Shot taken on 29th June – fourth day of our vacation.
Screams from this roller coaster. I would never go on this one.
Joke: This old man wanted to try out one of the roller coasters at the park before he died.. He sat down next to a younger man. While waiting for the roller coaster to ‘take off’ he noticed that the young man had a strange kind of shirt collar, so he asked the man, "Excuse me, sir, but why do you have your shirt collar on backwards?"
The young man smiled kindly and answered, "I wear this collar because I am a Father."
The old man thought a second and responded, "Sir, I am also a father, but I wear my collar front ways. Why do you wear your collar so differently?"
The priest thought for a minute, and said, "I am the Father for many."
The old man quickly answered, "I too am the father of many. I have six sons, five daughters and many grandchildren. But I wear my collar like everyone else does. Why do you wear yours backwards?"
The priest, flustered, said impatiently, "Sir, I am the Father for hundreds and hundreds of people."
The old man, taken aback, sat silently for a long time. As the roller coaster was starting its journey, he leaned over to the priest and said, "Mister, maybe you should wear your pants backwards."
Thank you very much for looking and for your lovely comments on yesterday's picture.
OMG, I love this photo!! The people are so tiny compared to the roller coaster!!! I'd be on it in a heart beat!!! It's the ferris wheel that scares the crap out of me!! It always stops at the top with me up there rocking and screaming!! Just hate it!! Love this photo though!! FAV!
Great composition and use of portrait format. The suspense in this is almost unbearable, I'm holding my breath waiting for them to plummet down! Brilliant. Fav.
Great action shot.
