The Time I got Lost at Disneyland

Hello, everyone, this story is gonna be about the time I got lost at Disneyland. I was about 7 years old and I wanted to go for my birthday. I went with my two sisters, parents, and a cousin who came to visit. My sisters and my cousin were on a ride and I was eating some ice cream waiting for them. I was waiting with my parents but at this time, they were about to start a parade. They were trying to clear out the "street" so floats could come through. Some families ran a little to get out of the way. My mom grabbed my hand and tried to pull me to the side, but some kid (maybe the age of 5) ran through us and it caused my mom to let go. I realized my ice cream was about to melt so I wanted to finish it fast and throw away the wrapper. I stood close by my parents which I thought was on a bench near a trash can. I stood there for about 20 seconds when I realized my parents were not on the bench. My mom and dad were watching me near a tree behind the bench. I guess they wanted to see what I would do if I were to really be lost. I turned my head left, right, back, and front looking for them, but it was too hectic for my 7-year-old self to see. I then look at everyone while I'm running around in this small area trying to see every corner I can see. I run to the exit of the ride my cousin and sisters were on. I wait for them for about 2 minutes, I stay close by the railing of the line. The moment I see them, I run to them and explain. My mom and dad were just laughing because they were so close to me and I just didn't see. My parents didn't just stay there, they walked closer and even right by me to see if I would notice. Every since that day, I learned how to watch what I'm doing and to be careful. Now this day when we think about it, we all laugh.That is the story about me getting lost at Disneyland, hope you enjoyed.
