We recently celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary. It was Burke's turn to plan our Anniversary Date. We started the evening by dropping the kids off with Grandma and Grandpa (thanks again). We headed to our favorite Brazilian restaurant for some really yummy food. I actually liked the feijoada the best, surprisingly.
After dinner, Burke had a surprise planned for us. We went to an indoor racetrack to race go-karts.
After dinner, Burke had a surprise planned for us. We went to an indoor racetrack to race go-karts.
We paid for a 40 lap race, watched a little training video, put our gear on, and got ready to go. I was ahead right at the start, but there were some really sharp tight turns, and Burke pulled ahead soon after. After a few more laps, I caught up to him and was trying to pass, but he kept blocking me out. (Thankfully, we had the entire track to ourselves).
We kept at it like that for a while, when I was finally able to pass him. I was feeling quite proud of my driving skill when I noticed he wasn't even keeping up with me. He got further and further behind until I finally passed him a second time. I became a little concerned when I saw him pull into the station to get out of his kart.
And then it dawned on me.... HE'S CARSICK! After all, we are talking about the man who got sick on the merry-go-round at Disneyland. *Sigh* I finished my race, gathered my stats (I did have the fastest lap time, even before he got sick. Girl Power!) and gathered up my husband. He was looking a little green, but felt a little better after getting rid of some of that yummy dinner we had.
I drove him to Grandma's where he spent the next hour laying down before we left to go home.
He may not be the next NASCAR sensation, but I love him!

I find that I get motion sickness, but I have never been that bad!! I recommend you NEVER go on a cruise!
Let me know if you need some scopolamine for next time.
