Euro Journal: Day 31 Thrope Park Tue 09 August 2011

Because Kevin was on his holidays, we all went to this theme park called 'Thrope Park' together. The funny thing is that we just watched the ad on TV the day before.

Due to the mild traffic, we got there a bit late at half pass 12. The website suggested a lot of exciting facilities, including their latest feature, Saw the Ride. We decided to do the water facilities first so that we could get wet and change our clothes.

We got on the mildly exciting boat ride down on a slide. It was alright. Then we went on the featured water facility, Tidal Wave. That really got us all drenched but fun nonetheless. After 2 more water ones and got wet over and over again. We changed our clothes and started to go for the 'dry' ones.

The first was, expectedly, Saw the Ride. It was pretty exciting, especially the unexpected drop and turns in the dark. Fun. Alex was a little bit terrified by it after getting on it. So there were only Steve, Kevin and I who went on another thrilling one, Stealth, it was a very short ride but it went really fast and really high.

Before leaving at 7pm, Steve and I got on another two roller coaster rides back to back. The first one was fun but with a little too many turns. The second one was said the fastest indoor coaster that goes backwards. I felt pretty sick after the second one. Backward and back-to-back are never good ideas and combination.
