Does Carousel of Progress count as a circular ride?

tough call for me as my reasons are based on nostalgia. i would have to give it a tie between dumbo and astro orbiter.

I'd have to go with Dumbo-although, Carousel of Progress is also a fave!

We always skip Dumbo and ride the Magic Carpets or Triceratop Spin. It's the same ride and the lines are shorter.

My favorite is the Magic Carpets. I like its theming better than Dumbo or Triceratop Spin.

Carousel of progress BY FAR, though the end needs updating :) Astro Orbiter second, But actually I never go on any of them for some reason (except CoP like 12 times everytime!) because of the slow line movement.

We always loved Dumbo when DS's were younger, but now they don't want to ride it! I don't miss that long line at all! :dumbo: We're not really big on those rides that go in circles, but we do all like Aladdin's Magic Carpets! We love the spitting camels! :cool: COP is an absolute must for us, but I've always considered it more of a show rather than a ride, so I guess that would be our fav! :number1:

Any carousel. :horse: I just love riding those, even if I'm the only adult on it, without kids. ^_^

And Carousel of Progress. ^_^

I would have to vote for COP and tea cups. I love watching the boys get drunk:sick:!! They look hilarious.

If by "circular" you mean a hub & spoke ride (Dumbo, Aladdin, Astro Orbiter, Triceritops) then I've gotta pick the Astro Orbiter. It's cool to be up that high!

Otherwise, if ANY circular ride can be chosen then I pick Cinderella's Golden Carousel. :mickey:

ok if this does count, then i have to go against my original post and vote for CoP. by far the best in my opinion.

We found the Astro Orbitor to be torturous!!!! Maybe because they folded myself and my 2 tween daughters like origami to get us all in the rocket. Coming out of it was another challenge and we are not large people!! We won't do that one again!!

:exactly:

We do try to ride Dumbo at least once during the trip because it is Dumbo - but thus far Chloe is happy with both the Magic Carpets and Triceratop spin and the lines are MUCH shorter.

DUMBO!!! We have to ride Dumbo at least once on our trip, even if it means waiting for a very long time! It seems like a sin if we don't!:thedolls:

Time for my big Disney confession-I LOVE Triceratop Spin! Next time you see a 50-something yo woman riding it solo with a big grin, that's me. That's one reason I like to go to WDW solo once a year in addition to going with DH once a year-to ride rides like this as often as I want.

Triceratops Spin. I just love that area in general.

In regards to technical ROUND ride -- ditto on the COP

Astro Orbiter is by far my favorite hub and spoke ride. The height and the view just make it more fun. The line however usually stanks.

Dumbo for sentimental reasons and that is where we saw Mickey riding during EMH in Feb. My sister (who's 20) had to ride it and when she saw Mickey on there I thought I'd have to sit on her to keep her from jumping the gate! She loves Mickey! Today I enjoy CoP and the TeaCups the most (our personal best on the TeaCups is riding 6 times without stopping during EMH!). I am a huge Aladdin fan so it would come in fourth.

Well if COP isn't considered a "circular ride", I absolutely love Astro! I finally went on it last year (I hadn't been on it since I was little) when there was wasn't a line and boy was I pleasantly surprised. :thumbsup:

That view is so cool!

I'm probably the minority here, but I have to go with the carpets. My 3-year-old son loves them and they fact that the camel "might" spit on us.

Astro Orbiter especially at night.

I'm guessing you mean hub & spoke; my favorite would be Aladdin's Magic Carpet Ride.
