Do you have a "nap" ride?

My kids always laugh, because there are certain rides I go on just so I can get a quick nap in. They call them my "nap rides".

"Oh, it's about that time, mom need a nap ride."

my nap rides:

Carousel of Progress
Figment
It's a Small World
Great Movie Ride
Pirates of the Caribbean
Haunted Mansion
Spaceship Earth
The boat ride in Mexico
Tomorrowland Transit Authority

And a few more....basically, any ride lasting 15-20 minutes (sometimes even 10) that is slow moving and in AC.

I have fallen asleep at carousel (even though I love it.) hall of presidents, muppets, American pavilion, and little mermaid (HS).
 
I might win the prize for "most rides napped on" so I had to post. Here's few tidbits:

Best place to nap: rafiki's island in thise audio rooms (I assume theyre still there?)

I think I've napped on every disney ride or boat or monorail. i have not napped on SDMT, SM, Splash (my fav), BTMRR, Dumbo (lol), Carpets, Soarin, TT, ToT, RNR, TSMM (too fun), EE, Dinosaur, KRR...havent been there with pandora open, i suspect ill want to sleep on the boat but not flights!

All hail narcolepsy!
 
Last year, my best friend and I (and the couple in front of us) full on snoozed during the American Adventure (technically not a ride I know). Its air conditioned, dark, and the narration lulls so nice lol. People mover is another favorite, especially when you hit the dark tunnel, its like a challenge to not nap. And Spaceship Earth! That long climb up and then the cradled backwards ride down gets me every time.
 
I have fallen asleep on: Carousel of Progress, French Movie, American Pavillion Show, Ellen's Universe of Energy and Spaceship Earth
 

momma's definitely going to sleep. As a matter of fact I purposely request to ride it just so I can have a quick recharge lol.

THIS! LOL. Around 2-3 pm I start telling the kids we need to head to one of my nap rides. They know it means I am running on empty and need a recharge.
 
I fell asleep on it's a small world a few times. Of course we road it like 20 times when we were there, so I didn't miss anything.
 
We don't have nap rides but as we tour late July-early September we certainly take air-conditioned breaks!
Our favourites are:
TTA
Carousel of Progress
Country Bear Jamboree
The Enchanted Tikki Room
Hall of Presidents
The American Adventure
Ellen's Energy Adventure
The Great Movie Ride
 
I only nap at the resort. I don't want to miss anything while I'm in the parks.:earsboy:
 
The first attraction I remember falling asleep in is Muppet Vision 3D, it was late night during the "Last Tour to Endor" event and there were only 3 of us in the whole theater other than cast. We all fell asleep and the cast had to wake us up to move on.

I've also fallen asleep in Mickey's Philharmagic more recently so maybe I just have a thing for napping in nice air-conditioned theaters.
 
I tend to get really dopey on TTA/PeopleMover. I'm usually exhausted and super, duper hot. The gentle breeze and rocking relaxes me. I love that ride and wish I could stay awake!
 
Oh yes! I definitely go on certain rides with the specific plan to nap!

Carousel of Progress
Hall of Presidents
Ellen's Energy Adventure
Great Movie Ride
Spaceship Earth

I haven't found a great nap ride at Animal Kingdom. They really need to work on that! LOL.
 
This is funny because my husband is always talking about his favorite rides to cool off and take a nap.

MK:Carousel of Progress
Epcot: Spaceship Earth
HS: Great Movie Ride
 
The movie in France--it's dark, cool and comfy seats. But I really like that film, so I prefer to stay awake and watch it.

The Ellen thing is something like 45 minutes, so that's a good one if you really want a nap.
 
I don't set out to sleep on any of the rides but I have fallen asleep on Energy and in the France movie despite it being a movie I really enjoy.
