One of the best things to do on a warm, summer day is to pack up your friends and family and head to the nearest amusement park. There, you can spend the day riding rollercoasters, trying your luck at games, and eating all the goodies that amusement parks are known for. I know. I lived in New York City for 10 years. The summer day seems to last forever in that wonderful amusement park atmosphere, and the fun doesn’t have to end there because a trip to the park means coming back home with a lot of souvenirs. New York is filled with amusement parks that are brimming with good times.
