Descriptive Vacation In The Rainforest

Just as I arrived in the line the previous riders were leaving. Before I knew it, the gate had opened and we were getting onto the ride. It felt like an out of body experience. Perhaps that was just my sanity watching in awe from afar. I left my shoes next to my bag inside the gate. I had to stand on my quivering tip toes to get in the seat. With my heart beating out of my chest, the carnival worker buckled us in. Then the operator moved us up about ten feet. I wanted to shout down at them to lower us back down so I could get back to the earth. Adrenaline rushed, palms sweaty, my breath came out in quiet, rapid gasps. I had just opened my mouth to speak, but the worker beat me to

This was it, all my hard work, everything that I had done was for this moment. I was scared thinking if my parachute didn’t deploy or if I didn’t jump far enough from the airplane that I would get smashed into the jump door and sent out spinning. My mind raced through a million different outcomes and none of them seemed good, but I was not going to back down. Readying for the green light, I jumped into stance and swung my static line in front of

¨¨Ahh!¨ Everyone screamed while riding the Texas Giant at Six Flags. The drop was the scariest part and I wasn’t sure I wanted to do it. I was with 2024 a church group that I am in.What really scares me is that I have never ridden on a vast ride before. The ride went up up up and then the cart fell down the drop, it looked absolutely scary. Everyone was telling me to do it so I decided to do it.

When the zip line ended there were two instructors that directed me to a dusty path that lead back to where the group was. When I got back to the group we waited for everyone to finish. When everyone finished, our group then proceeded back to the cabins. Ever since this experience I have learned that fears can be

“Please let me live after this situation!”. Those terrifying words came out of my mouth when I was 115 feet off the ground. I was 12 years old when I paid a visit to Six Flags Over Georgia. There was one particular ride that I had never rode before which was the Superman Ultimate Flight ride. This ride is one of the biggest roller coasters in park, and when riding it you are on your stomach as if you were flying. I was always trying to avoid riding the ride, yet my mother wanted me to ride it with her. We spent 3 hours in the line. While waiting in line, I could feel my stomach turning. The closer we got to the ride, the more nervous I got. My palms were sweaty, my heart was racing, and I could not stop thinking about all the bad things that

Once we all got off the boat, we headed towards the immigration to building, or as I like to call it the "The Cliff's Edge". We walked calmly to the line of the five second check. We had to get a medical check within literally five seconds they would scan us. When it was my turn, my legs and my hands were trembling and shaking to the point I thought that an earthquake was going to open beneath our

It was frightening enough and as my grandmother's panicked screams filled the air I realized they definitely weren’t helping. I began to get scared and that’s when we rolled up a gravel driveway next to a cabin, on the peak of the mountain. The sunset view of the mountains was gorgeous, but that wasn’t all, by the light of a lit-up ferris wheel you could see the beautiful city below. Everyone shouted “we’re here,” and I brought my bags into the

I finally walked through security safely, and caught up with everyone else. It was ultimately time to board and we gathered in a single file line to give our boarding passes to the flight attendants. Stepping onto the plane itself was the world’s best feeling. I could feel my body get tense and my face lit up. We took our seats and with my luck I was stuck with the middle. Due to the circumstances, I dealt with it. Being that it was a 10 hour flight, I needed ways to keep myself occupied. Therefore, I reclined my seat and fell into a gently sleep.

I was standing in line with my sister and cousin waiting to get on the “Viper”. We were at Six Flags having already been in the long line an hour and a half. We all went on our favorite rides, then we decided to go on the roller-coaster. This was going to be my very first ever roller-coaster in my life. Then the roller coaster conductor told us to get on the coaster. I jumped in, put my seatbelt on and listened to the safety precautions. Then the conductor pressed the button and we were off.

I had only two groups ahead of me and then it was my turn to take the lift. As the others ahead got on, I examined the way they mounted the seat. As each seat took off, they would walk up behind it as another seat, without stopping, would scoop them up from behind. Now it was my turn. When the group ahead of me got carried away, I moved up quickly so the seat coming from behind me wouldn’t knock me down. As I watched the seat draw near I noticed there were no seatbelts! How stupid of me. Of course there wouldn’t be seatbelts. Once you finally get to the top, you have to get off quickly otherwise you’ll miss your chance and the lift will take you back down. It was too late now, the seat was right behind me. As it grabbed me from behind, I could feel my board and legs begin to drag across the floor. When I lost contact with the earth, I clung to the side railing as tightly as I could. Every second that passed took me higher and higher. The cable suspending my seat bounced up and down as more passengers were added to the weight of the lift. I looked down and realized I was already about twenty feet in the air. The gravity pulling down on the snowboard attached to my foot felt as if a demon, whose name was Acrophobia, was dragging me down to the depths of

When I got off the plane the first thing I saw was a giant palm tree. It wasn?t like the palm trees you see in pictures. This palm tree was kind of ugly it was about thirty feet tall, the leaves at the top looked like they were dead, and it was leaning to the right. Other than that palm tree it was a beautiful day. It was ninety seven degrees, but it didn?t feel like Minnesota?s ninety seven degrees because there wasn?t much humidity. Before we could leave we had to wait for

It all started when I decided to go to the rainforest to explore new animal species. My helicopter had a random malfunction and fell into into the middle of nowhere, leaving me stranded in the middle of the rainforest. My only supplies that I could find was a single flare shot, emergency food rations and some rope. My first concern is finding water. I grabbed my supplies and started heading down a trail of mud and flattened grass. After about an hour of walking the sun started to set. I noticed a large tree that had huge wide leafs. I could use these leaves and sticks to form a temporary place to sleep. I started to gather up sticks to shape sort of a tipi. Then I laid the large leaves on the top and sides, and put one inside the fort to lay

I was ten, the most terrifying event I had been through was riding the little dragon roller coaster at the fair, but that night changed it all. The fear that started in my head spread like wildfire to the rest of my body from the tips of my fingers to the bottoms of my toes. My heart was racing so fast that it could have beat Usain Bolt in a 100m dash. Stop, drop and roll, three steps that should have come naturally, but instead I froze, looked down at my yellow and black checkered flannel in complete terror, fearing for my life.

Little to our knowledge those tarps were full of water and dead bugs due to the fact that it had been drizzling all day. As we went down the first hill my mom got drenched with water and dead bugs and their bodies. They were all over her. As we got off of the ride the rest of us couldn’t help but laugh at the way she looked with dead bugs in her hair, mouth, eyes, and anywhere else they might have gotten. After my mom got cleaned up as best as she could we continued our adventure.

The night before we began our journey to Orlando, I didn’t get much sleep. My eyes were wide open like an owl most of the night, tossing and turning under my cloudy soft comforter thinking about what awaited me the next 24 hours. I have always been interested about what it would be like to go on a roller coaster, but I hated the feeling of weightlessness like a balloon. I even hated going on elevators, just the thought of all that force sent a shivering sensation throughout my body that made me agonizingly uncomfortable. Nevertheless, there was a roaring lion fearlessness within me that wanted to indulge on this endeavor. In the morning we pack the family SUV as if we were sardines in a can and headed out to Islands of Adventure.
