3. “AHHH!’’ I could hear the screams as we pulled
into the parking lot of Hershey Park. It sounded like
a horror movie. Soon, my friends and I got out of the
car. I was with Jordan and Marcus for Marcus’s
eleventh birthday party. We walked through the
main entrance, where the employees were like
zombies. They were taking tickets and letting people
pass through. We quickly ran to the line for the
Comet roller coaster, which was old and wooden.
The line was as long as a line for a hot dog at a
baseball game. After waiting for what seemed like
hours, it was finally our turn...
4. The coaster climbed up the tracks, making it to
the top of the hill. We plunged down at an
amazing speed. We rode through a series of
loops, turns, and hills. Unfortunately, it ended
quickly. As soon as we got off, Jordan sadly said: “I
can’t go on another one!” I noticed that he was
turning green and he looked like he was ready to
puke. Since he felt sick, we walked around trying
to find a restaurant. The amusement park was like
a maze, but a million times harder to find places.
We found somewhere to eat pizza, and stopped
there. After eating, Jordan felt a little better, so we
tried to figure out what ride to go on next. We
spotted a big roller coaster called Thunder and
Lightning.
5. The line wasn’t as long as it had been for the
Comet. The sun was about to hug down on the
horizon. Marcus and I were the only ones braving the
ride, Jordan decided to sit this one out. It is one of the
largest wooden roller coasters that has two coasters
that start at the same time and race to the finish line.
Me and Marcus sat in the front. The ride squeaked, and
squealed as it putted up the the tracks. This ride was
insane. It went up, down and all around. I was ready to
vomit, but it was so much fun. As quickly as it started, it
was over. Two minutes of pure excitement. Lightning
finished first gliding to the finish line with Me and
Marcus leading the pack.
6. After more rides we walked around and I had
a Root Beer Float and bought some Hershey’s
chocolate. Soon Marcus’s parents told us we had
to leave. It was a short day but loaded with fun.
The sun was hugging the horizon now. I figured it
was late. The screams were now faint as we
walked out the exit gates. As the car pulled out of
the parking lot I watched the Hershey Park sign
getting smaller and smaller as we made our way to
the hotel.
