A place in Ohio. Cedar Point. It's nick-named, "America's roller coast." It's the one on all the rollar coaster documentaries. It breaks all the records and stuff like every year... and it has the most rollar coasters of any park in the world ever.

I don't care for Disney Land, but I do like Disney World. Vast difference between them.

^Not a lot of people know that. I've even spoken to some Americans who aren't even aware of the difference. Interesting.

My favourite theme parks aren't listed. They are Drayton Manor and Alton Towers, here in England.

Depends on why I'm going...

Alton Towers is my favourite for rollercoasters. I haven't been there for a few years though.

MetroLand is my favourite for a family day out. It's indoors, so we don't have to worry about the weather, we have VIP cards, so we get in half price, and there's a playarea for Sammie while the older kids go on the rides. It's also a busride away, so there's less worry about travelling. I sometimes take Sammie by herself just for the soft playarea (�1.95 for the day, coming and going as we wish- not bad )

Seaworld is EVIL. It is so wrong to put whales and dolphins in little pools and make them do tricks. "Come for a day of family fun and animal exploitation!" So wrong. Then people are like, "I wonder why killer whale fins bend over in captivity?" Well, have you ever thought it's because they're not supposed to be put in captivity. Gees, some people . If I want to see a killer whale or dolphins, I'd much rather see them in the wild.

Our school doesn't do trips to Alton Towers, because to get the most out of a trip there (from here) you have to go up the night before and sleep in the travel inn round the corner from the park. Down south, we all go to Thorpe Park, which has gotten really good in recent years. Vortex is the best ride ever!

^^^I love it when the rides break down and your on them. Oblivion broke down when I was on it when it dangles you over the edge. What a titter that was.

Alton Towers has got to be the best theme park in the world. It's just fantastic.

My favorite ride at Six Flags is still Viper. I love that ride I have been on it 3 times.

The one ride I will never ride on is superman because a girl died in that ride last year so I think I will stay away from this ride.

The most hurtful ride at Six Flags is the ninja because it bangs your head side to side on the restrain like crazy.

I can't say which is the best, I haven't been to all of them, especially the ones out of the US. I'd say Disney World is my favorite though. I lived pretty close to Cedar Point, yet I never went. Silly me!


I also love two little ones I went to as a kid in New Hampshire. Santa's Villiage and Story Land. I'm surprised T didnt say Santa's Villiage since it's theme is Christmas. Story Land is all themed around Fairy Tales. We used to go every summer, now we just take other people's kids. Gotta have a reason to go ourselves
