Once in a lifetime


Those who have spent some time with me are aware that I am easily overwhelmed by noise and light. When it is my turn to choose music to listen to in the car, I usually choose silence. Obviously Tivoli in Copenhagen is not my favorite place to enjoy life. Knowing this, I would assume that Chuck E. Cheese's would be the worst place on earth for me to spend an afternoon.

Surprise, surprise: I actually enjoyed it. It was so noisy that I could hardly hear my own thoughts. The various game machines were flashing and blinking. And still I had a good time with the kids, husband, friends, friends' kids etc. Even though I felt totally out of place, I was able to just be a kid and play as one.

I also love the pictures we took in the photo booth!

All that said, I still think a friend of mine was right when he commented on his visit with his kids to the place: "It's a once in a lifetime experience. You visit once, and then you never do it again!"

  1. Hehe, nyydelig bilde:P Jeg savner Chuck E. Cheese`s, California, skolen og alt egentlig (selvom Norge er best å bo i). Kan ikke vi dra tilbake snart? Bra du synes det var gøy der, men XRtainment Zone var ikke så ille bråkete heller!? :)

  2. Hi anonymous daughter,
    I also miss California - we had a lot of fun. Hopefully we can go back and visit friends in LL.
