Fine Planning

The kids had a student-free day on Monday which means it's teacher in-service day. I told Hector about it and he managed to get the day off. Of course this was waaaay before I realized that Monday Sept. 27, 2010 would be THE HOTTEST DAY EVVVVVVER!
We went anyway. The good news is that the park was nearly empty. Seriously. I think there were about < 20 cars in the parking lot. The bad news is...well, you already know that. The good news is that there was minimal or no wait time so we went on all the rides that us adults along with the kids could ride. Total time spent at park = 3 hours. One hour was spent at Mrs. Knotts Chicken Dinner Restaurant where we ate chicken and drank our body weight in fluids. So that means we spent 2 hours in the park...minus 20 minutes in the rock/mineral store taking advantage of the AC. The kids rode practically everything in Camp Snoopy and after lunch we went on the Calico Mine Ride and the Log ride. Then we called it a day.
Phew.

I took pictures too. Btw, the temp was recorded at 113* in LA and the stopped working so it might have been even hotter. Officially, it was the hottest day ever recorded since 1800-something. :)
