The Secret Life Of Luz Noceda

Chapter Thirty-Six: Witches at Their First Amusement Park

{Dollywood Amusement Park: Early Morning}

Gus and Vee had stars in their eyes as we all got out of the big van we rented for the week. Today my uncles thought it was time for all the kids to have a day for themselves so they drove us all here to the number one amusement park in the state, Dollywood.

I haven't been here since I was eleven and Lee took me here as a birthday present. I had so much fun exploring the park, riding rides, the shops, and even the cool shows they had. My favorite place was the county fair section, Craftsmen Alley, and the massive candy shop.

'I gotta make sure Gus and Vee don't go crazy at that shop,' I thought while helping the others out of the van.

Once everyone was out of the vehicle, got their VIP bracelet, and made it through security, we all stood in front of the massive fountain by the entrance.

"Okay chicos," Mom starts as she holds up the map of the park," Please make sure to stay grouped up. You all have our numbers on your phones and make sure to stay in the park. So please stay close to Lee, Ana, and Antonio and have fun!!"

And with that, the adults went to do their stuff while we all decided where to go to first. Gus wanted to see the shows, Hunter wanted to visit the Blacksmith area and the sewing shop, and the girls wanted to go on every ride in the park. My siblings and I laughed at how excited they were and I voiced that we pick either left or right and do a whole walk around the park. They agreed readily and as we all started walking, Amity held my hand happily.

"Are their places like this all over the human realm?"

I nod happily," There are a bunch of amusement parks and theme parks around the world. The US is pretty famous for Universal Studios, Cider Point, Six Flags, and my favorite Legoland, but there are other parks in different places like Aquaventure! It is the biggest water park in the world and it's located in the Bahamas, a tropical island that is known as a pretty popular vacation spot."

Amity looked at me incredulously at that which I didn't blame her. Even after being here in the human realm for months, they all are still very cautious with large bodies of water and rain. 

I chuckled a bit as we finally made it to our first ride of the day, the Thunderhead, and everyone looked at it in awe. The rollercoaster was made out of pure wood and the fourth fastest in the park. Willow and Amity were ecstatic and quickly dragged all of us through the fast pass area to get one.

'If they're gonna be like this with all the ride. My stomach is not gonna last!!!'

"Blah," I let my head rest on the table, Gus and Hunter following suit, as the girls were talking about all the rides we went on and the ones we were going on after lunch.

"Hunter..."

He lets out a low groan.

"If I die today...hide my M-rated games."

He turns his head to look at me," Only if you promise to hide my Cosmic Frontier fanfics."

We both nodded in agreement just as my siblings and the girls came back with all our food. We had ridden the Thunderhead, Mystery Mine, Black Bear Mountain, Fire Chaser, and finally, just before lunch we rode the Tennessee Tornado. Of course all at once, we explored each area where the rides were located and the girls promised us that we have a couple of hours to calm our stomachs. Hunter was excited to see all the handcrafted goods and what human blacksmithing was like and Gus wanted to see the Eagle Mountain Sanctuary.
