Message of the Day – Hanging Out

January 09, 2009 By: Cal Skinner Category: Disney World, Fast Past, Ferris Wheel, Hanging Out, Message of the Day, Soarin'

One of my son’s favorite rides at Disney World is Soarin’.

Oh, the wait is long, even with a Fast Pass, but my 11-year old thinks it is worth the wait.

It’s a simple ride.

You get strapped into seats and then each row is lifted in the air 15 to 20 feet.

In the beginning, it feels something like a Ferris Wheel as it is loading or discharging new riders. You rock back and forth until the row stabilizes.

You’re just hanging out like the photo above.

Then, there is a movie complete with smell-o-vision of orange groves, evergreen trees, diving above white water rafters, above the San Francisco Bay Bridge and other West Coast attractions, including, of course, Disney Land.
