Tuesday was really fun; the class was supposed to all go to Six Flags together, but things got complicated and the news wasn't publicized until super late, so I ended up going with three other friends and I think it was just us from WHS that day. Hannah picked me up with her boyfriend, Jeff, and our other friend, Fred, in the car.
We took off towards Six Flags New England and got there around the time it was opening: perfect timing. Although it was super nice and sunny out, it was also a Tuesday, which meant that we basically didn't have any lines to wait in. SCORE.
It was also Fred's first time at Six Flags, so it was fun to introduce him to all of the best rides and places. We took him on Bizarro once, then went on a second time without him (he wasn't as big of an aficionado as we were). We went on a wide variety of rides, from tea cups (with us spinning the wheel as fast as we could...yeah, we're mature) to Houdini's Great Escape (the weirdest ride ever, if you can even call it a ride), and Pandemonium.
One of my favorites was the water ride featuring raft-type floating circles with room for 8 people. I forget the name of it, but it's something about whitewater rapids. Anyways, you get really wet on it, depending on where you sit. We laughed so hard on that one, because some people got completely screwed over while others emerged relatively un-drenched. We also tried the new swing ride, that took you up super high for a great view of the park. It was extremely relaxing, since it was just a gentle swing ride.
All in all, it was an absolutely wonderful day at Six Flags, and a great night at volleyball later as well. I'm so happy I decided to go with my friends. Tuesday of Senior Week was top-notch!
