In the summer of 2014, my family and I packed into the red Chevrolet Silverado. There were six of us in a five-seat truck. We were packed in so tight we could barely breathe. We took on the four-hour trek with excitement to Sandusky, Ohio. We finally arrived. We searched up and down the town to find a room to stay in for the night. At around 7:30 that night we finally found one, after searching for a million years. Our hotel room was a run-down shack on the side of the road. Every few hours the train would come down the train tracks chugging along, sounding its horn, and shaking the hotel room like an earthquake. We got two rooms to sleep in for the night because not all of us could fit into one. The room my mom, dad, and two sisters slept in was hotter than the devil’s room. The big white air conditioner along the baseboards was broken. We finally got settled into our dark, dingy rooms. My mom comes knocking on our door. I opened the door and she came in and lifted up the mattress searching for bugs. She continued her search throughout the room, finding nothing. After her search, we got nestled …show more content…
We hurried up and put our bags away, as we were going to ride roller coasters. We started off easy because I had never ridden a roller coaster before. The first one we rode was called the Blue Streak, and it had been at the park for over 60 years. The Blue Streak was a wooden coaster, so the ride was rough but fun. After a few more rides, we went to eat. We decided to get pizza. The pizza order was put in and we sat and talked about what we wanted to ride next. We all decide to ride The Maverick. Our pizza comes out of the oven red hot. The cheese was stringy. When you picked up a piece of pizza the cheese stretched for miles. We rode rides for hours. My favorite roller coaster was the Top Thrill Dragster. The coaster was as tall as the Eiffel Tower, and as fast as a
In the 1800s, anti-Catholic sentiments were ablaze throughout North America. Protestants were against Catholics due to the fact that Catholics were “outsiders.” Catholics had deviated from Protestantism, causing unrest between the two groups. During this time, literature was a prominent way of denouncing Catholicism. The most famous, and yet horribly untrue, piece of anti-Catholic literature is Maria Monk’s Awful Disclosures of the Hotel Dieu Monastery in Montreal.
As we got in the big red truck my dad said you ready and I said ‘YES’. There we are on the road. As we entered Omaha
Six flags great america (1) When I walked into Six Flags I could hear the music from the carousel playing, and smell the popcorn, and nachos. The people there with us we 're Kara, Kathy, Lisa Jorgensen, Natalie Digllier, Copper, Payton Makena and their mom. Some of them asked me if I wanted to go on the ride called the Raging bull
One summer day my friend, family, and I traveled to Carowinds.sAs we embarked on our vacation, we soon discovered that the trip was extremely lengthy. Upon arrival at the park, we heard the shouting of the kids as they were enjoying the rides.cx After entering the park we darted towards the largest roller coaster there. The first problem we encountered was our fear of riding roller coasters.cdWe began to feel the thrill as we went down the first ramp and no longer had fear. The best part about the whole day was experiencing the thrill as you enjoyed the ride. Finally, we ended the day by eating out and traveling home.
As we walked inside the dirty, salt stench, of a theme park, My sister started going nuts wanting to ride everything. My parents told her to wait a minute while they got themselves situated. Finally the part of the trip I was dreading the most, the part where I had to go ride the blue streak. The line wasn 't too long so we decided to go. I sat in the car with my sister, which by the way was a little bigger then me, so the bar that came across our lap only went up to my stomach.
Over the summer I traveled to Tennessee to see my cousins. The day we arrived, we visited Lake Winnie, an amusement park with tons of rides with a water park. It was a joyful day. That day I went on the first roller coaster I 've ever been on. While walking nervously up the steps to get into line with my cousin, I felt the adrenaline rushing through my body, and I felt very anxious.
We got on four more rides before we got hungry, so we met up with my boyfriend’s parents, sister and her friend to figure out what we desired to go eat at. We decided to take nourishment at Harmony Hall marketplace. The food was satisfying, I think we all got the chicken strip basket but my boyfriend’s sister got a chef salad and mixed fruit instead. We all wanted to ride one more ride. So, me, my boyfriend Shawn, his sister and her friend wanted to ride the rip roarin rapids.
It was an interesting ride you would never expect was down there. We were on our way to the plane intense was increasing rapidly. On the first plane ride it was just too intense I was so excited everyone was sleeping I was awake the entire ride. The only thing that I had on my mind is me getting there to the hotel. When we were done with the plane ride our first stop was in Texas.
We start to walk out of the Great hall and we head outside and we find our brother and we were so thankful that he made it he didn’t have anything wrong with him. And then we went on a train to go look for a little house that has to bedrooms and one bath and one livingroom and one little kitchen. We had all of our stuff and the lady was asking for 40$ for the place and my father and mother were like ok we will take it. And we went in and there was just the first floor and a basement but the basement was small. And then my mother was like you to have to do the laundry
Everyone was so excited except for me. We went to a roller coaster. I told my mom that I was scared but she told me to try it and I did. And now I’m not scared of roller coasters anymore.
That night, I looked out my window only to see tree limbs whipping around and snapping in half. I was so scared to sleep in my bedroom, I kept dreaming that a tree was going to come crashing into my room and crush me. Instead of sleeping, I stayed up all night with my dad. My dad was always interested in finding out what took out our power, but the conditions were too rough outside for him to go searching through the
Just when we got up close to the front my heart started beating a mile a minute. I was scared, I wanted to go back and not do this. Though I knew waiting 2 ½ hours couldn’t be for nothing so I rode the coaster. It was extremely fun and fast. I loved
We started that jam-packed day with the Batman rollercoaster. The coaster was amazing with its numerous loops, twists, drops, and confrontational speeds. Coasters have never bothered me with heights. After enduring quite a few of rides, it was almost the end of our day. We made our way into the last section of the park and there it was: the most horrific ride of them all.
One of the things in my life that have challenged me is my first time on a roller coaster. It all started when one summer we decided we were going to go on vacation to Salt Lake City. We would try and find an amusement park to go to. We found one named Lagoon. We got there and they had a lot of roller coasters.
" That was the longest long ride for my parents, brother, and my brother's friend. We arrived and the first thing I remember doing was getting a rock and throwing it in the river. My brother and his friend
