Theme Parks Ice Cream
660 wordsThe black pirate hat danced around in the air, weaving and bobbing to some Disneyland music. Attached to it was my head and the rest of me, being dragged along on this wild ride.

The pirate hat and the warm Florida night had taken control, and my self-consciousness went right out the window. I danced, not greatly or with any skill whatsoever, but I danced.

But before getting even halfway through Moby Dick, the reader knows that wh...
