I had some "unwanted traction control issues" a few times. most saw mw before entering the park.

Up hill + wet + boost = sidewards

actualy a few people had breaking issues/traction issues in that park, it was very slippery in spots.

downhill + leaves + wet slippery road + speed hump = not good

Good day, tho i was a tad hungover. Pretty easy directions this time around aswell which is always a plus. Some great photo locations aswell, especially in this time of year with the leaves being allsoughts of beautiful colors. Took a few photos but my internets upload speed is hideously slow so i wont be putting them up. Can;t wait to see alex's photos tho

Well my photos are still a day or 3 off, but believe me when I say every free minute I've had since the cruise has been spent working on these photos! But here are 4 that I've finished working on just to whet your appetities









Enjoy!

Alex
