How To Go To Galleona, Arizona-Personal Narrative

One hot summer day in July, my dad's side of the family wanted to go to Adventureland in Altoona, Iowa. It was a yearly tradition for all of us grandkids to go with just our grandma and grandpa. Usually they went into the park, watched us go on a couple rides,rode some with us, then they would leave the park and go shopping instead.That ment all the cousins got to be in the park alone.
My sister and I loved going on the fast, spinning and exhilarating rides, so her and I went in our separate group. My Sister and I went on the rides we loved such as the Falling Star, the Galleon, and the Space Shot. My favorite part is when everyone would meet up at noon, we would all eat lunch together and then all go our separate ways again.
I remember when

I was just tall enough to ride the roller coasters, I told my grandma that’s the only reason I wanted to go Adventureland that day. Just last year I was too short to ride them and now it was my year to choose what rides I wanted to go on. In my family we always start at the front, make our way back, then go on any rides we skipped as we leave, then the Giant Skywheel is ALWAYS last. First I chose the casual rides that were slow, but fun as well. As we made our way to the back, I chose to face my fear and go on the Underground Railroad, which always scared me. Safe to say I didn’t make it. I closed my eyes the second I go on the ride.
I soon felt my legs shaking as I saw the first roller coaster approaching, the Tornado. It was my first time ever going on a roller coaster. My sister jumped with joy, the Tornado was her favorite. She looked at me and knew I was scared, she told me we would go on this one after we went go on the Outlaw because it was considered an easy first timer roller coaster.
We skipped all the rides and went straight to the Outlaw. We had to wait in line for about five minutes, and all that waiting was for the roller coaster to come back. No one was on this one or in the Water Park or on the better rides. We got buckled into our seats so we wouldn’t fly out. The ride conductor told us a story about the Outlaw and the Underground Railroad and how they connected, I don’t really remember what he said because unfortunately they don’t do that anymore.
The roller coaster cars lunged forward sending us racing towards the first hill. The cars chugged up the hill. I gripped onto the safety bar untilmy knuckles turned white. My sister laughed at me and how scared I was. When we got to the top of the hill there was a short pause. We started curving down the first hill. As we flew down the hill I felt myself being lifted from my seat my body tilting with the roller coaster. I could feel the seatbelt at my knees as I was lifted from the seat in the air. I knew when I got buckled in it wasn’t very tight on me.
Soon I slammed back down in my seat as we carts rounded the first corner. I couldn’t believe it that I was so close to falling out of a roller coaster, and the first one I had ever been on. The adrenaline in me made me scream, but inside I wanted to cry, I was so scared. Soon the ride was over and I ran safely back on land. I told my sister, but she didn’t believe me and still to this day she thinks I’m over exaggerating. I think it was the most terrifying thing that happened to me that I can actually remember.
