“Have a blast!” That’s what my father said when he dropped us off today at Boomers. A “blast?” That sounds, like, SO ancient or something! Just the kinda stuff dads like to say. I know he was just trying to be nice. But I was on a date with an older guy. And I’m thinking, “DAD! Have a ‘blast’??!” I didn’t want Jensen to think I was a total loser.
But you know what? I did have a “blast” at Boomers today! That’s the really funny part of it. Too much happened to tell you all the good stuff in just one blog. So I’m going to write about my “Boomers blast” over the next couple weeks. It’s so worth going to this place! I want you to know all about it so maybe you can go there too. Even if you have to go with your parents or with a brother or somebody else you’re stuck with.
I don’t even know where to start my story. It was that much fun! So, well, I guess I should start after Dad dropped us off, ok? I’m with Jensen, one of the twin boys in our school. You remember the twins from last week, right? Remember, we went on a kayak trip and all that? So anyway, today Jensen takes me to Boomers and pays for everything! His brother, Jason, did the same thing with my best friend, Juliette. Was that so cool of them?
So it’s like a double date, really – just the four of us. I didn’t really care where we went with Jensen and Jason. They’re almost 15 and know their way around pretty good. But Boomers is so totally, totally awesome! Great date place! It has a huge wooden roller coaster and that’s the first thing the twins wanted to ride. Of course! Guys! But Juliette was like, “Hmm, I dunno! I’ve never been on one of these things!” I hadn’t either, to tell you the truth. But I acted real brave and pretty soon all four of us climbed into one car. The FRONT car! Gulp!!!
The car starts climbing, climbing, climbing up the first hill. Really, really slow, so it scares you so much. You’re just wondering what’s going to happen when you get to the top and start racing down! I’ll tell you what happens – you drop FAST! Whoa!! You go 55 miles an hour in this roller coaster. Which is fast when you’re falling almost straight down! At least it feels straight down.
But it’s so great too! Up and down hills, sitting way up in the air on just some thin metal tracks. You go racing and tearing around corners and flying down big dips, over and over. I think Juliette was a little scared. I was too, really. But we all four had lots of laughs and fun!! Then after that Jason says, “I know! Let’s go ride the go karts!” And we did. And we also did the bumper boats and batting cages and game room and – I’ll tell you more about my Boomers visit next week. But you just gotta go to this place yourself. Because you know what? You’ll definitely “have a blast!”
