Heatstroke










Which is what I thought I was going to have today at Busch Gardens. It was about 97, so the heat index was about 107 we were told. They cancelled the Pet Shenanigans show, because it was too hot for the animals. Icecream melted faster than we could eat it. It was still fun though, Rachel and I did our rollercoasters, the Big Bad Wolf and the Loch Ness Monster. Don't they look cool? I couldn't get her to go on the Apollo's Chariot with me, but I am counting my blessings. We all did the Darkastle. Overall it was fun, but a lot of walking in this heat.
Yesterday we were at the Waterpark. That was fun, but would you like to swim in this? It was wall to wall bodies, like a meat market.



I prefer our own pool. We did a lot of the slides though, they were fun, Michael was a lot braver this year.
We left early enough to be able to head over to downtown Williamsburg, which is just adorable. Phil loves the College bookstore there and we always stop at the Candystore right across the street. We will probably head over there again tomorrow, after checking out and before heading to the beach. We found a KMart tonight and got some water and other stuff. I just took advantage of the sale at DD, found some great stuff at a great price. So far it has been a great trip and Phil is relaxing. Just getting away from work is doing him good.

Your photos are great, BUT I can't believe you went on that rollercoaster. There is no way you would get me on it!
I did some shopping at DD as well, can't wait to start playing with it.
