I have a family (mom, son, sil...) full of sickies
Here is something I have learned about motion sickness... most people don't get sick on roller coasters!!! ITS TRUE!!! My mom will barf on peter pan but does just fine on space mountain
coasters go a lot faster and the motion is not a slow rocking motion.
Also, take dramamine before your day starts. My son will live on that stuff on our theme park trips and does great... without it he gets sick just LOOKING at a ride
Remember dramamine won't work if you wait until your sick to take it.
If dramamine doesn't work, go to your doc and explain how motion sick you get. Have him write you a script. DO NOT LET HIM talk you into the ear patch as that is a waste IMO as it didn't work for mom on a cruise. There are script motion sickness meds that work much better than OTC stuff ... of course you might be a little loopy and start singing in the park
