About three years ago was my first time going on the Dragon Coaster at Rye Play land. I had gone with my friends Gianna and Sofia from my swim team. Gianna is a year older than both me and Sofia and she had gone on the Dragon Coaster before and thought that it was really fun. Sofia and I really didn’t want to go on the ride but somehow 2 minutes later all 3 of us were standing in line to the Dragon Coaster.

“I told you guys that I am good at persuading people.” Gianna said.

“Yeah, you’re good,” Sofia and I said at the same time. After about 10 minutes of waiting in line under the scorching sun, it was time to get on the ride that once terrified Sofia and I. 

“Where do you guys want to sit?”Gianna asked us.

“In the middle.” we said together without a doubt. Since each section on the Dragon Coaster only hold 2 people, Sofia and I sat together and Gianna sat by herself in the seat behind us. When we got onto the Dragon Coaster, it was another minute or 2 until the ride actually started. On the first drop Sofia and I screamed,

“AHHHHHHHH!” because we didn’t know how big the drop was so we ended up screaming on the smallest drop. The next drop however was almost triple the size of the first one. This time everyone on the ride either screamed, 

“AHHHHHHHH!” or “WOOOOOOOO! HOOOOOOO!” Sofia and I obviously screamed,

“AHHHHHHHH!” but much louder and longer than the first drop. Gianna on the other hand was screaming,

“WOOOOOOO! HOOOOOOO!” “This is AWESOME!!!” “If you guys thought that was scary, then you are going to hate the next drop because it is even bigger!!!”

“WHAT?!” Sofia and I screamed. The thing that I really hated on the Dragon Coaster was that on every drop you feel like you are going to fly out of you seat because to latch that holds you in isn’t completely pushed against your lap and on the big drops you fly up and hit the latch. Another thing that I really hated was when we go into the dragon’s mouth. It doesn’t sound scary, but what you don’t know is that there was another drop inside the dragon’s mouth and you can’t even see how big the drop is because the inside of the dragon’s mouth is pitch black, so it seems like you just went bind some how. After the dragon’s mouth there was one more really big drop until the ride finally finished. 

“Yes, this ride is finally over.” I moaned.

“Yeah, I am never going on that ride ever again.” Sofia said. Two seconds after Sofia said this, Gianna screamed,

“Let’s go again!”

“NO!!!” Sofia and I shouted out. 

The Dragon Coaster was actually the first roller coaster that I have ever been on and it was a horrifying experience, but after I went on it that first time, I learned that roller coasters aren’t too scary after all and so I started going on more and more roller coasters at more and more amusement parks.
