Mid-Week Vacation Day

I took a day off yesterday to avoid the weekend crowds and visit Busch Gardens Tampa. It's about a 30 minute drive from my house. The park wasn't crowded and I was able to get on most of the rides. I was most looking forward to riding Sheikra again since it got upgraded to having cars with no floors. Sheikra is one of only 4 Dive Coasters in the world. You are seated 8 across and 3 deep in stadium seating, cranked to the top of the hill and then for a few seconds are halted at the top looking straight down 200 feet.

Photos don't do justice to the size of this drop when you are standing next to it; or looking down from the top :)
