WONDERLAND trip

WONDERLAND

June 11, 2014

Today, I went to wonderland. It was tons of fun! Read on to find out about my adventures!!!

Before, we get started, let me give you a bit of a background. I play a clarinet, i am in the band program at my school. The reason I went to wonderland was to perform with my fellow band students.

All right, now the for the story. I woke up at 6:10, went back to sleep and woke up at 7:00. I took a shower, got dressed, brushed my teeth, and hurried downstairs for my breakfast(7:45am). I had an egg and some roti, plus a healthy glass of milk. Then after getting my umbrella and spraying on some sunscreen i took off with; $27.95, a extra T-shirt, a small towel, an umbrella, a wallet, a bag, my clarinet, my music, a good book and myself(7:58am).

By the time I got to school(8:04am) all the instrumentalists were lined my and ready to board the buses. It took about a hour and a quarter to get there, and we performed right then(10:00am).Soon we were finished and got to watch the strings play, unfortunately, there was only one other school and our own students to watch us perform. But then we got into our groups and headed off to explore(10:45am)

Before we go any further let me introduce our group. Liam, Danny, Claude, Aric, Hardik(me), and Liam's father, Mr.Warks. Liam and Claude went on about five rides, because of "motion sickness" Mr.Warks had to stay with them. Danny and myself went on all the rides, and Aric went on about 60% of the time. 

Instead of talking about all the rides, I will just pick my five favorite rides instead. To make things easier for the both of us.

Boo blaster, leviathan, behemoth, shockwave, dragon fire.


5.  Boo Blaster
                                                                   

 So, Boo Blaster was one of those games where you have a laser gun and you have to shoot it at little blue lights that pop up everywhere. As usual, since my aim is like A+ i got 2,759 points. That was more than the rest of my group combined. And with some modesty, I am a master blaster(1200+ points) all my friends are either blaster wannabees(30-300) or beginner blasters(301-500).However, everyone is good in some areas and bad at others. The high score for the day was 3,2?? and the years high score was 5,3??. Yea, these guys are good. Awesome level 3

4. Dragon Fire

Dragon fire is your average, fast looping, and dangerous rollercoaster. It moves at 50 km per hour and has 2 loops, a corkscrew and a helix. Quick fact, it was one of the original 4 rollercoasters when the park opened in 1981.Awesome level 4


3. SHOCKWAVE

Shockwave 3 
 Shockwave, is the first ride of its kind that I've ridden. It has 6 arms and 5 seats per arm. So 30 seats in total. Riders are lifted as high as 63 feet (19M) in the air and then spun and turned in all directions on the rotating ride spectacular. It feels like you're going to fall because the seat tilts forward and backwards while spinning around at a dizzying speed! Awesome level 5



1or2. Leviathan
Levithan image 3 
The leviathan is the best(tied with behemoth of course)!!!!At 306 feet (93.27M) this is the tallest ride in the Park – towering 76 feet (23.2M) taller than Behemoth, and 5 feet (1.52M) taller than WindSeeker."It's still going up! It's still going up!!! Holy sh!t its still going up!!!!!!!" It has a major drop, unfortunately i only got to ride it once :(
Well..... gotta save something for next time. Awesome level 6_

1 or 2. Behemoth
The behemoth, the best rollercoaster in wonderland until the leviathan.The first drop towers at 230 feet (70.1M) – that’s the same height as Drop Tower! You can tell from the pictures that it isn't for all types of stomachs. I got to ride it 3 times!! And I even scored a second row seat! It was mostly: "The suns in my eye! Wait... why are we slowing down? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!Another hill, finally a bre-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Awesome level 7_


Before I end this post I would just like to share a souvenir I bought at one of 30+ gift shops. Its a quartz stone with a snake carving. It stands for wisdom and honesty.
Bye and thanks for reading.
