A little rain from Hurricane Irene didn't shut down Busch Gardens classic Arrow Dynamics designed Stanley River Falls log flume.

I'm not sure why but it seems the older the log flume the more that I like it. The reason is because of just focusing on the drop and splashdown the older ones meander around a bit which adds to the ride experience before splashing down for the rides finale.

Not really surprised that Busch Gardens' sky ride was down after the storm. The park recently turned this into an upcharge attraction which I'm not a fan of but understand. They don't want to remove the classic ride but with its age charging $5 a trip will cut down on the wear and tear as not everyone will pay for it and hopefully those funds go 100% into keeping it up and running for decades more.

Ubanga Banga is still my absolute favorite name for a bumper car ride.

Hearing Kumba start up we made a beeline to this awesome ride.
