What A Day

We had a long, but fun day today. We had told the kids that if they were good all week they'd get to go to Chuck E. Cheese. So, today after swim lessons we went to CEC for lunch and games. The kids had a lot of fun!

So after so much fun there, we decided to take them to Reunion Tower in Dallas. We went up to The Dome Lounge and had drinks (the kids had non-alcoholic, of course) and watched Dallas go around. The floor rotates a complete 360 degrees every 55 minutes.

After the fun at the tower and while we were in Dallas, we decided to eat dinner at a place called The Magic Time Machine. We had heard about this place a couple of months ago and thought about
checking it out while on vacation in San Antonio, but never made it. Well, the place has flair. The kids were able to order magic potions to drink, and the drinks were smoking when they arrived. There was a salad bar built into an old car and the booths were off the wall. You could sit in a giant pumpkin, a Crayola box, a library, school room, a giant 'dunce' hat, a real school bus, even a hut or a merry-go-round. Also, each and every member of the waitstaff is dressed in a costume of some sort and they can be different characters each time you visit. Tonight we saw Sinbad the Sailor (our waiter), Superman, Charlie (from the chocolate factory), the Tooth Fairy, Supergirl, Waldo, Madd Hatter, the Riddler, Zorro, Snow White, Harry Potter, Rainbow Brite, Lilo (and Stitch) and Robin Hood (I think that's all of them). The kid's menu doubles as an autograph book so everyone's kids were chasing down the characters to get their signatures. It was a wild and crazy time. You definitely don't go there for the food, though, because it wasn't all that good. All in all, it was fun.

2 and half hours at Check E. Cheese - $30.00
1 hour above Dallas with drinks - $35.00
A crazy time in a Magic Time Machine - $60.00
Having a GREAT day with your LOVING family - PRICELESS!!

And That's What I Think!
