Coaster Trips: 2006
This year marked my first complete calendar year in regular employment. In theory this should have made it impossible to spend more than twenty working days in parks. However, choosing to take all my overtime as additional annual leave solved that problem. Of particular note was July 26th, in which I managed (for the first and probably last time) to ride twenty one new coasters in one day!
