August with grandparents

[Donaldfan]

Have you spoken to the grandparents about it? They will know whether they will be ok with the heat.

They had concerns it would be too hot…… I explained everywhere possible is air conditioned…. The worst part is going from the park to the car as you feel like you are walking across a tarmac desert!

Gonna keep an eye on things as we would be travelling with a 6 year old and the thought of making her wear a mask around the park seems like a stress we could do without!
Hoping that will change soonish…

Go for it you’ll have a fantastic time.
Our middle son and daughter-in-law want to go back in a few years (maybe 4/5) and want us to go with them by which time I’ll be 66/67 and DH will be 75/76 and we’re definitely up for it

No problems for me. Stay hydrated and if you are going to stand still do it in the shade or aircon.

I took my Mum with us for her 70th birthday, so she was nearly 71 when we travelled in August for three weeks and she did just fine.

I've been 30-40 times in the summer months and I really don't like sticky heat. If I can deal with it by careful use of shade, air con, cold drinks and swimming pools then anyone can.

My mum struggles massively with the heat. She closed people mover when she nearly fainted just from heat silly thing! 😂 so we only ever do Easter with them (heading out over feb half term next month hopefully!)

This is a good point but in my case my parents (particularly mum)just people please and then we all pay the price as they won’t even say when they feel poorly etc
