Avatar One Roller Coaster Zipline.
It’s unique to SandBox so I throw
caution to the wind and decide to
give it a try.
When I reach the top of the five-
storey Adventure Tower to begin my
ride and peer down at the ground
far below, I have to swallowmy fear,
which is probably par for the course
for anyone flinging themselves out
from such a height. But in the end I’m
glad I shook off the nerves and braved
the 180m course, which zigzags and
dips and climbs. Before I know it,
I’m back on terra firma and raring to
give it another go. And, let’s face it,
getting back up when you’re down is
the name of the game, whether we’re
talking about weekend thrill rides or
life itself.
