It's a smalllll smallllll worldddddddd...

Almost 20 years ago, a friend and I went to Disneyland and got stuck on the "Small World" ride for 45 minutes. We were nearly insane by the time the ordeal was over...

The ride consists of large rowboats which float around a manmade canal. As you pass various scenes, the languages and costumes of many lands are displayed. And the song plays, over and over and over and over and.....

The boat ahead of ours got off the underwater track which moves the boats along. Our boat bumped into the first boat. Then another boat. Then another. Finally we had 12 boats in a line, all stuck because of the first boat.

The canal was too wide to reach from the boats. At last, a child in one of the boats jumped out and onto a platform, setting off a motion detector alarm. Security officers came out of the walls, and were very upset at the child.

When we explained how we all got stuck, they eventually pushed the first boat to get it started on track again. And, we all moved along and back to safe dry land.

After all these years, I think this scene would be the perfect start to a horror movie - They went in, but no one ever came out.....
