Wohoo! What a day!!! Got up rally early and had a singsong for Col. He's getting on a bit now, 24 and all : )
Then Keith and Sam came and got us at 7.30am.... Off we went in Sharon's car. Took about 2 hours to Alton Towers.
Had managed to get 1/2 price tickets and saved ourselves £50! Cool!
Rides we went on were (in order):
Rita, Queen of Speed (0-110km/h in 2 seconds)
Corkscrew (Rollercoaster like a...)
Oblivion (200ft sheer drop!)
Oblivion (no queue so we went again!)
Nemisis (G-Force greater than a Space shuttle takeoff!)
Air (Head first upside down Rollercoaster!)
Katanga Canyon (wet wet wet!)
I didn't get scared at all. Normally I go with my sister or Ems and we like to wind eachother up close to being hysteric! This time it was just pure fun! I like being scared too though!
Rita was the quickest Rollercoaster I've been on. Corkscrew was cool. nice soft bumps. Oblivion wasn't as scary as I thought it'd be! Nemisis was wicked!!! Air - well, a copmpletely new experience! Fab! Finished off the day with the floaty water thing which was nice too.
Ended up back in Walkern at Col's Dad's place for some well deserved cake. Yum! As we#ve insured our Love Bug again we decided to move it to Sharon's house, so the guys got it started no problemo! Cool! We have a car again! Have decided to drive it down to Salisbury too and camp (bit of a money saving plan really!). Got the car taxed this morning too so truely ready to go!
