It's been a long week. Everyone is tired. The kids are punchy. And Max is half sick. The day was off to a rough start as even Clair showed signs of wearing down after a fit going into the park when we would hang out at the front gate while she buckled her stroller and pooped In her diaper. Opps.
David and I did escape to enjoy the new coaster the incredible hawk and it was pretty cool. It shoots you up the hill like a rocket launch instead of the slow gentle climb one is used to with big coasters. That jolt gives a nice starting kick.
We spent the morning in Dr Seus land before finally arriving at Hogsmead in the afternoon. It was packed. But I surely enjoyed seeing the books and movies become alive. I also enjoyed a couple ciders as we wondered through the land and waiting for out tour of Hogswart. The whole thing was awesome. I'm not sure if anyone else really appreciated it like I did. I think Ellie tried. I think Hazel probably did. But otherwise it may have been just another park. Definitely my Mom didn't really enjoy the day which is sad. I am glad we went. Although I imagine most of the crew would have preferred another day at Disney.
Tomorrow we are off to meet Winter the dolphin finally. The kids have been looking forward to this since we told them about the trip. I think it is the most anticipated event. I sure hope it holds up in their minds. I'm a little worried what will happen if it doesn't.
The kids have been great this week. We've been up early and out unt past 9 each night. They are going nonstop except Clair's in stroller naps. I'm tired and my feet hurt. I'm sure they are tired. But they are handling this like pros! I do hope we can afford more family trips. There's always more to do and our kids are proving they can handle traveling. This is a great thing for me! I better start saving.
