We had just gotten out of the sea lion show and still had thirty minutes to spend before the next show. It was then when my dad spotted a roller coaster called The Manta.

An elderly man with snow-white hair, wearing a vintage Dodger cap, which dated back to the days of Sandy Koufax, was at the wheel.
