I love rollercoasters. Love them with the mad, passionate intensity of a runaway mine train. Love them like Beauty loves the Beast. Love them more than Superman loves the citizens of Metropolis. For the true rollercoaster aficionado, Ohio is the place to be, boasting not one, but two of the world's best amusement parks: Cedar Point and King's Island. However, Ohio being a few thousand miles away, our local Silverwood Theme Park was more than sufficient for a sweet, lazy Saturday of rollercoaster fun with my sister this past weekend -- Katrina/Notes on a Napkin.
DFO: I steer clear of roller coasters because I get motion sickness easily. In fact, I can't remember the last time I've been on a carnival ride that involved something more thrilling than a merry-go-round. I have a rough enough time riding in the back seat of a car. Yeah, I'm a wuss when it comes to motion.
Question: Do you enjoy wild carnival rides?
