Castle Park

My parents took Elena to Castle park, a nearby smallish amusement park, while Erich and I were busy singing at a wedding. She LOVED it. She was very enthusiastic about the rides, though she preferred the physically exciting ones to the psychologically exciting ones. My parents mistakenly took her on a dark "shoot the bad people" ride that was not a hit. My mother tried her best to reassure her that it was all pretend and that the bad people weren't going to hurt them. Elena's response at the end was "If they weren't going to hurt us, why were we shooting at them?" Good girl.
