I made several circles around Kingda Ka and the Golden Kingdom.  In the pics you can see that all FOUR trains are on the storage tracks in the center of the circuit.  One large crane was erected and in position at the spike, but no trains were doing any pull-thru testing.  I flew over at about 12 noon.  I took a shot of Medusa too, and it looks like it was painted, but then again, could be the sun.  This was beat to death in the forums.  You can also note in this area of the park that there is indeed a service road leading to the safari.  I am assuming this is the road the safari tour bus will use when you take it from INSIDE the park, near the Northern Star Arena.  I also snapped a few shots of Chiller, but unfortunately BOTH shots came out a little fuzzy.  I can tell you though, the paint job looked nice.
