Are we there yet? Just one more hour. It was a long drive from Dearborn to Sandusky. My brothers were asleep and I was tired. My family was going to Kalahari for the very first time. We were planning on staying in the hotel for one night and one day. I was extremely excited about going because I saw many different rides on YouTube. I was also kind of nervous. It was a nice warm summer day in Sandusky when we had arrived at Kalahari.
At about 11:00 we had gotten out of the car after a long ride. The fresh air smelled rich compared to the air that we were breathing in the car. The first glimpse that I saw of the waterpark was astounding. It was massive, huge, humongous, and larger than any water park that I have ever seen. Once we came my mom

The first ride that we went on was a little kid called the “lazy river”, a ride that was perfect for my two brothers. They both had fun and probably the most fun they had in a long time. After that, we went on my 8-year-old brother favorite thing the shooting star which is just basketball in the water. It turned out that he didn’t like it as much as I …show more content…
I took a hot shower and then my parents and I looked outside the balcony to see the outdoor section of the waterpark and there were lights everywhere. People were walking on the sidewalk and the mix of the night and all those balcony lights was beautiful. My mom gave me another shawarma sandwich for dinner and then I went to sleep.
The next morning we had to pack up our stuff because it was time for us to go. When we put our stuff in the car and got in. My four-year-old little brother started to cry because he loved the slides on Leopard Cove. We had to make him be quiet so my mom gave him a bag chips which worked. My mom also got souvenirs including an elephant bobble head and a Kalahari bell. I had to get ready for another gruesome trip back home. So instead of staying awake and watch all the sites that we were passing I just slept the rest of the ride. At least now I had even more memories to talk about and I learned something new which was that not all things are as scary as they seem to
When I was about 10 years old, my mom took me to a roller coaster theme park in Massachusetts. I was terribly afraid of the huge roller coaster that appeared in front of me, and while I waited in line, the anxiety of waiting to die in a roller coaster made my heart beat through my chest. The huge coaster went up and down and up and down, and even though my mom continuously asked me if I was sure that I wanted to go, I repeatedly said yes. I wanted to make it clear that I was a man, not a crying baby. Stepping onto that roller coaster was what I remember the most.
The Niitsitapi (also called Blackfoot Indians), reside in the Great Plains of Montana as well as Alberta and Saskatchewan located in Canada. Only one of the Niitsitapi tribes are named Siksika, also known as Blackfoot.
Jerry Sandusky, Penn State football coach that was under the legendary Joe Paterno, founder of the Second Mile, a model citizen of his community, convicted on forty-five counts of child sex abuse (Crandall, Parnell, & Spillan, 2013).
When we left the hotel, my parents had a tough time finding the theme park. There were so many overpasses and lanes, my dad missed the exit a few times. Luckily, my dad finally got off at the right exit. When we first arrived, I was so excited. I had never seen so many seen so many people in one place, and the climate was very different compared to El Paso. I remember listening to the roars of the roller coasters and the screams of the people on them. We finally got into the park. As we entered, I remember it being very humid and moist. There were so many different smells coming from the restaurants.
The night after my mom came home, my parents, sisters, and I watched one last movie together. It was great, spending time with my family, but most importantly with my mom. I will cherish every minute I spent with her.
In the first paragraph I will write about the ride to cedar point. In the second paragraph I will write about Cedar Point. In the last paragraph I will write about the ride home.
I remember it like it was yesterday, my family took our first trip to Six Flags Great America. I was around seven years old and terrified by everything around me. The roller coasters were like brobdingnagian snakes that twisted throughout the entire park. My first rollercoaster changed my life forever. I was barely the required 48”, and my dad sat me down on American Eagle. Before the ride I was sobbing, yelling, and scared out of my mind. The lift hill had to be the longest moments of my life. We climbed up the 127’ slower than I thought possible, and then it happened. The car crested over the first hill, and the expression on my face couldn't have changed more. I went from a terrified and mortified child, to a boy who was on top of the world. The feeling of falling down the hill, then climbing up another and entering a helix and the some more
I was smacked in the face by a gust of hot, humid Texas air as I found my way off the bus. The once brisk morning was getting hotter by the second. My friend Kristi and I looked towards our left and there she was, the Norwegian Sea. The cruise liner that we would be on for the next week. It was the biggest ship I had ever seen up close. Ten stories high and nearly 1000 feet long. It had an intimidating presence that took one's breath away.
I went on the fireball ( a circle roller coaster) it was a scary. It was a thrilling and fun type of ride it was like facing dead in the eyes
My dad and sister watched television, my mom crocheted, and I worked on my Kinderbuch for German class. As usual, everyone but me fell asleep. At 10:30, we packed all of our things into the back of the Tahoe and pulled around to he front to return the keys.
Once my foot stepped outside, my hair went poof! I have never felt the humidity in the air before. My dad got our rental car, just cruising along the roads of Orlando. I looked to the right I could Epcot, look to my left was trees, but in the midst of those trees was Downtown Disney. I was official Disney World.
So when I went to an amusement park for the first time in seventh grade I did not want to get on many of the rides. It was not until eleventh grade when I went with a group of my friends to Lake Winnipesaukah that I realized something that my friend told me was completely true. It was a Saturday morning.
When I heard my parents talking about going to Disney World I was so excited. It was a long trip down to Florida and I could not sit still, because I was so excited. We finally arrived that evening and decided to stay in a hotel near the theme park. When it was time for bed I could not go to sleep for a long time, because I was so excited about going at Disney world. When I saw the big mirror ball from the entrance, I was amazed. Disney world had a wide variety of rides. There were tons of rides that shocked me. Some of these rides made you feel like you were riding in a jet because of how fast they were. There was even a roller coaster ride in the huge mirror ball. It was a slow ride, but I still liked it because there was air conditioning inside the ball. We spent all day at the park until we had ridden everything. That night Disney World had a firework show. The fireworks seemed like they lasted forever with the amazing colors bursting in the air one right after another. When the firework show finally ended my parents told me that it was time to leave. I was...
We all ate breakfast at the table outside on our little porch of the condo. After we were done eating we went back inside and got ready for the rest of the day. I really wanted to go snorkeling and see all the turtles and fish so my dad and I did so, but my brother and mom decided not to go snorkeling for some reason, psh crazy people. Right as we got into the water which took some time for me because of the rocks, I was astonished, the water was clear as day and extremely warm compared to the beaches in Santa Cruz.
The lake itself left me in awe. The water happened to be very calm so that it appeared as if it were glass. I was so intrigued by how calm it was that I begged for my parents to give Lexia and I permission to kayak across the lake. They ended up saying yes, so that I would quit bothering them. As we kayaked, our paddles would cut through the water like a knife cuts through butter. Doing this action repeatedly was mesmerizing. The times when we stopped and dipped our feet into the lake, Lexia and I were able to look down at the water and see a good ways down. Although both the mountains and the lake itself brought me so much peace and tranquility, the scent of the Aspen and Pine trees still linger in my
