West Coast Bash 2010
April 5, 2010
While we were enjoying the afternoon, we caught the shortest theme park parade I've ever seen:
The chain's, um, unique, mascot, Mr. Six, led the way. (This guy still creeps me out, but whatever.)
And then there was this float. And that was it. I guess the days of freely roving, guest-interacting costumed characters are really over.
But really, the park is just looking better and better all the time. I paid more attention to some of the details, like this "High Sierra Territory" landscaping. I like how the pup is all, "This is my 'curious' look" and mom is all aggro and "Yellowjackets got NOTHING on me, tourist!"
ACTION SHOT!!! I finally got my Canyon Blaster credit, after all these years, with Caroline Godsey. Girl's on her way to being a major coaster fan.
Our add-on dinner plan at the Mooseburger Lodge was well worth the upcharge, and not just for the food.
After dinner, this guy comes up to our table and says he's going to make some balloon animals for us. Okay, pops, do your thing. I was prepared to humor the dude, and wait until he went away.
Ladies and Gentlemen, meet The Reverend Christopher Cory, Ph.D. (No kidding, that's what's on his business card.) This fellow is the effing Picasso of balloon artists. He made a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle for Darrell:
And then made a mermaid for Deanna:
Cool, right?
