A BAD DAY AT MAGIC LANDMany people like to go to amusement parks to have fun, but I don’t! Last year, a group of my friends decided to spend the whole day at Magic Land, an amusement park in my city. I thought I would have a very good time, but I was wrong. I had the worst time ever. We went on too many roller coasters. At first, they were all very exciting and I screamed until my lungs hurt on all of them. My friends wanted to ride more of them, and so for three hours we didn’t stop to rest. We went on the Head Knocker, the Crazy Coaster, and the Monster Masher before I started feeling really sick.
I finally threw up on the Tooth Rattler roller coaster. I was very embarrassed.That was when my friends decided that we needed a lunch break if they wanted me to survive the whole day. My stomach was still feeling awful, but they insisted that I needed to eat if I was going to have enough energy for the rest of the day. When I went to one of the food stands, however, I saw that the prices were outrageous. I spent six dollars on a large order of fries. I picked up the saltshaker, and to my surprise the top fell off, spilling a pile of salt on my food. My fries were
ruined!
By now I was really upset and my face was red, so my friends suggested we go on a water ride so I could cool down. I thought it was a good idea, but when we rode it, I forgot to take my glasses off. At one point, they fell off and into the water. I watched helplessly as they sank to the bottom while we kept rushing forward in our raft. I had to go through the rest of the day practically blind.I have decided that I will never go to Magic Land again, even if someone
offered me a million dollars to do it!
