These are positively wonderful! The expressions, the joy, the WILD MOUSE!
Nice!
I remember this ride! I rode it with my friends Carl and Kenneth and Lee the Flea.
I stood on the top deck of the Space Needle with two friends from the nursery school on E.Newton St. in Seattle, and cut helium balloons off the rail and watched as they floated to the sky above–all the time the local news cameras were filming. I was on the news that night!
