I've tried to do some searches to answer this more directly without starting a new thread, but I might not know how to do it.
I've learned a lot about Mission: Space meanwhile.
I am not an amusement park junkie, so I've little experience with rides.
I've seen people be able to differentiate various experiences that rides offer which are problematic for them such as motion, centrifuge, g-force, bumpy, scarey, being upside down versus feeling like you're upside down, fast rides, etc.
How do you tell all that?
I would hate for an entire day to be ruined of a tour due to nausea or headache or something on the part of my husband, daughter (5 y.o.) and me.
I have little to go on. The merry-go-round, I'm usually fine on. I can get dizzy. The ferris wheel gets me dizzy, believe it or not. I can handle trainrides, even overnight, but on the second day can get fed up with the bumps.
I have no way of telling what that means.
One time, as a teenager, I went to a carnival and tried this caged ride that turned us around and around and then upside down. I didn't care for hurling through space upside down and then twisting while climing upward. Now, I think I'd get dizzy.
When I swim, sometimes, even with custom-made ear plugs, I can get a little dizzy. The audiologist tells me I have a jaw/ear canal motion that's the equivalent of a 60 year old's even though I'm in my mid-40s. I have no idea if that's related, but it might be why I've required custom-made ear plugs since my 20s for ear pain and dizziness with water and boy oh boy do I love to swim....
Does this help anyone in pointing me in the right direction?
I also don't know how to direct my child and husband to any rides that might not be suitable for them, if any, given some sort of sensation that they might experience and are not anatomically equipped to handle.
I have read the daredevil reports, too. Certainly, fear plays into these sort of things, too.
