The Breakdown!

We were all soaked! We just got off at Splash Mountain., but it felt somewhat refreshing.

“Do we have any more Fastpasses?” I asked.

“YES!” said my mom.

“What do we have for a Fastpass?”

“We have Big Thunder Mountain, but it’s across the way.” We all went to Big Thunder Mountain. We were at the ride and we had our Fastpasses on our wrists. We call them our magic bands on the bar.

“Look, there is no line.” Now, I guess we can just get on the ride. Soon a cast member came over to us.

“How many people are in your family?” the cast member said.

“Five people.”

“Okay, then go to rows 10, 9, and 8 please.” Then the brown and red train shaped carts came. My sister and me got in one together and my mom rode by herself and my dad and brother went together. We got on.

First, we started to go in the bat cage, which was up a hill. It hurt our ears because it was very loud.

The ride curbed from side to side. Up and down hills and curbed to the other side again and stopped. Wait, this is not the end of the ride. We waited and waited. Then we heard the speakers say. “Stay seated we will try to attend you soon.”

“I guess it really is a broken railroad.” We sat and talked and sat and played some “rock, paper, scissors, shoot!” Everyone with a phone took pictures of the beautiful view.

“Look everyone is pointing at us.”

“Now look everyone left the line.” said my sister.

“Oh, no,” I said.

“Look two cast members are coming,” said my dad.

“We will start from the bottom and lift up all the bars.” Soon enough we all had to jump onto the stairs. We all walked back to the front of Big Thunder Mountain.

“Can I get a picture?” said my mom.

“Okay,” said my sister. My mom took the picture right in front of the Castle and Dinosaur Bones. We had to walk up some more stair cases. We were finally there.

“Here is a another Fastpass,” said the cast member. “Hey you get two because it is your birthday.”

“Can you give him one too, so he has someone to go on rides with?”

“Sure!”

Then everyone was gone.
