An Evening at Busch Gardens

Too tired to write much. There's nothing like keeping up with a four-year-old at a theme park to remind me I'm not as young as I was once. Of course, he got in a nap on the drive to the park, and then slept most of the way home, too. But we had fun. Random observations:

• I last rode the log flume 32 years ago. It's just as wet as I remember it.
• BBQ chicken at the Trapper's Smokehouse. Mmm good. And chocolate cake that's to die for.
• My main gripe with the food: no Coke. It's strictly a Pepsi venue.
• Never before have I seen an animal show with such a variety of dogs, cats, parrots, geese, and one large pig.
• I'm not a roller coaster person. The flying dragon ride is about my speed. John went on it with me to show me how to work the controls. We rode in a green dragon this time.
  
• The Curse of DarKastle castle looks very impressive. Maybe someday I'll take the ride. But not today.
  

Next time I want to ride the train.
