The Amusement Park Six Flags New England

What has become of parks in the United States has taken creativity and minimized its possibilities. A child’s advocate and architect, Lady Marjory Allen, commented her thoughts on what parks are like today. “Allen was disappointed by what she described in a documentary as “asphalt square” playgrounds with “a few pieces of mechanical equipment”(Rosin 4).

Six Flags contains rides for kids and adults. My family and I decided to go here. When we got to Six Flags, all you could hear were people screaming and yelling on the rides. That just made you want to go on the rides more. Some of the rides in Six Flags are Acrophobia, Batman, Dare Devil Dive, Georgia Cyclone, Georgia Scorcher, Goliath, Gotham City Crime Wave, Great American Scream Machine, and Mindbender. We went on only some of the rides, because the lines were very long and it was also very hot. We also went to Hurricane Harbor. It is located inside of Six Flags. Hurricane Harbor has a giant wave pool inside. It also has water slides that are closed. The waterslides are called Bonzai Pipelines. It also has something that is called the Tsunami Surge. In this water ride, you sit with three other people in a tube. This ride will spin you 360 degrees. Inside there is also the Paradise Island. The Paradise Island is a playground that has water blasters, climbing nets, and waterslides. If you are in the mood to get drenched, you can go under the enormous bucket of water and when it is full it tips all the way over leaving you all wet. It started to get late, so we decided to start heading to the parking lot. Overall, I had an amazing day at Six Flags over
