The kids, Tim, and I met up with Camm bright and early yesterday to explore the splendor that is Busch Gardens. Camm paid for Tim's ticket as his bday present, and for the month of August, you get a kid in free with each paying adult. (Garrett had to pretend to be 9, but I digress...). Busch Gardens is heads above Kings Dominion in so many areas....clientele, landscaping, cleanliness, food options, etc. The kids loved the new roller coasters. Garrett and Tim did the Griffon and Alpengeist by themselves due to height issues, then Caroline was able to join them on the Apollo's Chariot 4 times and the Loch Ness Monster. Due to my current condition, I was able to join everyone on exactly 3 attractions: Rhine River Cruise, Skyrider (gondolas in the air that take you all over the park), and the train that loops the park. Thrilling, really. Luckily Camm is allergic to all rides so we hung out on shady benches to wait for the group. Stephanie, Kevin, and kids ended up going to BG too, so we met up after their lunch with Elmo (this activity was great for her kids, but mine were not impressed). The whole group (minus the older folks and the pregnant one) did Escape from Pompeii and Roman Rapids. I am a big believer in leaving the rides that get you soaking wet until the end. The kids (and Timmy) had a blast!
