Slip Sliding Away

 A year ago I could not get a ticket for this slide so I put it on my list.  The sun was in and out but with no wind and 29° conditions were perfect. We were staying at the Travelodge Docklands and the room was ready at 12 noon so we started early.  We took the freebie city circle tram to Spring St. So my new free ride Myki card didn't get used.  Also how come you don't have to touch off on trams when exiting but you do have to touch off for exiting trains?
 We had a Bratwurst snag from the food van for lunch. ( Should have had a slider! HaHa!)  We took a few calendar shots before our sliding started at 2:15. This is the longest slide I have had including any water  park. We slid a total of 1.6 km over 4 goes and it was around 20 minutes between slides. This is well organised and I would recommend it as good fun.  There is potential for injury! I am noticing that I am the oldest at numerous events lately.  One tip: If you are over 100 kgs you could well burst your donut. We saw this a number of times accompanied by a lot of other people's laughter.

Beware of busted donuts and wet freckles
