Flingal's Funtropolis

"Bill rifled through an old snowboarding pack that hung from his shoulder—making sure Marie hadn’t forgotten anything—while Eli sat on the floor, banging a stray clothes hanger against the wall, singing sporadic lines of 'Wheels on the Bus'."

"Flingal's Funtropolis" is a magical theme park, full of popular rides, unwinnable games, and overpriced cafetria food, named for the friendly creature kid's love, Flingal. To celebrate their son's second birthday a young couple try to put everything aside and make it through the day.
