We had an adrenalin-packed day out to Thorpe Park on Sunday. All of us were armed with our waterproof clothes as the weather was really terrible – but we soon realised this was actually a positive thing ... It seems British people don’t like to go to theme parks in the rain, so we didn’t have to queue very long for rides, if at all for some!
For many of us, including our Biology teacher Jill, it was our first time to ride a rollercoaster, so with the support of our friends we gave it a go and we were all very brave!
We experienced many different sensations, like G-Force and speed on the white knuckle rides like Saw: The Ride and Stealth where we reached heights of 205ft and speeds of 80mph in only 1.7 seconds! … and absolute fear in the terrifying Saw:Maze which had real life actors jumping out at us in recreations of scenes from the horror films!
After lots of spinning, plunging and soaring, we treated ourselves to some delicious sweets, like candy floss and the teachers were surprised that we were not sick!
We had so much fun that we think that we should go to Thorpe Park every week!
