1 Caleb and his friends got sick because of the movement of the roller coaster (motion sickness). Do you or people that you know get sick from riding in a car or bus on curving roads? When and where did it happen?
Before, it was more common than now, but time to time you can find people that get sick when they have a trip. In my country this more happen in Los Andes.
Do you think you would enjoy the roller coaster, like Caleb and his friends, or would you stay away from it?
Certainly, I use to enjoy this atraction but without to abuse, because I can get sick
2. Where would you like to go on a fun trip with your friends? What would you do there? How would you have fun?
Really, I´d like to go to Disney World too but with my family and ride all the park knowing and enjoying all its atractions

Discussion Questions:
Every first ride of my life, if it was a car, bus, or airplane made me vomit. Throughout my journey, I used to throw up and felt a sensation of nausea. Later on, I got used to it and started to enjoy my travelling.
Greetings Maestro Sersea
Yes, my smaller sister when we ride long distance have faced that kind of situation, she feel nauseous but without led to throw up, I have had the same trouble mainly at the curving road, I remember a trip that I did to Santa Barbara my ears started to whistle and I felt nauseous, but my dear mother gave me a tip to not throw up and it was eat lemon while we were traveling this help to avoid the vomit, although there’s pills that serve to prevent the vomit, too.
About the roller coaster I never in my life has get up to one but, I think that I couldn´t support such a thing and for other hand I consider a little bit dangerous. So that I have stayed away from it.
Thank you so much.
