DL's Space Mountain is really smooth. Matterhorn and WDW's Space Mountain are rougher. Matterhorn especially. That thing beats me up. I've been on wooden roller coasters in Hershey Park that are smoother than that thing. I'm almost too old for Matterhorn at the age of 20.
No that is the way roller coasters were and we weren't so soft. We were tougher and didn't get all upset when things don't go as smooth as we like. And that goes for more then roller coasters.That's funny! I think because I grew up on Matterhorn, before roller coasters became smoother and better, we simply didn't know it wasn't supposed to be so jerky.
Don't mind at all! We just didn't think she'd enjoy Matterhorn, as we pushed our luck with Big Thunder. She's simply not ready for big thrill rides yet (at least I'm hoping that's the reason). She did enjoy 7DMT, and she loves Test Track/Radiator Springs, so it seems those are her current limits. We did get her on TOT once - you should see the ride photo, though, as it's obvious she was not enjoying herself. But we were proud of her for going on it at least once.
And while we were able to get her on POTC before, once she saw the movies, she refused to go on the ride again. I wonder why?
Yes, definitely questionable parenting on our part letting her watch them, but she did really love them once she got over the initial scariness (we'd tell her when to close her eyes at some parts). But I think Davy Jones started freaking her out as she grew older and the difference between reality and fantasy became blurred.
Ahhh, thanks for the answer. Now I understand. For some reason, I was thinking she was little older.
Ok here ya go. Drapes still not done but only need hems. I'll take pictures when complete.Wow, that's ambitious! Also, I didn't realize that Ikea sold fabric. (I've never gone to Ikea; it's not all that close by so I don't bother.)
The drapes sound very attractive. What a nice project for mother and daughter!
Yep, only 7 years old, but she frequently acts like she's going on 13!
Even though DD just learned today that calamari is squid, she's still eating it for dinner tonight (along with other goodies - I love room service!). Although she drew the line at anchovies.
Oh my. I would have eaten her share if the anchovies...!
I remember that one...!!!
Every now and then, my dad will start going on a rant about how things are now compared to the way they used to be. He'll keep going on and on, and then finally, I'll say, "And that's the way it was and you liked it!"
I remember that one...!!!
The monorail is my favorite non-park ride. That's why I'm planning a day split between EPCOT and MK
