Falling Down the Rabbit Hole of Sydney’s “Wonderland”

Ihave always loved theme parks and the unique thrills and opportunities they offer. As a child who spent all their life in small rural towns around New South Wales, it was always a joy for me whenever my parents had the funds to take the family on a roadtrip to Queensland to spend a weekend visiting the big four theme parks on the Gold Coast: Movie World, Sea World, Dreamworld & Wet N Wild. I loved the atmosphere of the parks, the immersive and colourful theming, roaming the streets alongside Scooby-Doo and the Mystery Inc gang, the tears of laughter that rolled down my cheeks as I rode the Superman Escape with my Dad — a lot of my favourite memories from childhood were had at theme parks. As I got older, I developed an interest in the park’s individual histories and the way their rides worked. For a while, I actually wanted to work as a rollercoaster engineer — until I realised how much mathematics was involved and opted to stick to writing. <a href="https://medium.com/@makahley/falling-down-the-rabbit-hole-of-sydneys-wonderland-68eeda8ed0f8">Visit Now</a>
