Probably the most memorable ride at the old Santa's Village was the
fire truck ride.
Kevin's wife had to leave for a little bit so Bond and I had to corral all
the kids including the twins for our ride.
The Santa's Village Fire Department Engine No. 3 ride is really simple and
fun.
You are taken on a ride out to a small metal house that is on fire.
As volunteer fire fighters of the Santa's Village Fire Department your job
is to put the fire out
Back when I was a kid you were equipped with a garden hose sprayer sort
of a contraption for taking out the flames. What made it fun was you
could turn the sprayer around and nail a fellow rider like I did with my
sister. I guess too many parents and siblings got soaked by rambunctious
youths like myself so they added these tubes that keep you from targeting
fellow riders.
