Where's the weirdest place your child has slept?

So after checking on my 3 year old today I almost had a heart attack upon finding her bed empty and her nowhere to be seen. After a frantic search that took 30 seconds but felt more like minutes I heard her breathing. I'd already had a quick glance under the bed but I hadn't looked properly, she was curled up, sound asleep in the very back corner behind a suitcase we keep there for storage. It was pretty hard to actually get her out because I didn't want to drag her across the carpet and she wasn't waking up enough to get out herself. So, where are the weirdest places you've found your little ones asleep? It's funny, I don't usually feel the need to check on them this late but as I walked by the door I just had a need to look in.

I once did an afternoon clinic with a poorly three year old, whom I'd been asked to remove from nursery because she had a fever, sleeping on the floor under my consulting room couch. There was no one else who could look after her at short notice and letting patients and colleagues down because of a domestic emergency wasn't an option in those days.
