Exciting Winter Ed-Ventures Planned Just for You
FlyOver America
Pack your bags! Enjoy a simulated light that gives you a bird’s eye view of the Maine countryside, New York City, Niagara
Falls, Florida Keys, Minnesota, Glacier Bay Park, Napa Valley, the Golden Gate Bridge, and many other U.S. attractions

spherical screen and combines the motion of your seat with the special effects of wind, mist and scent to give you the
sensation that you are truly soaring. Note: your feet are dangling. Following your “ light,” walk to the FireLake Grill House
in the new Radisson Blu Hotel, where you will enjoy a luncheon of your choice of soup, salad and sandwich combinations.
