  I Hate Talking: Welcome to episode 100 of I Hate Talking.
• 0:32
  I Hate Talking: Hi everyone.
• 0:33
  I Hate Talking: So we got a few suggestions on our 100th episode.
• 0:38
  I Hate Talking: So, but I guess you have our word or phrase of the episode from one of those things.
• 0:43
  I Hate Talking: Yes.
• 0:45
  I Hate Talking: All right, so I have the word, or it's more of a phrase, and I want you to guess what it is.
• 0:50
  I Hate Talking: Tempus Fuji.
• 0:53
  I Hate Talking: Tempest, Fujit, Fujit, Fujit, yes, Tempest Fujit, Tempest Fujit.
• 1:02
  I Hate Talking: No, I have no idea.
• 1:04
  I Hate Talking: Is this another one of your phrases that it's not English?
• 1:08
  I Hate Talking: It is not English.
• 1:09
  I Hate Talking: It's true.
• 1:10
  I Hate Talking: It's Latin.
• 1:11
  I Hate Talking: Like your que sera sera.
• 1:13
  I Hate Talking: Yes, I like apparently like.
• 1:16
  I Hate Talking: Phrases or words that are not English, I suppose.
• 1:20
  I Hate Talking: I've never heard it and I have no idea what it means.
• 1:24
  I Hate Talking: All right, it's from the Latin translated, it means time flies, or literally it means time flies.
• 1:31
  I Hate Talking: Mm, time flies.
• 1:33
  I Hate Talking: That would be interesting if you said that to somebody.
• 1:37
  I Hate Talking: And please Yeah, like, If somebody says it's been a Long time since I've seen you, or some other phrase that indicates some passage of time and you just responded with, time flies.
• 1:51
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, I think I, time flies.
• 1:54
  I Hate Talking: I just like nod, yep, of course, time flies, I would definitely do a double take for a second.
• 2:00
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, it's actually probably a more apt description of time.
• 2:04
  I Hate Talking: Fleas instead of flies, I think so.
• 2:07
  I Hate Talking: What's the difference?
• 2:08
  I Hate Talking: Well, now you can teach me what's the difference between fleas and flies.
• 2:12
  I Hate Talking: Well, flies is not necessarily impart any particular Nuance in my opinion, it's sort of Neutral, it's not positive, it's not negative.
• 2:24
  I Hate Talking: Time flies.
• 2:26
  I Hate Talking: It just is a statement of fact.
• 2:29
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, it goes quickly like flies like you're when you fly in the airplane, it's really fast.
• 2:34
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 2:35
  I Hate Talking: That's what I've always thought, yes.
• 2:37
  I Hate Talking: But I'd still say it's not really.
• 2:39
  I Hate Talking: Particularly positive or negative.
• 2:42
  I Hate Talking: Time flies sounds more negative to me, like, It's gone, it's not coming back.
• 2:48
  I Hate Talking: It has departed and never to be seen again.
• 2:51
  I Hate Talking: But do you think tempest Fugit or time flies is a negative connotation word, like a negative phrase?
• 2:59
  I Hate Talking: Time flies.
• 3:00
  I Hate Talking: That's, no, I'm saying that it's neither positive nor negative.
• 3:04
  I Hate Talking: -- But -- do you think the idea of it's negative?
• 3:06
  I Hate Talking: No, because I think it's used in such a flippant manner when I hear the phrase time flies.
• 3:11
  I Hate Talking: OK, so I'm gonna backtrack, cause I think we're not on the same track.
• 3:15
  I Hate Talking: I'm saying when you think about like the past, is that a negative thing to be like, oh, it's gone now, and that's like a negative?
• 3:22
  I Hate Talking: No, not particularly.
• 3:25
  I Hate Talking: OK.
• 3:25
  I Hate Talking: Is it a negative for you?
• 3:27
  I Hate Talking: No, I think sometimes, um, one of the reasons I was thinking about this was something popped up in my memories the other day, and our kids were so little, it was just like really, really sweet time in our family's life.
• 3:42
  I Hate Talking: And it made me almost sad cause I missed it, like they were so little and we had such a good thing going and.
• 3:49
  I Hate Talking: Uh, yeah, I was sort of sad that.
• 3:52
  I Hate Talking: It was gone.
• 3:54
  I Hate Talking: But typically, I don't feel that way.
• 3:57
  I Hate Talking: So you're saying we don't have a good thing going now?
• 4:00
  I Hate Talking: We do, and maybe in.
• 4:04
  I Hate Talking: 8 years, I'll look back and be like, oh, that was a really good time.
• 4:08
  I Hate Talking: But at that time, I knew it was a really special sweet time.
• 4:13
  I Hate Talking: I, I knew it, and I felt it, and I still feel that way.
• 4:18
  I Hate Talking: If I could go back in time, I'd go back to that time, because it was a really, really sweet time.
• 4:23
  I Hate Talking: Interesting.
• 4:25
  I Hate Talking: You don't think about it, you wouldn't go back to 8 years ago.
• 4:29
  I Hate Talking: No, I don't think so.
• 4:32
  I Hate Talking: I don't particularly.
• 4:34
  I Hate Talking: I think that that is even possible.
• 4:37
  I Hate Talking: So therefore, perhaps I don't entertain that thought -- to begin -- with.
• 4:41
  I Hate Talking: But nonetheless, even if we could, I don't think I would because the future is where we are headed.
• 4:49
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, and it's a good time.
• 4:50
  I Hate Talking: I'm not trying to be negative right now.
• 4:51
  I Hate Talking: It's a good time right now, but my heart hurts for those moments.
• 4:56
  I Hate Talking: That was a time in our life where it was like every night we did dance parties with our kids in the living room.
• 5:02
  I Hate Talking: Just for like a whole 3 hour to 45 minutes every night we danced.
• 5:07
  I Hate Talking: And it was just so much fun.
• 5:10
  I Hate Talking: And everything we did was so funny to them.
• 5:13
  I Hate Talking: And uh, It just seemed easier, but I guess maybe at the time it didn't feel easier, maybe I forget.
• 5:22
  I Hate Talking: That is probably something that is true for Reminiscing about past experiences is that you are going to typically remember the good times and not the bad times, or even if you do remember times in general, you're going to remember the particular highlights and not the difficulties.
• 5:41
  I Hate Talking: Right.
• 5:42
  I Hate Talking: And so going, I mean, we've talked about that before, nostalgia, but going back to this word about time flies or time flies, I thought it was appropriate for our 100th episode, because the time has gone by super fast, I think.
• 5:56
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 5:57
  I Hate Talking: I wonder if our listeners think the same.
• 5:59
  I Hate Talking: It's been almost 2 years, cause we've done an episode every week, and in the beginning, we did a couple extra.
• 6:06
  I Hate Talking: That's why it's a little sooner than 2 years.
• 6:09
  I Hate Talking: That's true, we have some bonus episodes in there sprinkled in.
• 6:13
  I Hate Talking: Now, it is interesting to note when you search for time flies, Google tries to autocorrect it to time flies.
• 6:21
  I Hate Talking: But when you do search for time flies, It brings up that particular Latin phrase tempus fugit, and it is a Idiom in Latin that means time passes very quickly and irrevocably.
• 6:37
  I Hate Talking: So, yes, see, I think that does seem to be more of the emphasis with time flies versus then time flies.
• 6:45
  I Hate Talking: It's because it is.
• 6:47
  I Hate Talking: The passing of time that is irrevocable.
• 6:52
  I Hate Talking: But that's not negative, right?
• 6:54
  I Hate Talking: Irrevocable just means you can't go back.
• 6:56
  I Hate Talking: When it's set, it's set.
• 6:58
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, I suppose so.
• 7:00
  I Hate Talking: But you think of irrevocable as negative.
• 7:03
  I Hate Talking: I think I think of time fleeing and the nature of the irrevocability of it, that it's more and.
• 7:13
  I Hate Talking: It's like the way that it is.
• 7:16
  I Hate Talking: It has been.
• 7:16
  I Hate Talking: Set, and there's no going back.
• 7:20
  I Hate Talking: Mhm.
• 7:21
  I Hate Talking: I mean, which is true.
• 7:22
  I Hate Talking: I wonder how old our kids have to be before we show them.
• 7:28
  I Hate Talking: What's the movie?
• 7:30
  I Hate Talking: Back to the Future.
• 7:32
  I Hate Talking: Did I guess it?
• 7:34
  I Hate Talking: Oh wow, I was not expecting that.
• 7:36
  I Hate Talking: I was just saying that as a joke.
• 7:38
  I Hate Talking: Oh no, I don't think they'd like it right now.
• 7:41
  I Hate Talking: I think they'd be bored pretty quickly through it.
• 7:43
  I Hate Talking: Uh, I wonder how age appropriate it is.
• 7:47
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, I need a few more years for the younger ones at least.
• 7:51
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, aside from that, like, I think you're right.
• 7:54
  I Hate Talking: Other than having A time traveling device, it is set.
• 8:01
  I Hate Talking: I mean, every step you take, right?
• 8:04
  I Hate Talking: Like, you walk out of the room, OK, you can go back in the room, but not.
• 8:10
  I Hate Talking: At the same moment, at the same time.
• 8:14
  I Hate Talking: Some things you can redo, but you're always redoing it.
• 8:18
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 8:20
  I Hate Talking: And maybe that's the difference between flies and fleas in my mind is flies is more a description of the passage of time that it goes quickly, whereas Fleeing is it's gone, not necessarily to be recovered.
• 8:35
  I Hate Talking: So it's not necessarily a description of the speed at which it passes.
• 8:40
  I Hate Talking: But the fact that it passes, never to be recovered again.
• 8:44
  I Hate Talking: OK, I can picture that, yeah, cause flying, it's like more linear, like you're going straight forward.
• 8:51
  I Hate Talking: But fleeing, it's almost like you're looking back like, uh oh, I can't get back there, keep running.
• 8:56
  I Hate Talking: Correct, yes, take a picture of that.
• 8:59
  I Hate Talking: So I think, um, again, it's super appropriate for our 100th episode, cause this has gone by so fast, but also we spent the week and On a vacation.
• 9:12
  I Hate Talking: With our family and it shocked me how.
• 9:17
  I Hate Talking: Grown up our kids are now.
• 9:20
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 9:21
  I Hate Talking: We returned to Great Wolf Lodge, but it was a different Great Wolf Lodge, and we did not do the Magic Quest.
• 9:27
  I Hate Talking: Thank goodness.
• 9:28
  I Hate Talking: No, we didn't.
• 9:29
  I Hate Talking: They wanted to bring their wands with them just in case, and we did forget them.
• 9:34
  I Hate Talking: It was an accident.
• 9:35
  I Hate Talking: But also, I think you are relieved, right?
• 9:38
  I Hate Talking: I think I was relieved, yes, because it, I don't think it would have worked, because maybe like it would have done like the very first round of things where like things light up, but and actually doing the quest and moving through the levels and things like, I'm sure we would have had to pay for that.
• 9:55
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, I think so.
• 9:56
  I Hate Talking: So we went, and this was a really cool, again, once again, a flash deal, I love my sales.
• 10:05
  I Hate Talking: You were, as we talked about before, we moved.
• 10:08
  I Hate Talking: And you moved before us for your job, and me and the kids followed a little while later, a couple weeks later.
• 10:16
  I Hate Talking: And so this was a time that you were gone, and I saw this, so it was in the general area we're moving to.
• 10:23
  I Hate Talking: And It was a great, like 12 hour flash sale.
• 10:28
  I Hate Talking: And I couldn't get a hold of you, like, I knew you were sleeping already with the time change and yada yada.
• 10:34
  I Hate Talking: So I just booked it, like, our youngest birthday.
• 10:40
  I Hate Talking: Our youngest one's birthday.
• 10:42
  I Hate Talking: Was this week, so I was like, this would be a great birthday gift for him, since we won't have friends yet or a consistent schedule at our new home.
• 10:53
  I Hate Talking: Let's go to Great Wolf Lodge.
• 10:56
  I Hate Talking: So we tried this new one, and what do you think?
• 10:59
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, it was good.
• 11:01
  I Hate Talking: I mean, even in the short time frame of our previous visit, which was probably less than 1 year or so, yeah, just 6 months.
• 11:09
  I Hate Talking: It was back in October.
• 11:11
  I Hate Talking: Yes, the kids were more mature and were able to do more of the things.
• 11:17
  I Hate Talking: Now the Great Wolf Lodge was different, so that may have played a part.
• 11:22
  I Hate Talking: And also perhaps their familiarity with Great Wolf Lodge in general allowed them to have a little bit more of freedom and Autonomy when they were visiting there, but yes, it was.
• 11:35
  I Hate Talking: Again, sort of an odd experience as a parent that your kids are going off and doing things on their own with each other and not needing your direct supervision the entire time.
• 11:47
  I Hate Talking: Do you think that this lazy river was slower than the other one, or was our youngest a better swimmer?
• 11:53
  I Hate Talking: Cause last time, I did get a little anxious in the lazy river, if he didn't have a floaty thing, because he liked to just swim without a float.
• 12:06
  I Hate Talking: And let the water push him, but it kept pulling him under last time, and then so I refused to let him do that.
• 12:13
  I Hate Talking: Or this time he could do it and it didn't pull him under.
• 12:16
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, well, I think out of all of them, he's probably the one that has grown in height the most, so that could be something to do with it.
• 12:25
  I Hate Talking: And then I do think it was slower.
• 12:26
  I Hate Talking: It was a different layout completely.
• 12:28
  I Hate Talking: Actually, some of the ending of the slide sort of merged in with the lazy river, which was different.
• 12:35
  I Hate Talking: It was cool, but I think that actually detracted from the flow and the speed at which the lazy river.
• 12:42
  I Hate Talking: Circulated.
• 12:43
  I Hate Talking: OK, I see that.
• 12:44
  I Hate Talking: It was nice because and it's smart because some of the rides you have to take a float up with you, so it makes sense that they're with the lazy river because they're all the same.
• 12:55
  I Hate Talking: So if you get off the slide, you can just continue on the lazy river or get out and walk it up to the slides.
• 13:03
  I Hate Talking: So I did, I mean, it made sense, but I agree that I could see how it would slow down the flow.
• 13:09
  I Hate Talking: Which was a completely different design than the previous Lazy River because they had separate tubes for each thing where the Lazy River tubes were clear.
• 13:19
  I Hate Talking: And these were not right, because they were shared with the slides.
• 13:23
  I Hate Talking: Yeah.
• 13:23
  I Hate Talking: And um it just made me think, cause I had already had that moment earlier this week of uh seeing this.
• 13:32
  I Hate Talking: Photos from 8 years ago, family vacation.
• 13:36
  I Hate Talking: And seeing how little our kids were and just how carefree it seemed, which I know it wasn't cause we had like nap time scheduled and yada yada, right?
• 13:46
  I Hate Talking: It was not carefree cause we'd wake up, go to breakfast, swim, come back and nap, then get up and swim more, and then come back and sleep.
• 13:55
  I Hate Talking: Like it was very scheduled.
• 13:57
  I Hate Talking: So calling it carefree isn't true.
• 14:00
  I Hate Talking: But when I see the photos and how sweet and innocent they were, just like us sitting there, having them climb on us and swim with us.
• 14:09
  I Hate Talking: And then reflecting on that, watching my kids race down the slides together, as I just sit there, it's like, wow, this is different.
• 14:20
  I Hate Talking: And it went so quick.
• 14:22
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 14:24
  I Hate Talking: Plus we didn't have to worry about allergens or food sensitivities.
• 14:29
  I Hate Talking: Yes, that was a big part of our past, which thank goodness is over.
• 14:33
  I Hate Talking: Our kids outgrew it, but that was a massive part of the first couple of years of parenting for us.
• 14:40
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 14:41
  I Hate Talking: Maybe we'll talk about that sometime and How difficult that was.
• 14:47
  I Hate Talking: Maybe so.
• 14:48
  I Hate Talking: You, a listener, can let us know if you'd like to hear about milk sensitivities.
• 14:52
  I Hate Talking: So this particular Great Wolf Lodge did have the lazy river and it did have various slides that used inner tubes that could be either single riders or double riders.
• 15:05
  I Hate Talking: And then it did seem to have relatively similar ones that were like the large inner tube that a group would do anywhere from 234 or 5 riders in these particular ones.
• 15:17
  I Hate Talking: And those were some of the similarities.
• 15:21
  I Hate Talking: And you did even the one that was the 4 rider tube that had a very large drop in it.
• 15:28
  I Hate Talking: I did more last time, I think I even said it on the pod, I only did one.
• 15:33
  I Hate Talking: I've developed such a fear of heights in the last decade.
• 15:36
  I Hate Talking: I don't know if it's becoming a mom, or just getting older or what it is, but I never was a a thrill seeker.
• 15:45
  I Hate Talking: But I was never scared to do things also.
• 15:49
  I Hate Talking: I would ride the roller coasters, never super excited about it, but never really scared either.
• 15:56
  I Hate Talking: In the last decade, that's changed.
• 15:59
  I Hate Talking: And the last time I only rode one.
• 16:02
  I Hate Talking: This time I told each kid they could choose one and I'd ride with them.
• 16:06
  I Hate Talking: And y'all chose the scariest one at first.
• 16:11
  I Hate Talking: And this was a moment I want to remember forever.
• 16:14
  I Hate Talking: My heart was literally beating out of my chest.
• 16:18
  I Hate Talking: I was so scared walking up the steps, cause I knew this was a scary one.
• 16:22
  I Hate Talking: I didn't want to do it.
• 16:24
  I Hate Talking: And I told one of my kids like, oh, feel my heart is beating so fast, and he put his hand on my chest and the one on his.
• 16:32
  I Hate Talking: He's like, it's OK, I'll calm you down, and he just stood there with his hand on my chest and his chest.
• 16:39
  I Hate Talking: And like just transferring his calmness, I guess to me, it was really sweet.
• 16:46
  I Hate Talking: But it was intense, and then it was OK.
• 16:49
  I Hate Talking: And then after that I realized, OK, I can do this, it's not as bad as I thought, and I went on quite a few.
• 16:55
  I Hate Talking: I would have gone on more, but those stairs are pretty gnarly.
• 16:59
  I Hate Talking: It was a lot of stairs.
• 17:00
  I Hate Talking: That is true.
• 17:01
  I Hate Talking: If there was an elevator, I would have rode it a lot more.
• 17:04
  I Hate Talking: Yes, and then the Slides, they do not use any inner tubes were far less extreme, so they did not have the ones with like the near vertical drops or the trapdoor one that drops you into the slide.
• 17:21
  I Hate Talking: They did have some slides that were probably a little bit more catered to younger kids, uh, but adults could do them as well, but they were far less extreme.
• 17:31
  I Hate Talking: But they did have some additional things that was different.
• 17:35
  I Hate Talking: And then the wave pool was the same.
• 17:37
  I Hate Talking: I completely forgot the wave pool, but they did have a wave pool.
• 17:40
  I Hate Talking: But one of the things that was different was they had a flow rider, I think was the brand name, where you have like a boogie board and it shoots streams of water or this basically one large stream of water.
• 17:56
  I Hate Talking: At like a 45 degree angle ramp, and then you sort of ride on that particular ramp with the boogie board.
• 18:03
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, so I didn't do it.
• 18:05
  I Hate Talking: I would feel like my swimsuit was not appropriate.
• 18:08
  I Hate Talking: I previously saw other moms or women do it and struggle, so I didn't try it.
• 18:15
  I Hate Talking: Had I changed my swimsuit, I would have, but you did it.
• 18:19
  I Hate Talking: How many times did you do it?
• 18:20
  I Hate Talking: I saw 2 Yeah, at least 4 or 5 times, I think.
• 18:26
  I Hate Talking: Not every time that the kids did it, but nearly every time.
• 18:28
  I Hate Talking: Our one kid got really good at it.
• 18:31
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, he was doing very good by the end of it.
• 18:33
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, so he's gonna be a little surfer dude.
• 18:35
  I Hate Talking: He's got the longer hair and everything, so it works well.
• 18:39
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 18:39
  I Hate Talking: And I was surprised like, we did it once and then they wanted to keep doing it.
• 18:43
  I Hate Talking: So, because you, I mean, sometimes people wipe out on that thing and it's intense.
• 18:50
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, I don't think it's like super dangerous, but you could hurt yourself if you are wiping out and crashing, and there were some crashes that were quite Exciting to watch, I suppose, but they did not get hurt.
• 19:06
  I Hate Talking: Did you ever get hurt on it?
• 19:08
  I Hate Talking: I think on one of them, I might have bruised my shin a little bit as I was like jumping into the angled slope, but other than that, it was non-issue.
• 19:19
  I Hate Talking: OK.
• 19:20
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, I saw two of yours, like I said, and uh yeah, you did well, do well.
• 19:25
  I Hate Talking: So you bruised your shin.
• 19:26
  I Hate Talking: I think we did get more injuries this time.
• 19:29
  I Hate Talking: I injured my back lifting cause we spent the night, and there was a pullout couch, and I was pulling it out and tweaked my back.
• 19:38
  I Hate Talking: And that wasn't fun last night, but it's OK.
• 19:42
  I Hate Talking: It's just really sore now.
• 19:44
  I Hate Talking: And then one of our kids got his hand.
• 19:48
  I Hate Talking: Banged between the floatation device and the steps getting off a slide.
• 19:55
  I Hate Talking: And he got a pretty big cut.
• 19:58
  I Hate Talking: I mean, they sent over the, uh, you know, the med team, and they cleaned it up really well.
• 20:03
  I Hate Talking: It's not like it needed stitches or anything, but it did need a good cleaning and bandage.
• 20:09
  I Hate Talking: And he was, I was proud of him because it hurt, and he was very brave and calm through the whole process.
• 20:16
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 20:18
  I Hate Talking: And they were very quick to respond.
• 20:20
  I Hate Talking: They noticed quickly and so kudos to them for being very attentive and prepared.
• 20:25
  I Hate Talking: That's true.
• 20:26
  I Hate Talking: I mean, that is one thing at both Great Wolf Lodge locations that was apparent is that their lifeguard staff and medical response team are very well trained with various methodology to ensure that everybody is safe and that there's no particular issues and that if there are any minor injuries that those are attended to quickly.
• 20:47
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, I would say I would fully agree that I think Great Wolf Lodge, Uganda 2 now.
• 20:55
  I Hate Talking: And I would say confidently that their lifeguards do a really good job.
• 21:00
  I Hate Talking: I mean, I, that was my job for a while, was monitoring lifeguards and training them and teach uh making sure they're doing their job.
• 21:09
  I Hate Talking: And so I do pay attention to that now.
• 21:12
  I Hate Talking: And they do a very excellent job.
• 21:15
  I Hate Talking: They take their training serious, as I'd watch uh them watch people, and they're not just checking out or just walking around.
• 21:26
  I Hate Talking: That's true, even when there is a Mom, that is in the shallow 2-foot water that they will go check on her.
• 21:37
  I Hate Talking: They will, yeah, I was, OK, I'll tell real quick this story.
• 21:40
  I Hate Talking: I was telling Adam I was there watching this happen, that there was a mom, and she was with her husband and her parents or, you know, the grandparents and a baby, and so they kept, the mom kept dunking under the water to, and then popping up, right, to surprise the baby, and the baby would be surprised.
• 22:00
  I Hate Talking: So, But the way she was doing it, she would duck under and lift her hands, and it did look like the classic.
• 22:06
  I Hate Talking: Drowning position again, she's, it's, yeah, like 3 ft 4, not even 4 ft of water.
• 22:13
  I Hate Talking: She had 3 adults around her.
• 22:15
  I Hate Talking: The concept of her drowning is kind of silly, but he called it, jumped in, and rescued her, and then they were so rude to him.
• 22:26
  I Hate Talking: And like, obviously we're just playing yadda yada, but.
• 22:30
  I Hate Talking: It showed every sign of a drowning person.
• 22:34
  I Hate Talking: And then they went right back to doing the game again, and I felt so bad for that lifeguard.
• 22:39
  I Hate Talking: The other lifeguards came over, he called it, tons of people came running over while he went and rescued her.
• 22:45
  I Hate Talking: They gave him a towel, as he went back to his post, and like patted him on the back and stuff, and you could just see his heart, like him breathing heavy.
• 22:54
  I Hate Talking: It was serious for him, he was rescuing her.
• 22:57
  I Hate Talking: And good for him, and I felt so bad that like.
• 23:01
  I Hate Talking: They were so rude to him, because they should have at least been thankful, like, thank you for paying attention.
• 23:07
  I Hate Talking: Versus, you know, what they said about like, obviously we're here, she's not drowning.
• 23:14
  I Hate Talking: So anyways, good for him, and I hope he gets kudos, or we should go online and give him.
• 23:21
  I Hate Talking: I think on there, can't you give people kudos or something like that, like congratulations.
• 23:26
  I Hate Talking: I think so.
• 23:28
  I Hate Talking: I don't know if you have their name or whatever, but yeah, I should have, but.
• 23:33
  I Hate Talking: I didn't.
• 23:34
  I Hate Talking: Anyways, I do feel confident in the Great Wolf Lodge, not enough to be like, I'm gonna leave my kids and walk away.
• 23:40
  I Hate Talking: Obviously that's not their responsibility like that, but I would say I feel confident in their lifeguards.
• 23:47
  I Hate Talking: That's true, so.
• 23:48
  I Hate Talking: Maybe we'll, we'll go to another great wolf lodge in the future.
• 23:53
  I Hate Talking: We have 2 down and I think what, 11 more to go or something when you looked at the numbers.
• 23:58
  I Hate Talking: Something like that.
• 23:59
  I Hate Talking: We're gonna check.
• 24:01
  I Hate Talking: There are 23 great wolf lodges.
• 24:06
  I Hate Talking: So in the -- continental -- US -- and Canada and -- Canada, the one in Ontario, Canada, so 22 in the US, -- but -- Niagara, Niagara Falls, and I've always wanted to go there.
• 24:18
  I Hate Talking: On the Canadian side, yes, that is true.
• 24:23
  I Hate Talking: Well, that's the part you want to see anyways, right?
• 24:25
  I Hate Talking: Don't people say that Niagara Falls is better on Canada's side unless you go during COVID because then you could only allow two people on the boat at a time.
• 24:32
  I Hate Talking: We didn't live too far from there relatively at one point in our lives.
• 24:39
  I Hate Talking: We always talked about government and never did.
• 24:41
  I Hate Talking: We should have.
• 24:42
  I Hate Talking: And we should one day.
• 24:45
  I Hate Talking: Well, -- maybe -- we and I've been, yes, at least twice.
• 24:50
  I Hate Talking: Is it worth it?
• 24:51
  I Hate Talking: Yeah, it would be worth it to.
• 24:53
  I Hate Talking: It'd be like the Grand Canyon.
• 24:55
  I Hate Talking: Like, I think people really talk up the Grand Canyon, and it is really cool, and it's worth seeing once.
• 25:01
  I Hate Talking: And after that, maybe, maybe not so much.
• 25:04
  I Hate Talking: So, I sort of feel the same as Niagara, that yes, it's a very Interesting and unique thing to go visit, but if you visit it once, it's Not necessarily something that you need to revisit.
• 25:18
  I Hate Talking: I actually think that the CN Tower is more of an attraction than Niagara Falls.
• 25:24
  I Hate Talking: Well, it used to be the tallest building in the world.
• 25:28
  I Hate Talking: Decades ago.
• 25:30
  I Hate Talking: It's not even close anymore.
• 25:32
  I Hate Talking: No, it's in the Right there on the Canadian side of Niagara Falls.
• 25:38
  I Hate Talking: Never heard of it.
• 25:40
  I Hate Talking: Have you gone tied it, like gone all up?
• 25:44
  I Hate Talking: Yes, I think I've been inside it.
• 25:48
  I Hate Talking: I don't think I've been to like the very top, top of it because that you have to like pay like super amount of money to go up to, but you can go to like the observation deck that is significantly up on the top.
• 26:00
  I Hate Talking: Is it at the very top.
• 26:01
  I Hate Talking: Is it taller than the Empire State Building?
• 26:04
  I Hate Talking: Yes.
• 26:04
  I Hate Talking: What about in Chicago, like taller than that.
• 26:08
  I Hate Talking: -- The -- Sears Tower, now renamed to something else.
• 26:11
  I Hate Talking: Yes, taller than that.
• 26:13
  I Hate Talking: Because again, we talked about my fear of heights when we were in Chicago over summer, we talked about doing all that and I was like, I can't, I can't do it.
• 26:19
  I Hate Talking: I think I'm not that scared if it's me, but with my kids, I get so scared.
• 26:25
  I Hate Talking: Interesting.
• 26:26
