This ride was enjoyable with a nice breeze and good view of the pier. The ride time is extremely short though, and the boarding area is in the sun

This is a nice quick ride if the line isn’t too long. Lots of people load at the same time, so it’s pretty quick. The views of the surrounding rides are neat.

This wasn't at the top of our ride list and it seems to be closed a lot but the line was short so we decided to try it out. It was a fun ride, very short but I think it would make you too dizzy if it went on longer. It's one of those rides that if you can do then try it, but if you don't get to then you're not missing out on much. It looks really pretty at night.

Just enough excitement but not too much that it was fun for everyone ages 11-70. Highly recommend if you are in California Adventure!

We've renamed this ride "Space Logs". That's about as fun as it gets.
It's a simple circle gliding ride, and if you're prone to motion sickness (raises hand), it might not be the best ride for you. It certainly isn't a good idea if you're full up from a greasy breakfast.

Again, it's a simple and quick ride. The best thing about it was the cast member working the mic that day. He was in full-on performer mode, cracking jokes and adding sound effects at every "launch". His humor was much appreciated.
The Space Logs go maybe two or three laps around the base before you're brought back in for your "landing". It was more than enough for this chick, who had to close her eyes to ward off a bout of nausea thirty seconds in.
For some reason, the Silly Symphony Swings didn't mess with my equilibrium the way the Space Logs did.
Don't think we'll be coming back to this one.

We rode the ride early in the morning. The line was short. It exceeded my expectations. The breeze felt nice. I was dizzy. The view was great. My husband rode it twice more. It was a fun, light-hearted ride.

This is an easy flying ride that the whole family can enjoy. Line is usually short and not to much time.

This is one of my moms favorite rides. It swings out & goes in a circle. You choose your rocket ship to ride in. Heavier person to the outside. It doesn’t go super fast. You get a nice view of the waterfront

Fast moving line, since so many people can board at once. Stirred a lot of breeze, which was nice on a hot day. Gorgeous view from the ride, and if you get dizzy, you can always close your eyes.

This ride is probably more suited by younger kids but I am glad we had a ride as it had some great views from the Golden Zephyr.
