Great Adventures

BEA is finally over! All that planning and it seems to come and go so fast- almost like Christmas, except I like Christmas. So I left Wednesday and finally came home Sunday. I was sick the entire time and I still feel like shit. Sinuses- what a joy! But we all had an ok time down there. There were some nice dinners with the DK folks. We even had a dinner and some drinks with some DK peeps from the past. It was fun reminiscing and playing some DK trivia. I wish I could have hung around later that night and had some more drinks, but I just needed to get some rest- yes, what I just said is true, I chose sleep over drinking. Crazy right?
Yesterday was a planned day off. We had planned on going to Great Adventure for Frankie's birthday for a long time and I wasn't going to let him down. I think we all had a good time, and I know my niece and nephew had a good time. Robert had his first real interaction with characters- Tweety and Sylvester. He didn't want to leave them and I don't think they wanted to leave him either. He was having so much fun dancing and playing with them. Then I noticed a group of Japanese kids that at first seemed like they wanted to take a picture with the characters- after a few minutes I noticed the only character they were interested in was my nephew. None of them spoke English but they were getting a kick out of him. Snapping pictures of him laughing and dancing and then they started taking pictures with him! It was hysterical!!! He is such a little ham.
After we finally were able to pry him away from them, we were soon on our way home, which was nice since I was starting to crash. I woke up this morning feeling worse, which I didn't think was possible so I decided to stay home and just relax. I've been taking all kinds of cold and sinus stuff and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. I'm praying it goes away soon. After BEA is when I usually get my life back and this is not helping.
