I’m so not a fan of roller coasters. I’d like to say it’s not because I’m scared out of mind at going top speed upside down on a thin rickety track… but, well, it is. How insane are you people to trust your lives to these things?!? My kids, however, like some coasters. Nothing too crazy, but they’ll go on much scarier ones than I will.
