Meet Mulan (Do you like roller coasters?)

So today we went to California Adventure Park and rode 12 rides (I rode 11). The highlight was The IncrediCoaster (based on the movie The Incredibles). My sister sat out because it went upside down, but the rest of us went (none of them had ever been either). Best. Ride. Ever. I had no idea I was a rollercoaster person until I was going upside down and laughing and screaming. The kids got off not sure they were still breathing, except for Hudson (10). Maybe it’s something to do with his autism, but he wanted to do it again! We’re back at the hotel now, recouping. The photo is of Mulan, one of the “princesses” at the Princess Breakfast yesterday when my sister took me (the girls went two years ago). Except for one incident of my sister biting my head off, it’s been a blast. And hey, since I’m only paying for all my food and she’s splitting the cost with my dad, I’ll let her bite my head off once. Are you a rollercoaster person?

Not really. Glad you are having a good time. My sister will occasionally do that over the stupidest stuff. She can be really petty.

No. I am a coward at stuff like that. Even the Ferris Wheel gives me the willies.

@jstory07 We did the Ferris Wheel at my request because it’s my favorite.

@jstory07 You don't feel vulnerable in that little seat?

Sounds like you are having FUN!!! I used to love roller coasters, but haven't been on one for about 30 years now. So who knows if they are still fun to me!!

@AmbiePam Don't think it will happen. My husband hates just about all rides and amusement parks in general.

Pretty and I loved going on the roller coasters at the local amusement parks in Missouri. We haven't been to any of the amusement parks since we moved into this house nine years ago. I've gotten too big to fit in the seats for the rollercoasters we preferred. I could still ride the log rides or other ones like that, though. I'm sure your sister was stressed out over something. I'm sorry she took it out on you.

Oh, that’s okay. She actually was stressed about something she and her husband have been trying to get settled for a month, and unfortunately, she’s a snapper. I try not to take it personally. I bet you could have fit, DE. My BIL is a large fellow, and he fit. My sister said Disney’s park make most, not all, of their rides intentionally friendly for larger people.

@AmbiePam Silver Dollar City definitely doesn't make their rides friendly for larger people. I only weighed about 200 lbs the last time we were there and I didn't fit in the seats of the Wildfire. I was sitting on the armrests.

@DaddyEvil I totally agree. We went five years ago to Silver dollar City, and my BIL couldn’t fit on the majority of them.

Not me but that's great that you've had such a great time on the rollercoaster and the other rides. I'm sorry about having your head bitten off but hopefully everything else is making up for it.

No, I’m not. I’ve been on a few in my time and they make me so nauseous…I would have to pass! But I’m glad you enjoyed it.

I am definitely not a roller coaster person. I dislike being out of control.

I am sorry about your sister's incident, I hope it was nothing serious and you feel fine about that. I never liked the rollercoaster. This Mulan is very pretty.

Oh, it’s okay. She usually snaps at me, so when I said she only snapped at me once, I truly was happy about that. Milan is indeed beautiful. Here is a picture of Rapunzel.

I used to be a rollercoaster fanatic but I have motion sickness now so I don't think I could do it. Mulan looks beautiful.
