First of all I have to say that I LOVE the movie GREASE. I can probably receit the whole movie. Yep I have seen it way to many times. What does that have to do with the title of my post, well one of my favorite scenes is when they are at the drive in and Danny and Sandy are stting in the car and he trys to make out with her, of course she gets mad and gets out of the car and runs away. So what does Danny do? he gets out of the car and sings "Stranded at the drive in.....branded a fool.....what will they say Monday at school....." then continues to sing sitting on a swing in front of the movie screne which is showing a dancing hot dog and bun, because the movie hasnt started yet. Yep I laugh everytime I watch it!
Anyway last week we has heard that a small one screen drive in reopend in Goleta. So we decided to go watch a movie, well 2 movies since at the drive in you get a double feature for the price of one movie!! So for $6.75 for adults and $1.00 for kids 5-11, we got to sit outside and watch 2 movies on a giant 65 foot screne. We went with some friends and they brought their 2 girls. We watched Shrek Forever, the kids fell asleep part way into the movie, and then we stayed for Ironman 2. Now for the stranded part, you now listen to the movie through your car radio, which of course means you wear your battery down. Our died during the first movie. Luckily Jesse brought a battery charger and was able to charge it and the theater employees have one so they go around and help who ever needs it. Of course we didn't get stranded, but I had to some up with good title. I have to say I missed going to the drive in!!! Its so much more fun to watch a movie from your car or the back of a truck. You can bring in your own food and drinks. Lots of people had beer, which I know you aren't supposed to do, but they do it anyway. We even saw one group of people who brought a couch. We brought chairs, but a couch??? Anyway a good time was had by all and we are deffinately going again soon!!!
