SheiKra
SheiKra is an AWESOME roller coaster—definitely my favorite in the park. It has two drops that are 90 degrees straight down.

SheiKra was way too fast for my pocket camera to freeze the action…

…even trying to follow one of the cars along the track, I couldn't get all of it from blurring

This fellow was floating next to the window where the hippo lived and seemed oblivious to my close-up photography.

The tour driver made a hilarious joke about this. Sadly, so much time passed between this day at the park and when I actually posted the photos, I forgot the joke.

Broken bridge on Rally ride
This part of the Rally ride was amazing. There's a part where we stop on a bridge and the bridge breaks away with the truck still on it. Sure, the whole thing is on a track, but it's a convincing representation that you're being carried out of control down a river.
