Wish me luck--I leave middle of next week for our annual 7th grade class trip. I'll be chaperoning about 70 kids aged 12-13 on a 4 day, 3 night trip to Orlando. The "educational" portion of the trip is a science-related tour behind the scenes at Sea World, but the real reason the kids (and we chaperones) signed up was for the rollercoasters, like the Incredible Hulk at Islands of Adventure. It's a rough job, but somebody has to do it!
Addendum: Check out this youtube of the Kracken coaster at Sea World. I think it may be even better than the Hulk.

Eye-yi-yi! You won't catch me on either of those things. I HATE roller-coasters, but I LOVE things that go round and round. Dizzy I can do, but NOT upside-down! It also freaks me out waiting for the rides to start when I'm strapped in there and it's too late to turn back. That's when you just brace yourself, shut your eyes, and get ready to scream.
Oh, and I assume it's not just you by yourself with the 70 kids. (Talk about bracing yourself, shutting your eyes, and getting ready to scream.) :) Well, have fun. I'll think of you when I'm SAFE and away from children, sitting in a building singing this weekend...
Ride the Dueling Dragons... Front Car!
Kracken is a pretty good ride.
Be safe. Have fun.
You're alive! Thought we lost you there buddy. Have a good trip; don't barf!
