🌈Rainbows End Trip Reflection🌈

🌈Rainbows End Trip Reflection🌈

IALT: Reflect about my time at Rainbows End!

On Tuesday we went to rainbows and I was very excited because I LOVE Rainbows End and I was excited to go on all the rides with my friends. I was overflowing with excitement!

We were lining up at the Invader with my group Hevani, Grace, Stephney, Syraiah-lee, Lydia, Coralee, Carra, Fine and Ms. Ashley. We first decided to go onto the Invader. We were waiting with some of our other friends in other groups such as, Leilani, Kensington, Perenara, Arizona and Aletheia but unfortunately they didn't make it to hop on the ride with us because they were too late to join on when we were on. I was on the seat looking out and were ready to let loose for when we go spinning and up and down. The next ride we went on was the Rollercoaster because we wanted to try hop on before the lines got too packed, we all got to the Rollercoaster and I was excited and ready because in my opinion I don't really think that a rollercoaster is a scary ride. I liked going on the loop on the rollercoaster because you went upside down!

Fast forwarding to the next ride we went to the Log Flume and I can most definitely say that the Log Flume was the LONGEST LINE! It took for ages to get to the front of the line but sooner or later we were there. Since the maximum of the Long Flume was 3 it was Hevani, Stephney and I and Grace and Lydia in the other Log. I hadn't been on the Log Flume in a long time so I forgot how steep it is to go down the waterfall but I was ready to get scared and excited. There were many things in the caves like pirates, animals and Skeletons so it was very surprising. After the Log Flume we rushed straight forward to the Power Surge because as soon as we got in the line for the Log Flume the Power Surge opened up so we were determined to go there. When were waiting in line it took quite a while because everyone else saw that the Power Surge was opened so they rushed there too because I guess that ride is pretty popular. I was sitting with Stephney because why not? It was very funny watching other people reactions because I saw some people closing there eyes, calling for there mums name and some just laughing. I thought that the Power Surge was a lot of fun but I wouldn't put it onto my favourite. After the Power surge we just had a light snack but I just had a little bit of water and some candy-floss because I was very eager to hop onto the next ride.

We were FINALLY heading over to my FAVOURITE ride after morning tea and we want onto... THE STRATOSFEAR!!! The Stratosfear is my favourite ride because although I am petrified I know that I will be there with my friends and we will do this ride together! I decided to sit next to my friends and my cousin Syraiah-lee because I have not spent that much time with Syraiah-lee ever since we were in different classes so I thought this was the perfect opportunity to hang out with her more. Syraiah-lee and I went onto the Stratosfear and the Bumper Boats together because we were very excited to hang out together. I was not so happy with the Bumper Boats because not only did I get splashed and bumped by people but 2 people had splashed into me at the same time so water came to cover my whole body leading my uniform, hair, and body wet; I was soaking! After I dried off a bit we had gone to the Fearfall (The most scariest ride in my opinion), and while we were waiting in line we had seen some of the yr 8 and 6 boys go into the line so we decided to just hang out with them until as soon as we were about to go onto the Fear Fall Syraiah-lee went to the bathroom but I was already on the ride before I noticed, all I could think was;
"That sneaky girl!". We once again hopped onto the Stratosfear but still with the boys and Samson and I was really excited to see there reactions because I didn't know if they were going to be scared, brave or just laughing. In the end of the ride I had discovered that Demetrius was screaming, Toma was Screaming and Laughing and Samson was screaming.

I was so happy that I had the opportunity to go to Rainbows End for being a Student Leader and a patroller. Now I cannot wait to go next year with hopefully some new people who would like to take a bit of responsibility and be able to go to Rainbows End next year!
