Tanya? Have you ever been on this ride? Is it SCARY?


My, how we've evolved over the week. All the kids at the beginning of our adventure were a bit unaware of what Disney had in store for them. The Freight Factor was at times, a bit much for them. They tried using the old "bathroom" tactic, but quickly realized that Tanya would insist they go on. Wrapping their fingers around the railing of the ride rarely worked, finger prying is not against my better judgement. But, there were never any tears. Abigail's favorite line of the week is the title of our blog today. On every ride, this was her ultimate question. After a few days, I finally recognized that she wasn't actually scared, but that's the way she described her feeling, her flopping stomach and vivid imagination for what was yet to come. But, we are in the land where imagination is great, welcome, encouraged and certainly prompted along by all the visual stimuli that Disney so readily provides.
So, we've changed the word "scared" to "full of excitement and anticipation". I don't think Abby at any time said she was scared... though I did hear "lame" once...
