Perhaps cake + clown = birthday party?

Also, are you discounting the merry-go-round, clown, free admission thing?

Didn't Taylor sort of drop a hint about that?

Are you talking about the one in Santa Cruz?

I've been there before, there's definitely a carousel and a clown, but have any of the characters been there before? The "return" is throwing me...

Okay, okay. I think I have something. As I said earlier, I was looking up information on anything having to do with police or ponies in Sherman Oaks. I went to the Sherman Oaks Chamber Of Commerce, and I found info. on a War Memorial Park on this page: http://www.shermanoakschamber.org/sherm ... /index.cfm

They also listed a telephone number for the park, so I called it and asked if there were going to be any events involving horses in the near future. The guy said not at that park, but at another close by. I didn't catch the name of the second park, because I have crappy cell phone reception. I'm going to do more research to see if I can find anything else out.

This dead hourse parking lot is a place they have been before. What if they mean return to dead hourse park or that area.

At the seminar, we drank from glasses/cups...but I don't think that this would help Daniel/Jonas/Sarah in the slightest

Definately not now that I found out it is free admission.

We got horses. We got a clown. We got a guy named C. I. D. Its at an amusement park (probably affected by inclimate conditions). Im all for Santa Cruz Boardwalk http://beachboardwalk.com/03_press_carousel.html

At least if you went there and it was nothing you could get an elephant ear or a funnel cake.

This may be a long shot and I appologize if someone already said this, but is there a merry go round in the area?
I found pictures of one in Santa Monica Pier which is close but no address.
This merry go round is in an amuzement park. Santa Cruz Boardwalk. It was designed by a Charles I. D. Looff. Or (C.I.D. Looff). One of the features is a clown that holds a golden ring that you grab on your way by. I don't know if they would lead us to a place that charges admission though. http://beachboardwalk.com/03_press_carousel.html

Whoa edit the boardwalk's admission is FREE!

This is what I was thinking of...on closer inspection its not as promising as when I first read it.

'Rain or shine' would suggest somewhere indoors, right?

Alright, I'm making some progress, I guess. According to the city of Los Angeles Department of Parks and Recreation, there is going to be a HUGE "Salute to Recreation" spanning today, tomorrow, and Sunday. The brochure is here: http://www.laparks.org/salute/entertainment.htm
According to the brochure, there is going to be a PETTING ZOO, and there's a good probability that there will be a clown there. I'm still researching, and I thought I'd put this up.
