I have been to many McDonald’s restaurants over the years and I can honestly say that I have never been to one that looked like this fun. When I was a kid, I always assumed that all these places in commercials were what the restaurants in California were like. I can tell you from experience that they are not, not at all. Still, I can dream of such a place, and hope one day to find one.

Yeah, I can’t say I ever had that much fun at McDonalds. Now Hardee’s on the other hand, that was a rocking party every time.
I love that the family are all wearing Groucho Marx glasses and moustaches! That bit was particularly surreal!
