Liseberg amusement park

The next day, Friday, Lea and me woke up in the late morning and bought some fresh bread for breakfast. Around noon, we got ready for our mission of the day: testing all the rollercoaster in Liseberg amusement park. The park opened 13:00, so we stood in the line a few minutes before. After buying the all-in-one-ticket and entering, we headed directly to the newest rollercoaster in Liseberg; HELIX. It was quite a long line - about 40 minutes - but we weren't bored. And then it finally was our tour to scream: Helix is probably the longest and most awesome rollercoaster I was ever on. A whole metalconstruction filled with loopings, screws, curves and falls. Passing everything in super high speed. After a ca. 3 minute long ride the adrenaline in our blood made us unstoppable. We screamed and laughed the whole afternoon, testing different rollercoasters, carrousels and other attractions. After a very easy but still extremly funny carrousel, Lea and I were ready to test the ATMOSFEAR: a 116-metre-tall drop tour which lets you fall down 90 metres before the brakes cushion you ten metres over the ground. All way long in the waiting line I tried to convince my brain that this tour only spins a slow round around itself and brings us softly and safely down to earth again. This tactic actually worked quite well and I managed to hold my pulse down on only middlefast speed. On the way up it was getting harder and harder to stay calm, but I still could enjoy the great view from the top. When we were all the way up (146 metres over sea), a woman talked to us via speechers and started to count down from ten: Tio, nio, åtta, sju, sex, fem, ... AAAAAAAH!!! I was glad that she didn't count down all the way to zero, because the time before we fell already felt like forever anyway.
After riding a rollercoaster like Helix and falling down a 90-metre drop tour with a speed of 110 km/h without dieing, it felt like there would be nothing in the world that could kill us. Therefore we decided to go to Helix a second time. If you ever go to Liseberg amusement park; don't miss HELIX! 
A long while later, Lea and me were getting tired so we took the next bus back to Lea's place in Göteborg. Merci für dä Hammertag, Lea! :-)
