…So tired…such a long day
TIRED
But I thought I’d be a dedicated blogger and now I can sit on my bed and tap away I figured I might as well blog about my wonderful day at Thorpe Park with James, Tom and Laura.
So yeh, we didn’t get to drive down, but I guess the point is more that we got to go, so that didn’t really matter and there were loads of junctions and stuff that we had to avoid due to accidents and traffic so I was probably way less stressed as a result.
We went on Zodiac, Nemisis Inferno (twice), Samuari, Vortex, Slammer, Stealth…and two other rides which I don’t remember the names of…anyway, they were all lots of fun and I’m actually a bit proud that I went on them all seeing as I don’t really like the rides that are all spinny, and Vortex (as the name would suggest) and Slammer are pretty much the epitome of the spinny swoopyness that I find most scary. Although I was pretty much forced on to them under the threat of leg breaking so I guess its really not that much of an achievement when you consider the alternative.

At lunch, I had fishcakes (yummeh) but after that, I seem to have got painful raw patches on the roof of my mouth that made talking a little painful (and later on made me sound stupid because I was trying to avoid touching the roof of my mouth with my toungue, after a few hours of active toungue poking in my usual manner of refusing to just leave things alone - when will I learn?) So I was less than impressed because I do like to talk.

My favourate ride was probably Nemisis or Stealth - Nemisis has always been a favourate when I’ve been on a few school trips in the past, and I really enjoyed the shock and rush I got from the increadible speed Stealth reached in such a short amount of time. Highlight of the day was going on Vortex after an hours que of being terrified (with the comforting words of Tom ringing in my ears “Your head is going to explode!”) and then actually finding it not so scary after all. Another achievement against the demon of fear!

So good times were had by all.
I’ll say goodnight now before my sleep deprived mind wonders off topic.
Love Kat
