Soarin over California (November 2006)

ChrisofNJ asked:


Experience Disney's virtual hang gliding as you break through the clouds and fly over the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, then practically dip your toes into Redwood Creek in northern California. Soaring with balloons over Napa Valley is followed by a look at the magnificent California coastline of Monterey Bay. A winter scene takes you flying over skiers at Lake Tahoe (watch for the skier who misses on the jump) and you can smell the fresh pine. Then suddenly it's spring as you glide towards Yosemite Falls, and turn toward Half Dome. Moving to the southern part of the state you'll see and smell some of California's orange groves before flying over one of Palm Springs' golf courses—FORE! It's like a scene from High Chaparral as you fly over horsemen in the rocky Anza-Borrego desert—until you hear the unmistakable roar of the Thunderbirds in a fly-by. Next, glide over an aircraft carrier while enjoying the San Diego city skyline. It's late afternoon when you watch the Malibu surfers before taking a fast flight over the crowded L.A. freeways on your way to… Disneyland! Your journey ends as you fly over the nighttime parade on Main Street just as the fireworks begin over Sleeping Beauty Castle, and gently descend back to the ground.

As everyone has said over and over. It's well worth the wait. It's emotional, and I enjoy hearing the ah's and wow's during filming. I hope Disney never gets rid of this attraction. My favorite attraction of all times.

This is my favorite ride ever! =My favorite part are when the guy hits the golf ball and looks like it's gonna cream you in the head; when the jets fly next to you in the desert; and the part at 3:38 because every single time I get to this part on the real ride, I always think my feat are really going to hit the water.

My favoritest ride! What would be cool if they make update the ride film with the 3D they used in 'Muppets 3D'and make you wear a pair of "safety pilot goggles" which are actually the 3D glasses! That would be awesome!
