Skywatch Friday - Nearly reaching the sky

This was taken (my posh new camera died and rubbish old camera turned itself black and white but you get the idea!) on our first outing of the year to Alton Towers Theme Park. Anya has had a good grow in the past year and is now big enough to go on lots of the big people rides! I have no problem going on them myself but my baby, that's a whole other story! The most scary moment for me was taking her on the Sonic ride below - she was screaming "I'm scared, I'm scared" all the way round - the moment it stopped she asked if she could queue to ride again!
Lots of other people all around the world have poked their cameras upward - go and see the results at Skywatch Friday

PS Ba Bags more photos to come - just need to sort them xo

Update - here they are
My big boy wishing he was slightly bigger

Mostly looking the right way!

    I am a ride chicken too, and like your daughter I say at the end "Again!, Again!".

  13. I love that black and white shot. You know I have never been to Alton Towers, don't think I am missing much as I don't like those big rides.
