Last night i had two Buds, two sambucas, one margarita, one shot of mint spirit (who knows what it was) and two shots of some 100% proof thing Andy Write asked for. Was kinda wasted last night but have made a great recovery this morning. Lucky for me i don`t do hang overs or that could be a bad one. Kinda thankful today is a late start though.

Off to Wildwood now. Morey's Piers then late night into Atlantic City.

Had a look at your photographs and they are fantastic.

Hope you are having a great time.

So far I've only seen the first three sets of your photos:
USA 2009 (6th June, 2009)
Busch Gardens Europe (7th June, 2009)
Go Karts Plus (7th June, 2009)

From what I've seen so far, you lot are all having a mega fun time in the USA.  So 6 June was the day you flew over to America (I saw your pics of you lot at Heathrow Airport and on the plane), and 7 June was at Busch Gardens Europe.

I noticed you lot on Griffon, with its vertical drop.  So that's something like Oblivion at Alton Towers then?  Also I noticed you riding it after dark.  Was that a dark ERS late at night on it?

Then I saw you Big Stevie B posing with Ernie and Bert in the Sesame Street section.  So I'm not the only adult kid who likes to have my picture taken with costume characters at theme parks

If only I was there Sad   Never mind, I went to south Devon from Friday 5 to Monday 8 June to have lots of fun over four days there instead, and here's an in-depth report about it.  I'll be at the Summer Bash at Flamingo Land on Saturday 4 July.

Enjoy the rest of your USA trip.  See you at the Summer Bash.
Steven Burns

Erm OK lol

Next parks pics up now. Today was Six Flags New England. Got lots of great character photo ticks as well as all 9 coaster ticks. (that's 9 more that Smiler doesn't have!). Today was my biggest number of photos, over 300. So book the weekend off work Nick to have a look.

Tomorrow is the full park ERS. Great Escape.

A nice report. 'Bi-annual trip' - we can't hold out that long for a US trip.

Thanks to everybody for another fantastic trip. I will never know how Nev manages to arrange such a special time, getting exclusive time on the piers, parks and rides were unbelievable, so a special thanks to him
