Woo

It was pretty cool out during my visit... So Gator Falls was skipped. I only saw a few people ride it all day, and most were kids that didn't seem to care that it was Florida-Cold outside.

Although the Wallaroo Station Water Play Area was pretty much abandon...

Lil' Joey's Caravan had been built sometime between my last visits here. An SBF/Visa ride that I'd seen all over Europe... this was my first time seeing one in the US.

 African Guided Safari was pretty packed today as well.. But the Zoo seemed unprepared for it... As only one tram was being used and only 2 cars... The line for it was at least 2 cycles wait, and the ride lasts 20 minutes or so.

Annddd... Tasmanian Tiger is still here, and now featuring orange supports. Rather the yellow it had when it first opened.

Took it for a courtesy ride. :D

And lastly, hidden away behind a fence, is all that's left of the SkyFari. During my last trip here, the ride was also closed.. but the supports were still in place (cable-less) and the seats were all stacked up in a pile. Now everything has been removed. :(
