Front row on board the Kraken

[Nostromo]

I've offered a wager of $50 to my normally timid sister-in-law to sit in the front row of the Kraken when we go there(not the £50 that she demanded, the poor lass is in India and unaware of the favourable current £ to $ exchange rate). She could never resist a challenge and has accepted the bet. We've got the camcorder ready for the moment when she gets off!

I only take them off in case they come flying off, only really need them to read etc. I havent
been on the rides you mention, but she is compiling a list as we speak of all the rides
where her and dadyy have to go

Like I said as ive got older these rides scare the life out of me, but wifey wont go so
I have to, (brave daddy)

Chris,
The first time we went to Sea World our oldest, he was about 10 at the time, decided he wanted to go on Kraken and asked everyone to go with him, no takers. So he decided to go on his own, we thought he would get to the front of the queue and chicken out, so waited for this to happen. Not him, no. Not only did he ride it, but at the front and when he got off he re-joined the queue! Mind you he also went on the rides on top of the Stratosphere in Las Vegas and said they were like site seeing tours!!! Wouldn't catch me up there.
Thats why I've started to ride them with him, he was putting me to shame.[msnembarrased]

Must admit im not looking forward to this year, wish the wife would go instead
of me, but oh no its a 'Daddy Job' so she says

I'm just waiting for my youngest to grow taller - he is the daredevil of the two, but gets very frustrated when he finds out he is not tall enough for the rides he wants to go on, like the Hulk (he's 5). I just have to ride on my own at the moment (as other half is chicken!).

Hi Lesley,
maybe your 'other half' is just like me, not chicken just sensible - if we were meant to be 'turned upside down' we would have learned to walk on our hands![msnsmile2][msnsmile2][msnsmile2][msnsmile2]

I tried it but when it came to Dr.Doom in Islands of Adventure they told me I didn't have any excuse 'cos it goes straight up & down![msncry][msncry][msncry][msncry]
