Europapark! #2

So, I wasn't actually done but that's alright. In Europapark I thought a lot about the Disneyland trip with me and Cassie. It was so great. And, I thought about how Europapark was kind of a rip-off of it and it just didn't compare. But, it was still fun. There was Pirates of Guantanamo (sp?) Bay. So much like Pirates of the Carribean, but not as fantastic. There was an indoor one in a dome, Posideon like blah blah and such. It was neat because hey had most of the European countries and they're own town. No Vatican City, Liechtenstien or Portugal, I think. Surprisingly, however, they had Africa (I'm not sure Europe has yet to realize that Africa is its own continent...and definitely three times its size) and Dinosaurs and Halloween. Now, dinosaurs and Africa, okay, but Halloween?! It was so mean. I'm already suffering enough, thank you. So stop dangling Halloween in my face. I'm not sure if you know this but, Halloween doesn't really exist in Europe. That's right. They don't do Halloween. they may fool you with their abundent supply of pumpkins but I assure you, they don't.

One of my favorite rides was this 4D cinema. I've been to those, but in this one the story was...actually great. There was no talking. We were a cat. the cat made its way into an abandoned spooky mansion (Halloween-themed). We follow a rat, which leads us to a dead dog that follows us. We escape into this room with seeingly-friendly toys that actually try to kill us. After many close encounters with death, we are captured (and escape) by a vine who seeks to eat our flesh. Then we escape and meet a hungry snake, and spiders before getting outside. Once outside there's a doll with a lantern that beckons us toward a grave and trys to push us in. There are skeletons and the ghost dog who jumps at us. Then, finally, we look into a puddle and what to we see? Our cat-ghost reflection. It was wonderful. Another great 4D part I didn't experience in the other cinemas, is that when it was raining, there were actually drops on our head.

All in all, a great day. Today I'm going to a lonely walk in the forest. I think that's all.

Oh, and I have to make a stupid decision. Shoes shoes shoes. Yes. Do I want to be quirky and unique with awesome forest dwelling shoes? Or cute and cold with sparkly purple flats? Or maybe stylish and sophisticated with oxford shoes. Any help on this matter would be much appreciated. Actually, and ASAP help would be because I have to make up my mind by tomorrow. AKA mommy help me!
