HELLO!
Yesterday, I went to 読売ランド with my friend from Junior High. 読売ランド has many fun attractions, but our main purpose to visit the amusement park was to BUNGEE JUMP!!
Did you know that the ONLY place in Tokyo where you can bungee jump is 読売ランド?
Anyways, the 22m climb up to the jumping platform was SCARY! My legs were trembling(登っている間、足がぶるぶる震えていました)
Once I got to the top, all I had left to do was jump! However, its more like DIVING than JUMPING (「飛ぶ」っていうよりも、「飛び込む」って感じなんですよね、バンジーって!)
It was frightening jumping off the platform, however, once I did it and I felt that I was hanging from a rope, I was SO relieved!
After I finished, I felt so brave and cool! I bragged(=自慢した)to all my friends on Mixi, Facebook, and Twitter! However, some of my friends told me their bungee jumping experiences, and I had one friend who did from 50m, and another friend who did it from 123m! WOW! They made me feel like such a loser! hahaha :)
After bungee jumping, we rode on some other rides. One of my favorite rides in 読売ランド is the roller-coaster BANDIT! 読売ランドのバンデット大好き!!BANDIT is the biggest roller coaster in the amusement park. It is the 3rd scariest. (読売ランドで3番目に怖い絶叫マシーンが、このバンデット!1位はもちろん、バンジージャンプ!!笑)
Because it is summer, there was SPLASH BANDIT, which is when some people are waiting down below with water guns and attack you with them while you are riding!(夏になると、バンデットのスプラッシュ版があるんです!スプラッシュ版=下で水鉄砲を持って構えてる人がいて、乗ってる間に水鉄砲で攻撃されるバージョン)
We rode Splash Bandit 2 times and got all wet!! びしょぬれになり、、化粧もぐちゃぐちゃになりました!笑
Anyways, yesterday was such a memorable day!
Ill never forget it!
Its the first time in a long time that I did something as spontaneous as Bungee jumping! I gotta try more outrageous stuff like that!
Tomorrow I am going to Iidabashi again!
My friend is visiting Hosei University!!!
