Last night I had a dream that I was going to my favorite water park, with lots of tubes all over the place for the rides. At first there were people around, but they were almost all of one ethnic group. I thought that was slightly odd, but I paid my entry fee and started in, but then realized there were new apartments over the entry fee pay booth, new since I was last there, only they were not new. They were old and run down.
Somehow we get to the second part of the dream, where the park is almost empty, and I haven't gone in yet, and there's a storm coming. I'm now aware that the park has changed hands, and is now in the hands of a group of very poor people of this ethnic group from before, but they are not paying good attention to it and it is rapidly decaying from neglect. I see one of them peering at me from one of the apartments (really just a room) above the room. I go into the park, and it's really getting dark with the storm clouds, but I'm not worried about that. I'm worried about the condition of the rides. They really need to be maintained and upgraded!
In the next part of the dream, I am now back out at the entry booth, and the apartments are apparently empty. The booth is too. Nobody else is around. It's very dark, like you would see during a very dark storm. No rain, but some ominous wind. I climb the stairs to the apartment, and see inside that it's a dilapidated old trailer (as in trailer park/mobile home) that has been lifted up to this level on top of the entry way. There is nobody inside but some mice and rats, and the interior is trashed. An old sofa sits near the entry way, stained and eaten through by rats, and one is hiding in it. The floor is covered with old refuse and remnants of a home. It looks like a lot of the old abandoned buildings I have been in.
Then in the next part of the dream, I have taken ownership of the park, and it's starting to look better. Work and maintenance and repairs are being performed, and it looks like it has just rained and there is that odd glow in the air that you sometimes see just before or after a storm. The air is still dark, but you can see that more light is coming in and the storm is moving away.
At this point the dream changes to one of me concerning being stranded and having to use emergency transport. My car has died, and I have an electric unicycle in the trunk... or a hoverboard... something like that. And I'm trying to get a friend to come with me, and he's stalling for some reason. I don't remember this part of the dream well enough to really understand it.
But the first part, concerning the water park, seems to be indicative of the "remodeling and renovation" going on inside me right now. Good that the storm is passed.
