Day Two Hundred and Fifty-One:  Just One of THOSE Days…

Yes, a fabulous one.  I’ve wanted to go to Canada’s Wonderland for a long time, and since my whole eye condition/surgeries I have no actually been allowed on rollercoasters.  But as of 2012 my surgeon gave me the go ahead, but I have had no time or obstacles have come up between me and this theme park, but not today.  No, today was the day where I ventured through the park, giggled, danced, screamed, and almost “ripped my pants” as only the kidlets who joined me will understand.  Today, today, today.

After a little bump in the road starting off (poor Maya couldn’t join us after all, unfortunately) we headed off and made our way there, highway after highway in my parents’ car, and after arriving found a “Tame” ride to start with for Judith who has been afraid of rollercoasters.  After that we carried through to some others, landing finally on the Behemoth, which used to be Canada’s largest coaster.  By far my favourite pre=lunch ride I giggled and screamed my way through that one.  We all found ourselves in need of a rest though, motion sickness had hit us all after speeding through so many rides.

So lunch came and went, and after our tummies settled we found the Vortex which was fabulous, such a great ride, and then the Bat which was my favourite other than LEVIATHON.  Which if I do say so myself, being Canada’ biggest rollercoaster, was amazing.  Longest wait of my life but I didn’t hold onto the gate infront of me but let my hands fly, as we all tried to, because man that ride was fast and huge and terrifying but so exciting.  I can actually still feel my head spinning.

Then funnel cake happened, and we tried to find the car, and got stuck in traffic, and laughed a lot  and know I’m back home anti-climactically sitting at my desk preparing for tomorrow’s classes.  Might have a small dinner later on but for now I am just basking in the afterglow of a fabulous day.  How lucky am I that I have such adventurous and supportive and fun friends?  What a friggen great day.

Now for this week, which will just be plain old school and rehearsal and attempting to use a slow cooker for the first time.  Little adventures I suppose, no?  I hope everyone has been enjoying a lovely Sunday, take care.
