It has to be said, when it comes to rollercoasters and thrill rides, the UK really stinks. Most are over before they've even begun.
I'm not saying the USA hasn't got it's fair share of rubbish. But most of them are at least worth waiting in line for. Oh no. Sorry - that's more a UK thing again. Yes there are lines in the USA too, but they don't last long.
Dare I even mention admission prices? Season Passes? Free Beer?
OK yes I am very biased. But you would be too if you had ventured onto some of the great rides the USA has to offer.
Busch Gardens rocks my socks - and now they have more frightening rides!
Alton Towers is so 1979... (has a lovely garden though)
