Amusement Parks

I love to visit amusement parks and ride the roller coasters and carousels. This page contains information about parks that I have visited. My favorite amusement park is Knoebels in Pennsylvania, my favorite roller coaster is the Vortex, and my favorite ride is the carousel.

Favorite Amusement Parks I’ve Visited:

Disney World, Universal Studios (Orlando, Florida) - I went here when I was 2 and 3 years old. My favorite ride was the Golden Carousel at Dinsey World.

Kings Island (Cincinnati, Ohio) - I have visited this park several times and enjoyed riding the carousel and the roller coasters

Coney Island (Cincinnati, Ohio) - I like to swim at Sunlight Pool and ride the rides too.

Cedar Point (Sandusky, Ohio) - I visited this park in the summer of 2006. We stayed in a cool hotel that had an indoor water park called Castaway Bay. My favorite ride was the carousel which was built in 1912.

Dorney Park (Allentown, Pennsylvania) - I went to this park several times when I lived in New Jersey. It had a great band organ on the carousel.

Hershey Park (Hershey, Pennsylvania) - I really had fun at this park. It even had a chocolate factory.

Knoebels (Ellysburg, Pennsylvania) - This amusement park was my favorite. Catch the Brass Ring on one of the largest and oldest Carousels in the world!

Six Flags in New Jersey (Jackson, New Jersey) - This park had a very old carousel.

Seaside Heights Boardwalk (Seaside Heights, New Jersey) - This amusement park was located near the beach. It had 3 carousels and one had a band organ.

Kennywood (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) - My favorite ride was of course the carousel with the band organ. This park also has a big log flume.
