I love the TOT too. A couple of years ago my boyfriend took me to Disney for my first time (his fourth) and the TOT was new so it was the first time he was on it. I LOVED the ride, he didn't! As a matter of fact, I wanted to buy the picture they take of you as your going down, but Pete wouldn't let me because he was clinging on to me for dear life!
The only reason he agreed to go on the ride again was so we could try again for the picture (now that we knew they snapped one). As it turned out, for that picture the guy in front of me had his hands up so you couldn't see me at all. We bought it anyway because Pete looked like he wasn't scared.
When we go in Sept., I know I'll have to beg and plead to get him on that ride again!!
