Theme Parks

Do you enjoy going to theme parks? If so what is your favourite type of ride there. I really like roller coasters, they are so exhilarating. Flat rides just don't do it for me since most of them just spin around, and I hate spinning

I'm not really a big fan of roller coasters. I prefer the big water slides.

They are pretty good! Has anyone else done the log ride cool runnings style?

I love roller coasters

The lines are always very long and annoying though.

As I've gotten older I've found theme parks less and less fun and more and more annoying. Having to wait in line for an hour sometimes just to get on a 2 minute ride is *******. Last theme park i went to was alton towers i found myself spending more time queuing than i did anything else, hated it.

Alton Towers is cool when you go during the kids school term, since there's never anyone there. As long as it's out of season, I think they're great fun.

Same. I've noticed myself starting to resent going to amusement parks.

i dont mind them, last time i went to one it was like 100 outside and 2 hour long lines.
and i havent gone back since because i dont feel like being shot for looking at someone 'the wrong way' lol.

but if i dont have to worry about being shot or dieing from the heat i dont mind it

I love theme parks, and my favorite ride by far are roller coasters. The thrill of them still gets me every single time. I do agree that lines are way too long though. Second from roller coasters would have to be water rides - ones that soak you a lot like the Rapids ones or the Log Flume thing.

I enjoy them, but rarely go.

Last easter actually I was at the easter show in auckland (where I live) and went on a ride that was basically a circular cage that spun... loved that.

Not as bad as stealth when it opened - wait for an hour for a 15 second rise

I rode stealth the other day, the most epic ride I have ever ridden. Fast trak tickets ftw.
