Well, would you look at that. We're out of San Antonio. I warned you that today would be rather uneventful. That was mostly true. We did do 1 more day at Schlitterbahn to make the most of our passes. More fun was had. Also much frustration around the food situation...again. They just "didn't have food yet" around lunch time and "ran out of food" by late afternoon. So you've been warned. If you go to Schlitterbahn you have like a 2 hour window around noon to actually get food.
There was one incident. One of the "rapid" type lazy rivers was pretty backed up. So there is a small drop and people were literally piling up on each other at the bottom. One of the people in the bottom of the pile ended up being Joran. She was flipped upside down in her tube with people piled all over her so she couldn't get up. She finally got flipped over somehow, but not soon enough. She was absolutely terrified and not having any more of "water rides" after that. Understandably. She's our most calm and easy going kid usually. So seeing her so scared and upset is one of those things that breaks me.
We also had lightning strike nearby so all the rides got shutdown about an hour early. After a 20-30 minute wait with no more lightning they opened it back up. Since most people left we were able to rush and get a few last minute rides in right before they closed.
We got to our hotel super late and found the carpet was wet (leaking AC) so they switched our room. So here we are. Midnight. Tired. Sunburnt. Near Death Experiences.
Peace Out my friends.
