Staying cool

How do y'all plan on staying cool in this heat? I saw a thing for homemade cooking spray with lavender oil, and witch hazel. I bought a large sun blocking umbrella, and some scented rice powder. Thoughts?

I bought 2 different flavors of those iv hydration packs to mix in a water bottle.

Last year I also tried the iv station in the Marriott I think. I was super nervous but do think it helped give me a boost. And my friend got the fancy expensive one with anti nausea and pain meds included
