The Griffon Roller Coaster at Busch Gardens Europe, Williamsburg, Virginia

Here's the edge of Griffon's first drop.  You pull right up to this point and seemingly stop and just sit there soaking in the view of the brewery off in the distance and the ground a couple of hundred feet straight down.  Technically you don't stop and sit there, the chain pulls you slowly forward at .5 miles per hour until you get far enough for gravity to take over pulling you down.

Way beneath Bond is Griffon's station.

After hanging out up there for a while everyone wanted a picture of themselves.  So here's Paul (also known as Bratman on the -G Forums) posing for the lens.

Here is me and my boy hanging out way up there.  Getting to walk around on a lift hill really is an awesome experience and a dream come true.
