Soarin

Welcome to another FiveMinuteJourney.  Sharing a quick overview of the Soaring ride at Walt Disney World’s Epcot Center Theme Park. If you’ve been to Walt Disney World in the past you may have been on the thrilling high-flying adventure that used to take you to various Adventures by Disney locations as you went Soarin around the World. The exciting ride takes you with your feet dangling to various sites such as the ice fjords in Greenland, Sydney Harbor, Germany’s Neuschwanstein Castle, Mt. Kilimanjaro, The Great Wall of China, the Pyramids of Giza, the Taj Mahal, Utah’s Monument Valley, Fiji islands, Iguazu Falls in Brazil, The Eiffel Tower and arriving back home to Epcot’s famous ball. 

To Commemorate DisneyLand’s 100 year anniversary the Epcot Soarin ride has changed to Soarin over California which brings new scents and sights as you soar over Yosemite National Park, Napa Valley, Lake Tahoe, Palm Springs, Sand Diego harbor, Malibu and tnd downtown LA then returning back to the DisneyLand Park 100 years from it’s founding.  

Both versions bring the excitement of breathtaking views and offer various scents representing the oranges, the dust, the seabreeze and pine trees.  If you have to sit on either side be ready to see some distorted images, like a curved taj mahal or banana shaped Eiffel tower but the senses are sure to savor the powerful moments as you explore the world and the great state of California.
