Hello all. I am taking a trip to Busch Gardens Africa on March 22nd through the 26th. I'll be bringing a camera so I'm wonderin' if WWS would host some pics that I'll be takin' down there. Also, I'll be leaving a Park Trip Report. I'm very excited to hit the new Floorless SheiKra because my Unlce (who I am traveling with) says it's off the hook! Also, I'll get to hit two of my favorite rides, Kumba and Montu! Gwazi, I did not get to go on last year due to ridiculously long waits, so if anyone has been on it, tell me if it's a good ride so that I'll be smart about waiting or not.

^Yeah I know, was just reading about it [:(] Well that ruins half the trip. I really wanted to go on it! Maybe I can get some close-cap footage of station re-configuration due to the new trains. Anyway, now I can just look forward to Kumba, Montu, and Gwazi...oh yeah, and Scorpion thousands of times over and over and over. My little cousin adores that ride.

Yea, SheiKra doesn't change over until June. Gwazi was good when I rode it last April. It's worth a 15-25 minute wait in my opinion.

Well, you still get to ride it anyway, it's still a kick ass ride!

I'm going, but 5 days earlier. There's an ACE event that day.

...Confusion. So you mean SheiKra will be open, only with the floors?

We were reserved onto a plane late tonight (originally), but unfortunately, most of them were cancelled due to "confidential purposes and procedures"...

...so we were sent home at three o'clock this morning [|)]

I am going to get all my pics saved onto the hard drive, and I'll have a trip report up by the end of the day. It was a blast!
