See World too: travel whine part II


Oh and on that extra day park hopping I was in Walmart. We had told the slightly (undiagnosed of course, why would we pay another specialist?) OCD eldest that he need not pack 15 of everything -we might do laundry on the trip or one can wear a shirt twice (actually even underwear but that would be too personal to mention) so we came up with a compromise of packing for 11 days. I didn't mean the pills, but I did keep saying 11, so when on the 3rd day he lost a pill I asked had he packed any extra... I spent an hour on the phone making various calls and locating the nearest pharmacy (-in a Walmart that is, because I might as well buy cheap Disney stuff while I waited) explaining it to the neurologists, verifying it went through etc. etc. Of course insurance doesn't cover this so the 6 days worth was ... well a lot of money that could have been used for more Mickey Mouse t-shirts.
And we also went to SeaWorld. Not the royal we since the other half had to be in meetings all day (why we went to Florida after all). Al day and just me and 3 out of 4 offspring. 100% of those offspring who need assistance. And when one of them broke down because he couldn't pick his own seat at the shows and was upset we never got splashed and wanted to come back alone -I did not by some miracle break down too. Because at that moment it just did not seem right that it was my 25 year old. It did not seem right to him either. On the other hand we did see a mime who was actually funny at the seal and otter show so in the end it was all worthwhile. We left laughing.
