SheiKra

SheikraSheiKra rocks! Shirley and Ben and I had planned to do this as a family, but then Shirley went and broke her foot (1 2). So last weekend Ben and I popped over to Busch Gardens
for a few hours to ride SheiKra and hit several of the other cool
rides. Adding to the coolness is that, as Florida residents, we get a
two-for-one deal (buy a ticket and get to come back again on any
additional day this year). Anyway... SheiKra is by far the
smoothest coaster I've ever ridden. It seems like the ride is over very
soon, but they say it goes for 3 minutes. Maybe the meaning of time is
altered by the adrenaline. Oh, and it turns out that Ben and I got to
sit in the front row :-) ...Nothing like dangling looking down that 200
foot vertical drop for a few seconds before the fall. What a rush! If
you get the chance, do give it a shot. If you're not sure, or if you're
just curious, enjoy the QuickTime version of the ride.
