My bro brought me over a CD of the video he took of Manta. I was SO impressed. One thing the Merkins seem to do especially well (sadly for me)
Did you make the obligatory Steve Irwin jokes? |

Kumbar, Montu, SheiKra.... the lot. And it was a beautiful sunny day in the mid 70s. excellent day, excellent. Hector and I managed 42 inversions, we think. Among other rides.

eek! only a few days after we saw the show, a trainer was killed during the killer whale show at Seaworld!
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8535618.stm We suspect it may be the woman we watched.

It rained every freaking day I was in Orlanda last summer. Torrential Noah-like rain. But if you waited about fifteen minutes, it stoppped and you could go back on the rides. The only real bummer for me was that they did not re-open Jaws at Universal because it was a line of thunderstorms that was moving through. Universal had a lot of indoor stuff to do, and many of the lines were set up to be under cover so it wasn't as bad as it sounds.
I now want to go back to check out the Harry Potter section. It was under construction while I was there and we were able to look at the site. Hogwarts looked really cool. While I was down there a stuntman in the Indiana Jones show was killed, and I think one of the stunt drivers in the auto thing at Disney was either injured or died.

Edit to add: I don't know whether it's open yet or not. He works there, so he may have seen behind-the-scenes stuff. |

They've been advertising it quite a bit during the Olympics. I think it opens this summer.

It's rained nearly every day in the last 10 days in Lanzarote. That's where the 'rents are. They come home today - Mum's been keeping me up to date via text message.
I've been able to cheer her up by reporting snow here though. |
