We rode rides. My soon-to-be nine year old rode his first roller coaster -- The Steel Eel. The first hill is very steep and he literally looked like he was on a G-Force machine. He was gritting his teeth and his little cheeks were waving in the wind but after he survived the first two, he started laughing hysterically and yelling "wicked awesome!" When he got off, he turned me and said, "I'm a man now". It was truly a moment I will take with me.
