A Little Bit of the State Fair

On Sunday I went to the NJ State Fair. We walked through the entrance booth to see lines of games and rides. We went over to one of the ticket booths and bought some tickets for rides and games. The first ride we went on was this mini-roller coaster. It was dragon themed and had a bunch of twists and turns. I rode in the front. At some parts it felt like the roller coaster was going to fly off the track! Soon the ride ended, so we went to the next. You lay down on this massage chair, and start to spin around. It lasted for a really long time. When we went on, the ride was empty. Soon the line started to grow, and grow. Nobody wants to go on an empty ride, but if people are on the ride, it will become popular. After the rides we started to walk around. There was this place with a stable and about 30 horses. People were giving the horses baths when we came.  Soon, my family and I got hungry. We walked over to the isles, and isles filled with food stands. I went to a Greek place and got a Gyro. Yum!


After lunch, we had to go soon, so my dad said each of us could have one more ride. I picked the biggest one in sight...The Fireball. A complete loop, in which you would stop at the top. It looked scary. That is why I chose it. The man strapped me into a seat, and soon I was off. At first the ride wasn't so fast. But it started to go faster...and faster...until it reached the top of the loop! And it stopped. I was horrified. Hanging in the seat upside down. What was only a second felt like eternity. Soon the ride went back down. Gradually getting slower and slower. Soon it was over. I felt sick. While I was on that ride, my sister had gone on one of those pirate ship rides that goes back and forth. She was as scared as me.

The NJ State Fair was a good experience. I had a great time there. It is still open too. You should go!
