The heat... the heat!
I spent a part of the day at La Ronde with my boyfriend... (yeah, he chose the hottest day of the summer to date... not that he knew when he proposed it last week). There weren't so many people, so we could do most of the big rides in a few hours. Boomerang, Manitou, Monstre, Goliath (it's overrated), Vampire, Orbit.
Fact is, he is black, and I am the whitest of whites, and the heat started to affect me quite early. By 3h I could barely walk, I was feeling nauseous and dizzy (I still feel dizzy, but not so nauseous anymore). He was planning to leave around 4h in any case... so now I'm going back on the South Shore, skipping class (I couldn't go, I'm not feeling THAT well), and I'll sleep in the cool basement instead of my hot 3rd story in Montreal... and we have a pool.
