Summer Vacation: Amusement Parks and Roller Coasters

Hurry, Hurry, Hurry! Step right up to our discussion of that great American summer time tradition, the amusement park, and the roller coasters that thrill us and scare our pants off at the same time. But first, space balloons, super assassin stunts, the International Friendship Exhibition, and America’s deadliest water park. Keep your arms and legs inside the ride vehicle and win your sweetie a kewpie doll, it’s time to hit the trail with the Gold Key Adventurers Society!
