Park Exhaustion

The parks beat us today. Disney won. Defeated. Dejected. Lost. The best planning, preparing, training, and strategy and we got out but kicked. Yesterday we were at Magic Kingdom for ten hours with temperatures in the 90's and humidity that made it feel over 100. we arrived home after 1am. With under six hours sleep, we got up and headed to Ohana for breakfast today, then over to Epcot. 


We were tired. My oldest fell asleep on the monorail ride, but we tried to push on. It was hot, 95 degrees and felt over 100 with the humidity. The sun was relentless and burned with a sting. It was difficult to stay hydrated and with that Ohana breakfast, we felt like slugs. We couldn't stop sweating and were drenched. 

I think our bodies were digesting the giant meal we just ate and this added to our misery. I went through five water bottles by continually refilling it, and all that water had little effect to improve my hydration. 


I was tired. Every time I sat down I didn't want to get back up. It felt like my shoes were covered in cement as each step was painful. The boys had no interest in being active and just wanted to go sit somewhere in air conditioning, or ride the monorail for an hour. 

After four hours at Epcot and only a few things finished, we surrendered and headed home. Defeated. The park beat us. We couldn't keep up. 


We went back to the house and enjoyed the air conditioning and everyone napped for hours.
