Lotte World

This Tuesday, Rosa, Susie and I went to Lotte World- an amusement park in Seoul. Besides this being a Korean amusement park, I felt strange because this was the first amusement park I'd been to in many years. We entered a huge dome with lots of people and lots of fun games and rides. I thought it was a good idea to have an indoor amusement park, but I did think it was a bit too small. We rode the Viking Ship; one of those big ships that rocks back and forth and takes your stomach in and out of your body. Then we did the Giant Drop; very similar to the one at Great America but smaller. The lines for these rides were long, but not as long as Great America. After touring the park for a couple hours, Susie and Rosa told me that this was just the indoor part and that the park had a much bigger, much better outside as well. This was impressive. Kinda like Disney World with as much to look at as to do. We waited in a 2 hour line for the Gyro Swing. This was a thrilling, heart attacking ride. This circle spins in a 360 angle and races back and forth. A few times, my body was lifted from the seat and only the belt was hold me down- Assa (Korean for 'hell yeah'). After dark, we went to a Haunted House. This was unusual. We were seated at a huge dining table and instructed to put on head phones. Then there was a scary sounding Korean threatening me with stuff I couldn't understand. The lights went out, and holograms appeared before us on the table. Technological haunted house- how Korean. I think he ate us, or wanted to eat us, I'm not really sure, but there were a lot of shrieks so it was probably pretty scary if you could understand it. Good times, I was exhausted after 6 hours at the theme park.
