why you need to visit water park

What makes it even better is that I should have been at work.

You might be wondering, what good reason does an adult have to be at a water park on a weekday?

1. You’re in a state of childlike happiness.

When did we become so serious?

Why is it more fun to discuss politics at an expensive restaurant than to go on a water slide?

Kids are smart. They know what is fun and they know how to be happy. A water park is the ideal place to learn from the best. Stop being such an adult. Grab a rubber ring and head for the biggest slide you can find.

2. You’re freed from your work clothes.

There, I said it. It doesn’t matter if your suit’s from Walmart or Savile Row. A bathing suit is always more comfortable—and you can get it wet. Isn’t it nice to get drenched and not have to worry?

3. You let go of your inhibitions.

You are never more real than when you’re hurtling down a super-steep water slide.

You can’t be yourself. It feels great.

4. You can scream your head off.

On the scariest slides, you probably feel like screaming.

It’s okay. You can. Nobody will think you’re weird.

Find the steepest slide you can, feel the drop and start yelling.

5. At last, you win the water slide race.

Almost every water park has the slide were 5–10 people can race at once—and it’s always the heaviest kid who wins. But now, you’re an adult. You are the heavy kid. You absolutely decimate the opposition.
