Not only do I have the world’s smallest bladder but I also drink a lot of water. The two don’t mix.

Here’s were Florida comes in…
Expedition Everest is the new ride at the Animal Kingdom. On our second ride, we got stuck climbing the main hill. We were stuck for about 10 minutes. Although I knew that I would need a trip to the bathroom shortly, I figured I would be OK because we had a FastPass and the ride isn’t very long. Wrong!!

As soon as we get stuck, the urge to go kicks in. After a minute or so, Caleb sees a few cast members run along the track with flashlights. My first thought…”Great, now we’re going to have to walk down the rollercoaster.” Of course, I had to go about eleventy billion times worse because I couldn’t. Panic sets in, bigtim. Fortunately, I was riding with Caleb on this trip and he was able to calm me down. It was a great view from the top of the mountain so I tried to distract myself by enjoying it a bit. Finally, the gears start turning and we’re pulled the short distance to the top of the mountain and finish up the ride. I even made it to the bathroom.

Unfortunately, the EE incident wasn’t the only one of the trip. On Tuesday, our last day, we were waiting for a bus to take us back to our room from breakfast. As I was trying to figure out where the nearest bathroom was our bus pulled up. About half way through the bus trip, I decide that I’ve really got to go. Turch! So I stand up thinking that switching positions will help. Not so much…why do you always have to go so much worse when you know there’s not a bathroom around? We finally make it back to the hotel and I make it safely to the bathroom.

For the rest of the trip, which consisted of waiting for a bus to the airport, a bus ride, waiting for the plane, and the plane ride, I have to pee about ever five minutes; once or twice, I had to go as soon as I sat down from going before. Believe it or not, I went ever time. Luckily, I took a little cat nap towards the end of the flight started to feel a bit better. Amazingly, I was fine on the car trip back to C-bus.

I’m not quite sure exactly what caused the flourish of peeing. It’s almost like I had a bladder infection but it didn’t hurt to go. I also wasn’t drinking an excessive amount of water (or any other beverage).
