Roller Coaster

 
Thrills and Chills
Scenario
You are excited and scared as you sit back into the seat. You pull the safety restraints into place. The next thing you know, you are beginning a slow but steady ascent into the sky. Then, with a sudden jolt, you reach the top. This is where the thrill or nightmare begins. You hurtle down the track at ever-increasing speeds. You are flung against one side of your seat as you scream around a curve. You shriek as you hang upside down, fortunately, firmly secured to your seat. All the time, your stomach has no idea where it is or you are. Finally, you come to rest where you began. What a ride! Want to go again?

Roller coasters have been enjoyed for many years. However, the roller coaster that may appeal to you, may not appeal to your parents or other friends and relatives.
