Personally, I would stay off the roller coaster.

But that has nothing to do with diving. I just prefer not to torture myself.
 
You probably should not do it if you still feel sick from riding the roller coaster, otherwise have a blast!
 
Definitley stay away from the teacup ride, that thing is mid-evil; kicked my butt.
 
OK, all, thanks for the replies and the humor!! :yelclap: Now I feel safe in the knowledge that if I develop "the bends" afer I ride Tower of Terror, I CAN BLAME IT ALL ON THE SCUBABOARD MEMBERS!!!!

But all joking aside, I did wonder about the sudden ascents & decents to and from unknown heights, so it was a legit concern. As a newbie, I guess you guys gotta give me credit for thinking about it.

So, after we do DiveQuest (approx. 45 min. at no more than 30'), we'll save the Tea Cups for the next day!!
 
RoatanMan, Mickey's dog is PLUTO, NOT Goofy!!

Which reminds me of a joke that the TOS & MODs wouldn't approve of.

It starts out with, "Mickey's divorcing Minnie...." (Google it)
 
We jumped out of planes and went directly into a dive. They be a bit taller than da coaster.

The brain damage comes before the jump and dive. :D

Some of the transport you get on after dives is a lot worse than roller coaster rides (all those who've dived in challenging way-out locations in the developing world know this). These adventures in the backs of pickups or jeeps on bumpy roads can really test your kidneys. You just have faith in the driver and assume there are working brakes.

Seriously, with a day's gap, I really wouldn't worry about the roller coaster.
