So right now i'm out in the UAE with work. Today though, a few of us took a trip to Yas Island, home of the Formula 1 circuit and Ferrari World. It was Ferrari world we were there for (a run round the track should be in a couple of weeks time).
It's a good place, we had about 5 hours there (which is plenty) and went straight for the main attraction: Formula Rossa, the worlds fastest roller coaster.
If you've not heard of or seen it, go have a look on Youtube. Each ride lasts about 90 seconds and at the start you accelerate from 0 - 150mph in 4.8 seconds. It's so fast, you have to wear a very fashionable (not) pair of safety glasses in case of bugs etc.
Anyway, a few photos:
And here was the view of the circuit:
And the Yas Waterpark:
That's all folks!
