Theme Parks

I love theme parks! I enjoy most of the rides, and I love the Adrenalin rush. I always scream because I'm too excited. Whenever I went, I would want to go a theme park. And compare the theme parks "around the world".

Alpena, Michigan, USA, 2014.

Jakarta, Indonesia, 2013.

It all started when I was ten or younger, I wanted so bad to grow up and go to the "tough rides", they seemed more exciting than the Pirates Ship (or Seahorse, according to the Kuwaiti theme park). I was getting sick and tired of the carousel. 

At a certain year, all the kids' rides were too small for me and I haven't been allowed in the "tough rides" yet. It was the worst theme park day in my life. It was a weird year, honestly. Being in the middle. Not reaching any sides. If someone working in a them park, especially a designer perhaps, why aren't there rides for the in-between-ers? 

When I was in Spain, in 2007 (aged 10), a sort of miracle happened and they allowed me to ride the Tornado (name differs according to each park). My dad was sitting next to me. This was my first experience. I kept screaming "I will fall!! Get me outta here!!". I was actually thin and I frequently slid from the chest thingy. The best thing about this, was that no-one but my dad could understand me! Such an embarrassment... Needless to say that no photos were taken this day.

Discovery ride, Cairo, 2010!

The second experience in Kuwait left me in shock. I was ghost-like when the ride stopped. The third one in Egypt, the Discovery ride, I was also screaming "I'll fall!!". Being skinny and going to theme parks wasn't apparently a wise decision. The same day, I gave Discovery a second shot (the photo on the right). And that was it. It cured me from my fear! A new era has begun!
