We went for our very first trip August 22 - 29th, 2000.
We had a really cool and wet summer here. It was refreshing to have some hot weather.
I burn... so I always have sun screen on. I was putting it on every hour and my shoulders still burnt. With the heat I didn't want to wear a shirt with sleeves. I remember it well.
My daughter was 5 at the time and ran in every fountain their was, I have so many photos of these. We never were in the parks in the afternoon, instead taking that time to swim at our resort and rest, then we would head out again around dinner time.
We toured at our leisure, instead of running. We bought those fans with spray bottles.
Though it was hot, I don't remember saying it's too hot to be here. I do remember that all my dd wanted to do was swim, and at one point I wondered why we spent so much money on this trip for her to swim.
I have fond memories of that time. We prefer to go in the winter months now, but at that time of the year swimming is not as nice. We haven't been to the water parks since 2000, which is sad as I loved them.
