Tales of Florida - part 1 of many (possibly)

Right I warned you all so anyone still reading this really should know what they're letting themselves in for. First tale of Florida isnt the best but i was wearing a T-shirt from this place today so we'll start there. Subject of this little ramble is the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at Disney MGM Studios.

The screams of the victims on the ride when you're approaching it are enough to put lots off - not me though. The blubbing of my son after going on the first time was nearly enough but not quite....(arent I sweet). It's not complicated....a little bit of travelling along in a little carty thing then some Twilight Zone style mumbling and shattering clocks - you know the sort of nonsense.....then

Plummeting....not just going down quickly but absolute scream out loud dropping - down oooh 13 floors or so. Then going up again, just high enough to see out of the carefully placed opening in the shaft so sunlight beams in blinds you and your screams can make it out as well to the worried looking passers-by.

Apparently each ride is randomly programmed so you might get the full 13 floors or you might not but all in all - great stuff. More soon no doubt when i dig out some more cheesy t-shirts!
