Six Flags New England

If you've had your fill of "back to nature", Massachussetts can deliver some man-made thrills too.

Six Flags New England is a medium-size theme park that opened in 2000, with plenty of high-adrenaline rides including some wild coasters.

The park caters to the young set also. For ex., kids and parents can do rides together at LOONEY TUNES™ MovieTown. And kids under 36" are free.

There's also a new pager-type gizmo that let's you make reservations for popular rides. (You have to pay extra for that gadget, though.)
