As some of you know, I'm on vacation to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, Virginia. Fun. I'll use this thread to post some amazing pictures and stuff.
Day 1: Ticket To Ride
Today we spent driving in our car. For five hours.

There's a restaurant called "Dirty Dick's" around here.
I'm not making this up.
I don't like Busch Gardens much. The Tampa, Florida one is only about 20 minutes worth of driving from my house (more if there's bad traffic) so my mom makes me go there a lot.
Welcome to the South. :D
HOLY SHIT IT'S TWO BEDS OH MY GOD
Cool.
I should post some of my cruise pics sometime.

What's in that shopping center from the view in your room?
Are you paying out the butt to use wifi in your room?
You should show some pics of yourself or your family having a good time or something.
Good for you Rio.
If you don't have fun, I'll kill you.

Next week, we are going down to Atlanta, though.
Sounds like fun, I've never been there.

They put a paper condom on your head right?
Day 2: Meandering
Today we woke up, slept in, and finally left the hotel room at around 11:30. We spent our time just wandering around until around 2PM. Seriously. From there, we decided to visit the Chesapeake Bay. It was huge, lots of people running around. It was actually very beautiful.

Pictures of the bridge, boats, and the beach.

There was a trolley, but we didn't ride on it.
(http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/4861/dscn3704gn7.jpg)
Some dead crab my sister found. Ugly thing.
(http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/8205/dscn3711rz8.jpg)
It's a boat. What more do you want from me?
(http://img234.imageshack.us/img234/4255/dscn3731fo4.jpg)
OOH A CANNON
(http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/7123/dscn3737mr8.jpg)
If you can't tell by the picture, there were a lot of birds sitting on the underside of the bridge. And I mean a lot.
(http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/6607/dscn3739bv7.jpg)
That bridge reminded me of Half-Life 2.
(http://img244.imageshack.us/img244/6466/img2893jx4.jpg)
Probably a power plant or something in the distance.

The piano in the hotel lobby. Looks expensive.
(http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/9438/dscn3797yw7.jpg)
Long hallway is long.
Oh, pretty.
Have any chowder at Chesapeake Bay? :P
where about on Chesapeake Bay are you? did you go over that 20 something mile long bridge?
Go to Dick's. If it is the place I'm thinking of you'll have a great time.
Upload a picture of your family so we can rape them.
I mean admire them.

No. Added a bit more pictures.
So far, I like all the pictures, keep them coming.
Needs more Riosan pictures.
hope you're having fun! Wish I still had my DC 4th of July journal. >_>
Yeah Rio, we wanna see your pasty white face. <3

Day 3: Still Not Getting Pics of Me.
We finally went to Busch Gardens today, so that was a lot of fun. It's 11:15 PM where I live, so I'm just going to post pics and not comment tonight.

Oh boy does this bring back lovely memories.
I went to BG a couple of years ago for a family reunion.
It's funny because our families last name is Bush.
Guffaw.

Apollo's Chariot, I think the name was.
I didn't ride Griffon or the Loch Ness Monster. I hate coasters that flip.
Rio, if you take nude pics, Star will be happy.
Is/was your vacation funsturbating?
I think I remember going to Busch Gardens once, just because of the coasters you named (although I didn't go on any of them :P). However, I previously thought those coasters were in Great Escape in Lake George, NY.
Apparently I was wrong...?

Yep, there was a little aquarium in one of the buildings across from our lunch place.
Go in the maze and caves. That's my only advice.
EDIT: I just read the post saying you left. Hope you had fun.

Did you know that when the ride first opened, the first row passenger seat (which a celebrity was riding) got hit in the face by a goose?
