We have a Paramount Park, Canadas Wonderland - the Rollercoasters are fun, but rather Mickey Mouse compared to the biggest, fastest, and best in the world. Frankly I don't really like Rollercoasters, they bored me. they are fun for a bit, but I dont get the great adreniline rush that some people do. I just don't have any thing to fear on them, so why would I? I don't mind the rides that take you up dozens of stories and drop you - those are pretty good for me cause I hate heights and its like hanging off the side of a building.

Still the ship stays my fave attraction because it's so relaxing :D 2ace2 07-20-2002, 08:32 PM Ah, I love rollercoasters! We're going to Six Flags Belgium next month or so, so I'll get my portion soon enough! I've also been to Asterix Park, but I thought the wooden rollercoaster was more fun than the one with all those loopings. Also Space Mountain in Disneyland Paris is awesome! :D jennifer 07-20-2002, 10:27 PM Colossus :D Berlin_Calling 07-22-2002, 03:13 PM My third fav. I love this one and want to go on it again. the surprise in the beginning, for the people who have been on it if you know what I mean ;) , almost made me cry because this was my first bi coaster.

Very challenging :D irma 07-22-2002, 09:29 PM I almost lost my glasses in the roller coaster last saturday, I just could catch it with my hand. :D wombledonwimble 07-23-2002, 02:23 PM Originally posted by irma I almost lost my glasses in the roller coaster last saturday, I just could catch it with my hand. :D *lol* That would have been awful if you'd lost them! I'm always paranoid that my contact lenses will come out while I'm on a coaster, which is completely ridiculous!:D Berlin_Calling 07-23-2002, 02:39 PM Originally posted by wombledonwimble *lol* That would have been awful if you'd lost them! I'm always paranoid that my contact lenses will come out while I'm on a coaster, which is completely ridiculous!:D I also had that "paranoia" WW. lol, I would go on coasters with my glasses but I was scared to go on the coaster because I though the wind would knock them right out. Of course I was wrong, and now, I dont even think about those things while going on a coaster Alonsofz 04-01-2007, 11:19 PM Old thread!!!!!! :lol: | |
