Hershey Park: Fun in the sun and a hard smack in the face...

So as I mentioned in yesterday’s blog I was looking forward to “Springtime in the Park” and felt like it might give me the smack in the face that I need. Well ask and ye shall receive…1st up was my favorite old coaster “The Comet” which I was able to squeeze myself into. It was a bit uncomfortable but I figured that if I could handle that the rest of the day would go well. Boy was I wrong… After the Comet Mary and I decide to head over and get on “The Claw”. Well as I squeeze myself into this one, the attendant come over and sees that the shoulder harness must not be locked into the correct position, and begins forcing it tighter to no avail…then it happened…I was told I was to large to ride. I laughed when I had to get off because that’s my defense mechanism, so no one on the ride could see my complete embarrassment. As I stood there and watched Mary ride and tried to choke back tears, I realized that I needed that to happen. I needed to be completely embarrassed. As it stands now my Goddaughters are coming to visit and go to Hershey Park the end of June. I refuse to be embarrassed in front of them, I refuse to not be able to go on any rides with them….
