Day 27 – Chessington World of Adventures – Part 2

So to make up for the very boring day yesterday, we went out to Chessington Park again today to ride some of the rides we missed last week. We got to go on the rollercoaster (we didn’t even see it last Friday). It was called the Runaway Train. It was very similar to the Big Thunder Mountain ride in Disney World – but smaller. But we got to ride it 3 times so it made up for the shorter distance. Then we headed to the Laser Ride – think Buzz LightYear in Disney World but with Mummies, not aliens. We all scored well. Then Emily waited in line for the Cobra ride and Ainsley and I went on the bumper cars again. After the bumper cars we went to watch as Emily got on the ride – it was perfect timing. I went to get my phone out of my bag and realized it was missing. As soon as the ride ended and Emily said it was awesome and not very scary, we retraced our steps but to no avail. We did get to ride the laser ride again looking for the phone, not alas no phone. So we went home after a brief stop at the Sainsburys to get some food for dinner.

Luckily, when Scott got home that night, he had a message on his cell phone. The bus driver had found my phone and had dropped it off at the terminal for us to pickup the next day. We were very, very lucky.
