One of Genius Golfer's favorite rides at Disneyland is the Astro Balsters. It is a game/ride. And he is a gamer at heart. So this is a natural fit. I, on the other hand am not a gamer. I play games with the kids usually so I am the loser and they don't get bent out of shape if they lose. I figure it is my place as the mom. It rates right up there with eating the least warm food for dinner, as they all seem to think of "just one more thing" as I'm trying to sit down and eat with them. But that is another blog post.
Amazingly enough, and after several rides, I had a lifetime personal best on Astro Blasters. You can see the incredibly concentration I had, based on the photo. You might also notice that GG isn't in the car with me. Nope. He wanted to ride separately because I was cramping his "spin style". You can control your own car's ability to spin in parts of the ride, and he wanted his control all on his own.
On this very same turn, GG saw his score reach nearly 500,000 and he ended up ranked 64th! He was thrilled. I imagine it is like what he must have been like when he'd get high score on Space Invaders back in the day and he'd get to put his initials on the scoreboard.
Who says Disneyland is just for kids?!?
