Great Escape

Physics Day at The Great Escape! Yays!

Mr. Welch is a really cool guy when he's not teaching. He bought our tickets, and he bought us dinner at the Roma. Thank you Mr. Welch.

It was a lot of fun. I went on the Comet. That was 1min and 22secs of pure terror. I know. We timed it.

There were these little caterpillar things that hung from by invisible strings from the trees, and Ryan would go up to them and pretend like he was making them levitate.

Ryan:*Holding caterpillar* I shall call him...Clem. *Proceedes to chase Kathryn with caterpillar*

Mr. Welch went on an awful lot of rides for an old guy. And we went on so many because there was NO ONE THERE. I waited like 10 seconds to get on the Comet, and it took us longer to walk to the bobseld than the ride was, but there were NO LINES ANYWHERE!!!

MEMO TO US: Go to The Great Escape in late May...

I love the Rainbow. Did I mention that?

Me: If Ryan tries to put Clem on us, we'll have to beat him with sticks...
Kathryn: Did you say we'll have to eat him?
Me: No. Beat him. (I love Kathryn because she has no idea that the phrase "Eat him" is very very dirty. Her mind does not work like mine.)

And then it was very scary because all of a sudden after dessert I felt really sick, and on my way to the bathroom everything got all spotty and I got really hot and broke out in a sweat and it was bad. Then I sat down for a second, and it all went away. It was really freaky.

But it was a good day.

Current Mood:
surprised

I forgot you were going to the Great Escape...

Until you've been on a roller coaster that has a fall of 300 feet and hits 90 miles an hour, going through tunnels, and at that point in time (2000) it was the highest roller coaster in the country, you can't be scared of the Comet. Oh god was that an awesome coaster.

My only problem is that The Comet jerks you around and since it's wooden I feel like if some little kid pulls out a screw it will fall to the ground in pieces.

Horray for timing it! That's cool.

Ryan is awesome. I shall call him...Clem. ~ this makes me think of Finding Nemo (best movie ever!) "I shall call him squishy and he shall be mine!"

Oh I LOVE when there are no lines. It doesn't matter how good or bad the park is, I love being at one ride and just like "Again, again!".

OMG the phrase "Eat Him!". Memory: In seventh grade we had reading partners in the first grade and we put together a little picture/coloring book with our own illustrations. So everyone drew dinosaurs and flowers, and I did something with text reading "Go read a book." So in an effort to send a positive message to young children, Danny Howe drew a steak with the sentence "Eat Meat!". None of us knew the meaning back then, and apparently when the teachers were going over it too see what it should look like, one of the pervy first grade teachers was HORRIFIED and wouldn't let the page be printed. She told the kid and tried to avoid explaining it. However, being nosy, we all managed to pry it out of her. It was quite hillarious. Especially considering that we were like all little twelve-year-olds. Yeah. Then I found five dollars.

Listen You Crazy Crack Head You

I can be afraid of anything I want. Especially roller coasters, of which I had never been on any with a big drop until yesterday. So there.

And I think Ryan was trying to be like Dory.

And I love you and your random memory.
