Ah summer thrills! My husband and daughter have gone up (and down, and up and down) on one of these, but I prefer to keep my cookies :-).
Nice shot from beneath.

Thank you for the visit. That was my first and perhaps my last time...i had images of tiny vessels ripping apart in my brain.

Eek! Does it spin while it's dropping? No, thank you.

No it doesn't spin. The pauses at the top seems like a few minutes and then, without warning it drops. For me, there was at a point at which, I was just beginning to accept the sensation of doom and then I felt the brakes kick in.

Ha! That is the aroma of this particular flower.
