Magic Mountain

I know I haven't made a blog entry for a million years, it's just that there's so many other things to do. I apologize to anybody who might be reading this. Yesterday Dad and Ruth and I went to Magic Mountain. I had a very good time. It was basically the first amusement park I've ever been to, unless you count the time we went to Disneyland when I was 3. The first thing we did was bumper cars, and and it was so empty at first that when our turn ended we just started a new turn without getting out of our bumper cars. Then we did Superman, which is a roller coaster that just goes straight for a little bit and then goes up really high, and then goes backwards once it gets to the top. It was very noisy. We also did the Gold Rusher, which was the first roller coaster that I've ever been on that didn't just go straight, and the first one that we went on that went upside-down was the first roller coaster that ever went upside-down. (It was called the Revolution) We also went on the log ride and the other log ride that you don't ride in log-shaped cars, both of which had a big drop at the end where it takes your picture. The big roller coasters that we went on were Viper, Goliath, Scream, and Batman. We went on Viper twice, and I liked the second time better. Goliath was HUGIE, and it had a REALLY HUGIE drop that went into a underground tunnel at 85 miles per hour. We went on Scream later in the day, when I was more used to the roller coasters, so I didn't scream very much. My least favorite parts of the hugie roller coasters were the parts where you went slowly up higher and higher and higher and you knew you were about to go on a hugie drop. My other least favorite parts of the roller coasters were the twisty upside-down loops that went slowly and you felt like you were going to fall out. Oh, and I forgot to tell you, Dad didn't notice the part on Goliath where you go underground because he was closing his eyes. And another thing I forgot to mention was on the ride called ninja we were waiting in line behind this girl and her dad, and whenever the recording of the guys voice said "Have a fun ride on Ninja. Hiyaah!" the girls dad said "HIYAAAH!". When we got on, the recording said "hiyaah!" and the guy said "HIYAAAH!" and the workers said "hiyah!" and the guy said "HIYAAH!" again. I bet that girl was embarrassed.
