43°

[c9]

It's going to be 43° here tomorrow. 43°. And what did we decide to do? Go to Canada's Wonderland* of course. We are going to melt. Suggestions for things to bring that are not going to be a nuisance every time we get on the rollercoasters, since that's the primary goal for the trip?


* "Paramount Canada's Wonderland" is the actual name of the park, though Paramount sold it so it will be somebody else's Canada's Wonderland soon. Basically I wanted to specify that the "Canada's" portion is not just me condescending to my American friends. I do that, just not right now.

Update: An opportunity to condescend** presents itself quickly. That's 43° Celsius.

** ...and I mean condescend in the nicest way of course.

Not just, huh? :-P

ROFL!!! You know my American brain goes right to Farenheit when you post numbers... and it took me several seconds to realize you were talking about Celsius.

God, someone switched me over to decaf this morning. I'm fucked. :-P

Jeez. Gatorade. Sunscreen. Wide-brimmed hats (take 'em off on the coasters, I guess). Please don't die.

(Thanks for the invite yesterday, but you're quite right about neck pain and rollercoasters. And neck pain and stupid-hot weather, too, heh.)

43? Looking at the weather report for Kitchener it says hight of 31 with thundershowers... Barrie is even cooler at a "mild" 28 with thundershowers.

I haven't been to C.W. in a long time, they must have a lot of new rides by now. I think the last time I was there, some of the coasters were closed because of thunder storms. ;-(

It's supposed to feel like 40C here today. I miss winter. No, seriously.

Quickdrying shorts and something waterproof for your wallets...that way you can alternate between fun water-stuff and rollercoasters (which will actually sound like a better idea tomorrow than you might think today...seriously, it's what we do every time we go..because it always ends up in the 40s)

It was 20° and raining here yesterday and people scowled at me when I said I enjoyed it. I'm sorry. I enjoy wearing pants and shoes to work. I enjoy not melting into a puddle every time I go outside. I enjoy not having to keep the fan in my office on full blast all day.

Of course, it's 31° right now and supposed to stay that way all weekend, so I fail to see why they had to scowl on me for one decent day. Sometimes I wish I lived in London.
