It was
another beautiful day in the park. We were once again blessed with fair weather and light crowds. Dorcas reneged on her roller coaster commitment. I rode solo on
Montu, but later Dorcas did ride with me on the
Scorpion, a rather small ride, but one which draws an impressive 3.5 Gs. Ironically, we waited over 1/2 hour to ride the Scorpion, while one could just walk on the major rides, such as Kumba, Montu, Sheikra, and Gwazi. It is probably for the best that
we rode no more coasters. I have been experiencing an inner ear ailment, and I felt ill after both rides, in fact, I felt poorly for the remainder of the day. I will probably ride no more coasters this trip. In order to recover from Montu, we rode on the Serengeti Express, a steam engine train ride that circles the park and travels
through the Serengeti plain, where many of the larger animals roam. This ride draws minimum G-forces and cruises at about 8 mph, a good old folks speed. We stayed on for two laps, about 1.5 hours. I did convince Dorcas to do one more water ride, the
Stanley Falls flume ride. This time she was better prepared and only got a little wet. I was in the front of the log, so I got a little wetter.
