Summer Memories 2
I used to go to summer school as a kid. Though that may sound boring, in actuality it was like a day camp.... with some educational things added in because it was still school. I still had fun though with numerous field trips, movies, and other activities. Probably my favorite one is going to the local theme park called Seabreeze. It's both a water park and a theme park. As a kid I enjoyed the water park part of the park as a way to cool off though as I got older I started to enjoy the theme park side of it more since I turned into more of a thrill seeker. It's home to The Jack Rabbit, a wooden roller coaster that still operates to this day. A favorite of mine that was called the Quantum Loop since it was my first looped roller coaster, The Gyrosphere which is a scrambler ride inside a building with lights and music, and The Screaming Eagle was one that I didn't go on until I was a bit older since it was a ride that would keep you restrained on an arm and spin you for a few loops. Three going one way and three going the other. When I first went on it the teacher next to me used to scream the whole time. At the water park I went on two water slides, The Vortex which was enclosed and The Riptide which was open air. After that I went to The Wave, a wave pool that can make waves up to four feet tall. I used to jump as they came for fun. I also enjoyed The Lazy River. My friends and I would try to bump each other into the falling water effects. Afterwards we would go onto a few of the roller coasters to dry off. Other things that we did in summer school were parties, trips to museums and trips to movie theaters.
