I have conquered King Da Ka!

Last Friday I went to Six Flags with my class and I had an amazing time. I was in the Roller Coaster group which consisted of 5 of my other classmates as well as our guidance counselor, who is obsessed with Six Flags. We left at 8:30 and got their at 9:45. We got our tickets and headed for King Da Ka. We decided that it would be best if we went to the most popular ride first and then worked our way down. The crazy part about it was that none of us had ever been on the ride, and My two best friends Wilfredo and Jean Carlos had never been on a Roller Coaster their entire life. When we were driving in the bus and King Da Ka came into view Wilfredo saw the test run for it and said "Hell no"!. Jean Carlos and I eventually persuaded him to get on it and we got in line. When I got on I got a chill down my spine like none other. After about 30 seconds of waiting the Roller Coaster started to move very slowly. We went about 15 feet and to build excitement for the ride the Six Flags employees let you wait for about 10 seconds then BOOM! It was like getting rear ended in a car, our heads shot back and we shot off, we started building speed and approaching the hill and honestly I got scared. We sot up the hill and I thought I as going to die. We were going around 100 mph and then we started to slow down at the top of the hill then you sort of linger at the top for about .1 second then you shoot down at 128 mph and you thing your going to hit the large blue pole that is holding up the ride but obviously you don't. I could see the while park from the top and it was AWESOME! I was so scared going down, my friend Jean Carlos had his hands up but that was too much for me. Ill write about more of the trip later, im going outside.
