When I was 8 or 9, my parents took the family to Disney World. The rides were pretty cool, I got free candy, and people spontaneously burst into song.
I recently confessed to them that they could have saved several thousand dollars and just taken me to a car wash.
I don’t know what it is. I just get such glee from the magical car wash ride.

First, there’s the anticipation when you drive up to the exciting flappy things.

Then, everything goes dark!

Then you are attacked, by evil stringy wet monsters.

And their crazy whirling henchmen.

Rawr.

But you persevere, and eventually, you emerge triumphant. Thousands cheer.
…
Why is everyone not as excited about this as I am?

I'm with you, Leanne. It was always a thrill for me too as a kid to go to the car wash.
I like your photo narration. You forgot the exciting beginning, though, when the driver orders the type of car wash and the sign lights up telling you what kind of car wash you're getting. I always thought that was so cool.
Oh dear, should I admit that while it was thrilling as a child, it is STILL very entertaining…
My son gets so excited when we go through car washes. His narration sounds a lot like yours Leanne. So I guess we know what an outing with the spawn will consist of
We should so hang out.
Your son and I should so hang out.
