Have you been to Rainbow's End?

On Saturday, the 25th of September, I went to Rainbows End with my cousins, Auntie and their dad. They took me because my mum and dad could not come because they had to look after my baby brother. When we got to Rainbows End, we waited in the line to give our tickets because I play for Marist which gives me some tickets for free because Rainbows End  sponsors our  Marist Rugby Team.

I also saw Deon, my coach from last year. I showed Xavier's mum and dad where to put the chilly bin because Marist Rugby Team has an assigned place to put our food in. Then I told Xavier that we are going to the Mine. We got on a Minecart and it was scary for Xavier. It was cool that we were almost there that we saw people on the Log Flume and the Invader.

When it was finished, we went to the Log Flume. We had to wait in the huge long line to get on it. Then it was our turn and we went. Xavier got scared because he hadn’t been on it. I like the part when we got to the last activity and we went down, very, very fast! There was a camera there so I smiled. It was fun and then I saw my friend Xavier and he took me to the Motion Master. It was on a scary rollercoaster going to Pirate Island on moving chairs.

Then Xavier and his dad went to the Bumper Boats so my friend and I decided to joined them. We got on and I took the purple bumper boat and charged to bump Xavier and my friend. It was so much fun but then it over quite so soon.

Then Eli got tired so their dad took him home. I was stuck with my cousins and auntie. We went on the Stratosfear. We went on the less extreme and it was a small line and we were next to go on. When we got on, I was in the middle of Xavier and my auntie. I told them to hold tight. It went up high and went down for about 5 minutes. Then we headed to the Invader. The queue looked long but not really.  It was funny while we were in the line because there was a lady holding her phone and taking pictures when she’s not supposed to.

Later on, it was our turn to get on the Invader. I was frightened because I didn’t see any seatbelts and I was worried about our safety. When we got on it I saw that there were some on the back of us. I was still scared that I had to hold on tight as it went extremely fast and I thought that I  couldn’t hold it for too long but I managed until the ride was finished. The last ride that we went on was the Pirate Ship. When we got on it, it swayed left, right, left, right. There was a boy who stood up even if there’s a sign that says, “Don’t stand up during the ride”. So I told the boy to sit down immediately.

Finally, we left and went home. I played a little bit of C.O.D Black Ops 2 ( Means Call Of Duty ) when we got home.

I had a wonderful time at  Rainbows End. I wish I went on more rides but maybe next time when I am bigger or when I am a grown up. Hopefully next year I could go back and have a Go Karting experience.
