than kermit the frog! I was completely useless then! I couldn't move my eys from side to side I was that sick. I don't know when I have ever felt that bad with any kind of motion sickness except perhaps the cruise we went on a few years back. Anyway, the boys were done around 4:30 and begged to go back to the trailer. Becky, Marcus' cousin thought our boys were a bit odd. How many kids beg to leave a theme park?
When we got back to the trailer we had some nice chat time with Becky. It was her birthday and so we took her to Fire and Ice for dinner. Again, we had a great time! We were back in our trailer and in bed by 9:30! Smith hours are back!

If I threw up on a ride I doubt I could muster a 5 for the day, much less a 7! I have a rule on rides, if they come equipped with barf bags I'm not riding.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the cruise won't make you that sick. Come to think of it, I've never seen a barf bag on one.
