Well, for as lucky as we were at the water park the next day at Busch Gardens our luck kind of ran out. Disclaimer: Ever since my skin cancer episode I have become even more crazy than I already was with protecting my children's skin so don't worry, I know it is nerdy that they have hats and long sleeved swim shirts on. Anyway, Busch Gardens was a beautiful park with lots of shade though on a 90-something degree day, shade only gets you so far. There were many fun kiddie rides and the children were really enjoying themselves for the most part. We had lunch while we watched a show that had performers which was nice; and air conditioned. Aly was unable to take a good nap so she wasn't her best and soon after lunch Kohen started crying and saying that his ear hurt. In the last picture you can see him holding his ear which made me feel so bad. Pretty soon the general consensus was 'enough'. We were actually there for 5 hours so that was pretty good all things considered. We went back to the hotel and called Rosie and she helped us to find a Dr. near by and Nathan took him in and got him some medicine for an ear infection. Then we spent a while swimming in the hotel pool which was really nice and refreshing. Later Nathan and I got to talking about how one of the unexpected joys of parenthood is watching your children have fun and enjoy themselves- but on the other hand it was so difficult to walk around this big awesome park and not get the chance to ride
one ride for yourself... Our Conclusion: A time and a season for all things...
