I almost forgot!

The best part of our drive home from Kindercity (post below). Yes, it was still raining.

The song Dancing in the Moonlight came on the radio while we sat in traffic, in the rain, with my car leaking. I'll get to that in a little bit.

Anyway, feeling punchy from the traffic and the rain dripping on my passenger seat, I started dancing and singing. Well, car dancing. It isn't like you can stand up and rock out, know what I mean?

So I'm bopping back and forth and singing when Marion chimes in. I look back and she is bouncing back and forth in her carseat and singing the refrain, "Dancing in the moonlight!", over and over again in her cute little voice.

We had a little party while in traffic on the E41. Fun times!

Now my leaky car. Before I broke out into song, I noticed water dripping from the passenger sun visor onto the passenger front seat. It took several drips before I figured out where it was coming from. Not from the windshield or the sun roof, but from the screw holding the sun visor onto the roof of the car! Ugh, I'll have to go to the Peugot dealership when Marion gets up from her nap. Not fun times.

(FYI, When I clicked on "dancininthemoonlight" twice, I connected to a brief article.)
Mrs. Mac, you and your daughter groovin' in the car is a cute story. I have to admit, the only sort of dancing I can do half-way decently is seat-dancing!
