One of the things that I really like about Worlds of Fun over the last few years is they have been actively working to bring back elements of the parks past. Several years ago the Cotton Blossom BBQ opened which pays homage to the Cotton Blossom paddlewheel boat that used to be part of Worlds of Fun's Americana entrance. Other things that have been brought back are the Floral Clock and removing theming elements that didn't fit a given areas theme, such as the Coasters Diner that was super 1950's "Happy Days" that really didn't fit in Africa. Bringing back a reimagined ride falls right in line with what the parks strategy of honoring the past while making Worlds of Fun bigger and better.

Here we are. My suitcase was packed and I was ready for a safari on the Zambezi Zinger.

Worlds of Fun presented all of the attendees with these suitcases. Each of them had a Coaster Dynamix Zambezi Zinger model car and a letter stating that we were the first to ride. This is something that they didn't have to do but it is another example of going above and beyond.

Let's get down to the actual ride on Zambezi Zinger.
