Oh boy....I think I'm rethinking this one now.
My fear of heights is pretty bad. There used to be this bridge I absolutely panicked everytime I drove across it. Over the years it's gotten much easier. On an older post, someone said the different heights for Soarin were something like 50 in the top...I believe 30 in the middle and 15 on the bottom row. Some of the "up close and personal" projections kinda made me dodge and close my eyes from here at my computer desk.
Not sure how I'm going to do with that where I don't have the stability that I do now in a none moving chair. It was said to ask for the bottom row and to sit somewhere in the middle. If I'm scared, my son will be too. In times like that, he feeds off my emotions. Our friends won't be with us that day, so he won't have someone else to pull his focus, so I have to be the "adult" one and reign in my emotions.
You guys have NO idea how much that amused me to type thinking about me on Soarin'....panicked and nervous and wanting the ride to hurry up and end.
He'd be okay if I changed my mind about it. So long as he rides Test Track and Spaceship Earth (one of the dark rides he enjoyed during his nothing dark please years) he's good!
Oh and Figment too. He's got this thing about purple dragons. I guess since my husband owns a stuffed one...that might be it!
So let me hear from the amazing DISers. I know in the end, I am the ONLY one who can determine what I can handle. If our friends were meeting us that day, I think it would be easier because I'd have them to "talk me through it". I could ask them to join us, but the husband would have to take an extra day off work and I don't want him to that just because I'm a big ole baby!
