The Wandering Disciple

Just like the childhood fable, an Aldabra Tortoise crawls slowly across its enclosure. These massive turtles move at a speed of just 0.3 miles per hour in comparison to a human's average speed of 2.8 miles per hour.  Aldabra Tortoises are found in the Aldabra Atoll in the Seychelles. They are the second largest tortoise in the world behind the Galapagos. Aldabras can reach up to 550 pounds in the wild.  Taken: November 12, 2005 at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay (Tampa, FL)

A replica of the iconic Hershey Chocolate factory smoke stacks welcomes you to Hershey's Chocolate World. When you pass through these doors, you enter the sweet world of the Hershey's company and get a behind the scenes look at how your favorite candy is made.  Opened in 1973, Hershey's Chocolate World took the place of the over capacity factory tours. Here visitors hopped aboard the chocolate tour ride and get an inside look of the process from the cocoa bean trees of the tropics to final production line with each ride ending with a sample of a Hershey's candy. The popular attraction also features a themed gift store, candy store and much more.  Taken: August 29, 2005 at Hershey's Chocolate World (Hershey, PA)
