I wouldn't mind the ride with Figment to be "down". I rode it for the first time in 2003 and was like ***? I have never been back on it since. Though now I have a 2 year old son, so I am going to try it again when we go in January. If Avery likes it, then I will ride it over and over. I will do anything for him. This next vacation is going to be all about Avery!!! we are going to take it slow and enjoy him and his reactions to all of the sights and sounds. I am so excited!
