Soarin’ is so amazing. It isn’t a roller coaster or a rough ride like Test Track or Mission Space. As you enter the building, you feel as if you have just entered an airport. The Imagineers have based the design of the que. and entry area off of three airports, Charles Degaulle Airport in Paris, Orlando International and Chicago O’Hare. As I walked in, I was simply in amazement on how amazing this building looks. The ride it self as described by Disney is ass follows:

Hold your breath as you experience the ultimate sensation of free flight. Your soarin’ journey takes you from one end of the Golden State to the other in this awe-inspiring scenic tour.

• Take in immersive breath-taking aerial vistas while flying in this simulated hang glider
• Your toes dangle just above the awe-inspiring landscapes such as the Golden Gate Bridge and Yosemite
• Feel the wind in your hair as you see California as you’ve never seen it before!

I was in awe the entire time. You can smell the pine forests and the citrus farms. You will lift your feet up for fear of them getting wet as you soar over the ocean complete with the sea air smell. The whole thing ends as you soar through downtown Los Angeles and right over Main Street USA up to Sleeping Beauty Castle to enjoy a fireworks show complete with Tinkerbell. If you have not had a chance to ride this ride at either Disneyland or on a limited preview here at Walt Disney World, make sure you get to your favorite Disney Theme Park and come home this summer and give this attraction a spin. You will be amazed as your breath is taken away and you are in awe at the beauty of California and of soarin’ over the mountains, ocean, forests and Disneyland in your own hang-glider.
