Jambo is very similar to a falling star ride. The only difference here is that there are small dividers on the benches that gives everyone their own individual seat. This detracts from the ride a bit, as the best part of a normal falling star is the sliding back and forth in your seat, crushing your neighbor at one moment and then getting crushed in return the next. With these separate seats, this was not possible. One the plus side, this ride didnt waste any time getting started. It didnt have to arc back and forth to gain momentum like these rides normally do. It started circling around immediately. And there was a great view when the ride did pause at the top. Marine World was to the left, and the lake that borders it was on the right. Great photo op!
