Ahhh! I've been tagged! What do I do? What do I do!? I wasn't prepared for this at all!!!
(Hahaha, my plan worked perfectly, or didn't work at all, or something.)
AlexandNessa, my old tag was about going to Washington D.C and looking for a park guide, and it was based on a true story. A couple of months ago some friends and I decided to drive up to D.C. from South Florida in one day, just to see if we could.
Once up there, I was so zonked out by the drive and sleep deprivation that as it got later and later everything became surreal, to the extent of it all seeming like the Disney World version of the Nation's Capital to me. Anyway, at one point, as we were trying to get from one monument or federal building to another, I mentioned that they should have attraction guides, like theme parks do.
That just shows how growing up in a theme park culture really affects you. I was recently in San Diego, and took the ferry to Coronado. I then realized that while when I was younger I was impressed by how realistic the docks on Jaws look, I was now impressed by how much real docks look like the ones on Jaws.
