So the last update of this trip was actually the FIRST place we visited!  About two days before the official trip started,
we did a crazy side trip up to the Skegness, UK area! 

Plane landed around 11am, we were in our car by noon, and at the park by 3pm!  Robb is driving on the wrong side of the road,
on the wrong side of the car.  We're doomed!


And here we are at Fantasy Island!  The biggest seaside park in the Skegness area!


This place would NOT be "Tommy & James" approved!!!!


The *BIG BAD OMFG* ride was the Jubilee Odyssey (sponsored by food, just like all the other UK coasters!)


So here it is.  The seat of evil, the chair that would eventually bring my manhood down two notches lower than ever before. 
The seat that made me look at Elissa and say "Wow, now THAT is an impressive man!"


The daunting twisted mess of track is trying to hide in the fog, trying to trick us into not knowing what is in store for our riders....


And there it is in all it's evil wicked glory.  The ride mostly known as the *GIANT* SLC! 
Those are words that turn most men sterile!


Climbing the lift we quickly create our last will and testament.  All our pinball machines go to Cameron...if we had any...


BRACE YOURSELF!!!!


HOLY CRAP!!!  WHAT THE F**K IS THAT?!?!?!!??  OH DEAR GOD!!!!!  HELP US NOW!!!!


The twisted mess is like watching an episode of Saved By The Bell.  You want to turn it off, but you CAN'T!!!! 
You just keep watching....and you don't know why!


Derek is in awe......"Wow" he says.  "I am in the presence of greatness....the VERTICAL LOOP on the GIANT SLC!"


Few thoughts pass through my mind...."Why was I put on this earth?"  "Does god exist?"  "Who invented liquid soap and WHY!?!??"

And then suddenly the ride ends....and there is a moment of pure bliss....peaceful....am I still alive?


OMFG!!!  THAT WAS REALLY GOOD!!!!!


WHAT THE HELL!?!?!?!?  DUDE!!!  THE GIANT SLC ROCKED!!!!


Derek:  "YEAH, BABY!!!!  YEAH!!!!!"
Dan: "Meh, I've had more painful insulin shots."
Jeff: "Are you the guy that hosts Survivor?"


So who would have thought that the Giant SLC would have been REALLY GOOD?!??!  We were expecting to beaten senseless!


And OMG, what was with this drop!?!?!?!  It seemed almost vertical!


Yeah, ok, so it wasn't totally "butter smooth" but still it was really good!


Mmmmm.....butter.......


"I'M ON THE GIANT SLC!!!!  AND I'M STILL ALIVE!!!!"


Yeah, it had some really wacked out inversions!


And just in case...there was the Ambulance Bay just underneath!  You know.... "just in case!"  ;)


Millennium Odyssey is just sitting there thinking...."that's right guys....I'm NEXT!"  ;)


OMG!  So *THIS* is where the signature move started!!!!
