Making foam of sky
With kicking feet
And screeching mouths,
Must be the new spin
Of a hit thing
Going around.

π Truth is, I don’t mind heights. I even LIKE heights. It’s the milkshake effect I don’t particularly appreciate. Especially not since a car accident with whiplash lotta years ago, an inner-ear infection some years after that that made motion-sickness a plausibility in cars (let alone a blender), and a spine that seems disposed to spritzing disks in all directions as it is … I’m thinking, I’ve had my share of surgeons’ science experiment, and I’m better off holding on to whatever architecture I still have intact … π
So, yeah, I’m the official holder-of-bags and babysitter-of-strollers (and their inhabitants), and am known among my familiars as the “bench resident photographer” in all amusement park adventures. π
As the saying goes
(invented this moment, but who says it need to be old?):
“Go milkshake yourself with ease, and I will take your photo, pretty as you please.”

I am killing myself laughing here. (At your little ditty definitely not at your unfortunate trips to the ER and hospitals, mind. Not funny at all. I would definitely avoid any pain-inducing rides, myself. Matter of fact, there are those that I do.
I am no longer a fan of any spinny-teacup-y type ride any longer as my stomach no longer things it’s fun. At all.
This particular ride doesn’t spin so fast that it would cause that sensation, I should think.
And you can sit with my sister. She’s our official bag/kid/stuff holder…

Good, I’ll have your sister to gossip with as we chase toddlers and snap photos of hurling (or did I mean hurtling?) people on spinning, swinging, blending, upside-downing things. π

Hahaha! Thankfully, there are no more toddlers, so you can just sit back and relax as you gossip away.

Oh, in my family there are PLENTY of toddlers … (granted, they are now my sisters’ grands but we got us a whole bunch!). She can help run after ours … π
As for the spinning-tea-cuppy thingy — found you a video of a ride similar to the above:

Yanno… I have not been to an amusement park in ages… I might chicken out now that I’m an “old fart” π

Ha! Well, speaking of …
A little boy who’d been to an amusement park over the winter break, had announced to me upon their return: “We went on the roller-coaster and it made Mama fart and she said it was Daddy but it had Mama fart smell.” π
(Kids do tell me all manner of things I could probably live without knowing about, but life would be a lot duller without those …).

Yep. Like the kid who’d announced to me “You’re already old so you’re almost going to die,” then added in a conciliatory tone, “but I think maybe not today.”
So far the kid’s been right. So, not today, either … π
