Nothing Says 'Family Entertainment' Like Drunk Robots
Tuesday, August 02, 2005

A friend and I went to Rainbow Valley for the day. If I haven't told you already, it's closing at the end of the season, for good. I went here as a child, so we wanted to visit on last time.

What were my parents thinking?

Okay, really, Rainbow Valley is a neat place. For 1989. But, as I was sitting in a darkened room, in a simulated 'boat', with decades old audio tracks coming from decaying robots, watching rum runners get drunk and beat their wives, I had to think... why was this my favorite ride?

At every turn there's a different glimpse into the absurd. There's a petting zoo, with goats, lambs and... puppies.. and....kittens... and.. a calf. What? Isn't that random? I understand everything except for the puppies and kittens.... juxtaposed with the giant calf.

I really can't explain all the weirdness in one post. You really just have to go.
