Climb aboard Soarin'
The ride begins with riders strapping in to one of three banks of seats with their feet
dangling below them. At the front of the theater is a giant movie screen. When you're
cleared for takeoff, the lights go down and you're lifted high into the air. When the show
begins, you're up in the clouds, soon to swoop down over San Francisco Bay! The chairs
of this hang gliding simulator sway gently as you ride the thermals over various pieces of
California scenery. (The ride was moved to Walt Disney World from Disneyland in Cali-
fornia.)
Adding to the realism is the fact that you'll smell the orange groves and the ocean breeze,
and you'll feel the mist as you dip down over the ocean. Soarin' is truly a unique attraction
and one you need to experience to truly appreciate! There are even interactive games you
can play while waiting in line. Competing against the other groups of riders in various fun
activities sure makes the wait in line go faster!
