1. I do not like to go poop anywhere but on my own little home potty.
2. Not going poop on my own little potty for days on end causes major stomach problems.
3. Stomach problems are not rectified with margaritas.
4. Everyone in the world has either a piercing or a tattoo. I was shocked to see so many, many people either tatted or holed up. Gross.
5. It is possible to get sick of eating out. Seven lunches and nights of restaurant food can give you a tummy ache. See #1 for further details.
6. I never pack the right stuff. In addition to the torrential rain, it was approximately 62 degrees every day. (It's friggin August! 80's and 90's are the norm!!!) This resulted in shopping for sweatshirts, sweatpants, and jeans. Oh, and the fact that I had to get some of them at the Polo Outlet is not my fault.
7. Oh the humanity of a public pool or waterpark. I just can't get over the fact of half nude people waddling all around me. I mean, for gawds sake, these people are basically wearing underwear! If I wanted to see the world in their underwear I would be a fly...so I could be the "fly on the wall."
8. Your kids can swim in the pouring rain and think it's fun.
9. Not a great idea to take a 8 year old mildly autistic boy horseback riding.
10. Don't you just love a condo that has a washer/dryer en suite? How sweet is that?
11. Onion rings are good....very damn good.
12. The making of a good margarita requires skill and talent. Not all bartenders have it.
13. I don't like amusement park rides. They are scary and weird. Why the hell would I want to get on a flying reindeer roller coaster? Especially when the sign entering the park said "some rides may be on delay due to the inclement weather. Braking systems need to be dry." Gee, thanks. Death by reindeer. How poetic.
14. Is there anything grosser that a public bathroom? Wet. Dank. Smelly. Pee on seat. YUCK. I hate them!!!!!!!!
15. Spending 8 days with my three children and husband is worth it all. We had so much fun! Many laughs and lots of smiles. Despite rain, cold, and constipation....it was one hell of a vacation!

TMI regarding the intestinal issues, but I have been guilty of that in the past so...
I thought horseback riding was suppose to be therapeutic for autistic children. No?
Water parks rock, you get to see all these people who look worse than you do!
Onion rings ARE damned good!
Loved the idea of death by reindeer! Braking systems need to dry??? Get thee to a Six Flags where the technology isn't a zillion years old!
The public restrooms here (and they are rather rare) are divided male and female and then further subdivided Indian and Western. The Indian ones consist of a hole in the ground, a spigot and a little tin cup, suitable for women (with very strong thighs) in sarees without undies, not American elementary school girls. I'll spare you further details.
Onion rings are very good, especially when dipped in fiery hot sauce and chased with a cold Kingfisher beer. There are compensations for the above :))
