Six Flags Great Adventure Amusement Park


I’m not much of a traveler, but amusement parks are the exception to that rule. The best park I’ve ever been to was Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey, back when school trips were the only way I could get anywhere. Being a school trip, I had to go with a group, but surrounded by 9 friends, that park became our playground. A haunted house, a kiddie roller coaster (because we were the kind of kids who thought we were funny doing things we were too old for), and then the first roller coaster ride in my life. What a rush. The first roller coaster I ever rode was the Bizzaro, a superman themed coaster with hot air jets, insane turns, and face-battering wind speeds. It was honestly the biggest adrenaline rush I’ve ever felt in my life, and it got me completely and totally hooked on roller coasters.
It’s funny the things peer pressure can do, in a good way. I spent the whole trip to the park stressing over how much I wanted to stay away from coasters, just check out the souvenir shops while my friends rode. Then they got me to follow them to Bizzaro. Then Skull Mountain. And then, the biggest of all: Nitro. The only thing I refused to do on a coaster was go upside down, and Nitro fit the bill. The huge downward force though… my hair is buzzed, and it was still windblown. And that is why it was my best trip ever.
