Feeding Time

I'm surprised that Kathy didn't want to try feeding the lorikeets but she didn't want them sitting on her. I think she was afraid they were going to poop on her!

I did end up having one of the Lorikeets pooping on me but it wasn't so bad. Since all they seem to eat is that nectar I was feeding them, the poop was just like water. It got on my shoulder and oneLue lisää

Feeding the birds is a lot of fun but I didn’t expect them to hop all over me! Well, that’s all part of the fun, I suppose.
Stromboli?
22. elokuuta 2016, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 82 °F
After we left Lorikeet Glen, we passed this cart standing alone and abandoned a little ways off the path. I'm not sure why nothing was being done with this cart. I would think that theme parks wouldLue lisää

This was the one, and only, ride we got on in Busch Gardens. The sky way was a nice way to get us back to the area of the park where we left off. By going on this ride, we gave our feet a rest and gotLue lisää

22. elokuuta 2016, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 82 °F

Stones Wolves
22. elokuuta 2016, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ⛅ 82 °F
This is one of the wolves standing guard outside of DarKastle and he really adds to the gloomy and gothic atmosphere. Apparently, the Curse of DarKastle is some sort of virtual reality rollercoasterLue lisää
