We went to Disneyland on Saturday with my parents. While we were down there we met up with my Uncle Jim and my Aunt Trudy who were already spending a few days down there. We had a great time. They completely re-did the Haunted Mansion and made it into a "Nighmare Before Christmas" ride....sweet! I was expecting a few decorations here or there, but seriously, the whole ride was completely different and it was like going on it for the first time. If you get the chance to go to Disneyland sometime between now and Christmas, don't forget to go on that ride.
As we were leaving the park my mom and Katie decided to go on the rocketships before we left...you know, the little rocketships that go around and around, and you can adjust the elevation. Bear in mind that this is a children's ride...it is designed to hold 2, maybe 3, small to medium sized chidren. Two full grown adults is a completely different story. My mom was the first to sit down, and lo and behold, there was no room for Katie to sit. I could see there was no room from where I was standing outside the ride and I just assumed they would give up and give some eager waiting youngsters a chance. Well, my mom never willing to admit defeat, yells at Katie "Get in here!" and Katie not wanting to upset her future mother-in-law just kind of climbs up and plops down on my mom's lap. This whole time both of them, and all four of us on the outside, are laughing non-stop. Well, they start squirming around and within a few seconds both of them have something sorta resembling their own seat. Well, everything would have been fine....but then there is the problem with the seat belt. The Disney employee comes around and asks them where their seat belt is. They respond that they have no idea. They weren't kidding. Turns out they were both sitting on the seatbelt, and even when they got it out from under both of them (which is quite a feat when you consider that they were practically sitting on each other in this confined space) it doesn't fit around them. Well, to make a long story short, after 5 minutes of 2 frustrated Disney employees, 5 hysterically laughing people, one taunting uncle, and a whole ride full of impatient children, they got to enjoy the ride for about a minute in which the only thing anyone could hear was the two of them laughing as they went around and around and around. Good times!
