Last Day at Disney

Today was our last day to spend at Disneyland. We still had not gone next door to Disney Grand Adventure. The temperature was 113 degrees. Whew! I tell you it was so hot. I have never in my life sweat so much. Our clothes were soaked in sweat. This was a day of drinking lots of drinks and well...letting the kids eat lots of treats. :) Baby George was taking his mind off of the heat in this shot.

We headed for It's a Small World. 10 minute ride in air conditioned bliss! Ahhhhh.

You can see how hot everyone looks. Sweltering.

We had one last thing to do before heading to the pool. Jedi training! Mr. P and Busy Guy REALLY wanted to do it. They eagerly jumped up and down and both got picked to come on stage and be trained as Jedi Knights. Sis was happy with the $17.00 spray fan we bought. I didn't care if it was $100.00!!! It really helped cool us off.

Busy Guy got to fight Darth Vader. Wow! The Jedi took one look at Busy Guy and commented that someone must have turned on the cloning machine! LOL. After Darth Vader was defeated he turned to leave the stage. Sis hollered "Bye Batman!!". It was hilarious. Her brothers were mortified.

Day Three

Today's temperature.....103 degrees! Well, by now we knew it wasn't going to get any cooler so we just put our head down and marched forward. We planned to have as much fun as we could before collapsing from the heat. We loved all the fun decorations for Halloween Season at Disneyland. How cute is this big Mickey pumpkin...and the family isn't bad either!

The boys (Cam, Mr. P, Tuba and occasionally Busy Guy) went on Matterhorn about a zillion times. They loved it! We got Tuba a wheel chair to push him around in. It helped with his heat exhaustion and kept him from getting too tired and cranky. When he heats up he cannot cool down and then his seizure potential is worse.

We tried this ride to see if we could get enough wind to cool off. Nope but it was fun anyway.

While the boys went on Splash Mountain (that was the best ride for cooling off) the wee ones, Busy Guy and I enjoyed meeting Pooh, Tigger, and Eeyore. The LOVED them. God bless those people wearing those fuzzy suits in that heat!!

We made it to about 2:00 pm and then we were done. I had heat rash that was on fire burning and itching, Tuba was about to fall out of his wheelchair, and the rest of them looked like Busy Guy here. Done and ready for the pool!
