Busch Gardens

After a week of exhausted lectures,happy hours finally came~! Wu~hoo~~
Saturday was really a nice day with genial sunshine and gentle breeze.We headed for Busch Gardens at 9 in the moring.
When we were getting closer and closer to Busch Gardens,we saw the terrific roller coasters going up and down.Girls began to scream.It was crazy.
I have not been to a theme park since I was graduated from primary school because I had to study hard for the the university entrance exam in middle school like most of the Chinese students.And Busch Gardens made me pick up lots of simple and unaffected moments in my life.
Erik,Annie,Cindy,Vivian and I started our tour in Ireland.We entered a castle called Corkscrew Hill which we thought was a ghost house at first,but finally turned out to be a 4-D simulator.It was just the same as the 4-D movie that I had seen in China before.

Then we came to the most exciting roller coaster in the park----the Griffon.When we were still miles away from the roller coaster,we were able to hear the screamings coming out from the perpendicular part.I have never been on a roller coaster before because I am so scared of the centrifugal force,especially when the train is coming down from the top.I was kind of unwilling to get on the roller coaster at first,however,I was not reconciled to paying the ticket for waiting under the roller coaster and keeping the cameras or something else for my friends......So~I made up my mind to have a try finally.
When the roller coaster began to move, my heart was beating faster and faster.I began to question myself why I got on this damn train......Suddenly it dropped from the top and I was so scared that I kept my eyes closed during the whole process.It felt like that I was being thrown from one side to another.Finally, I survived.I was proud of myself and from then on I would no longer be afraid of roller coasters.What a great breakthrough!

After the Griffon I tried other two roller coaster----Le Scoot Log Flume & Alpengeist.They were no so thrilling as the Griffon and I became to enjoy myself. See, I was making progress.^_^
Then we went to Carousel and picked up the happiest memory in our childhood on the rocking horse.
Time was far not enough for having fun in Busch Gardens.We had to take the cable back to England when it was getting close to the departure time.
Sincere thanks to Erik for being a tour guide for us so that we were able to save our time in deciding where to go and how to get to the exact places we wanted to.^_^
