Quotes

Brother: (excitedly to Mama, about Fun Park) Are we really going to go there, Mama?
Mama: Well, I’d like to-
Papa: (interrupts) You bet we’re going! I haven’t been there since I was a cub.
Brother: What do you remember best about it, Papa?
Papa: Oh, that’s a tough one. But I think I’d have to say it was either the gyro, or the super wings.
Sister: Those sound like great rides!
Papa: Rides? (chuckles) No, no. I’m talking about things to eat. Mm-mmm. Fun Park has foods from every country you can think of. And I intend to go on a world tour, let me tell you.
