Hi, Pete!

A person does not 'play' the rides at an amusement park; a person 'rides' the rides'! * When I go to Wonderland, I enjoy the exciting rides. * The roller coaster is my favorite ride. * When I go to Wonderland, I will ride the roller coaster. * At Wonderland, I like to play the games of chance that are designed for young adults.

Cheers,
Amigos4
