Hi! My name is Aliyah M. Hollyfield. I am 13 year old. My Mom has taken me on 2 trips to Disney World!
The first time I went, I was 10 years old at that time. It was 2008, when I was select to meet with an organization called; Make-A-Wish Foundation. They granted me a wish. My wish was to go to Disney World! They told me I could take some with me, so I chose to take my cousin Jesse and my Mother Patricia, chose my Grandmother. I called my Grandmother Granny.
My mom and I went on a plane. It was my Mom first time. I have been on a plane plenty of times before with my Papa, visiting Alabama. My Granny and my Cousin took a Greyhound Bus. My Granny and cousin Jesse, were already there waiting for us.
We all stayed in a lovely Villa. A Villa is like a house. We stayed in a resort called: Give Kids the World. They were the nicest people on earth. They took such good care of us. They work really hard to provide families with a once in a life time experience to enjoy their very entertaining resort. They will always have our support. They actually are volunteers, and the people work like they are getting paid a million bucks.
My Mom scheduled six days of timeless fun! We went to 6 parks! Animal Kingdom; Magic Kingdom; Epcot; Hollywood Studios; Universal Studios and Sea world.
In Animal kingdom, we saw a ton of animals. We went into the wilds of Disney!
In Magic kingdom, we met all of our favorite Disney’s characters. The Princesses such as Snow White, Cinderella, Bell from Beauty and the Beast, and Aurora from Sleeping Beaut Went through fantasyland and took a ride called; It’s a Small World. We also took a tour through the Hunted Mansion. At that time, that was a little scary for Jesse and me. Will still had a great time.
In Epcot, we discover worlds of wonder and the power of imagination. We went to the Epcot Character Spot; we took a boat ride; we met Marry Poppins; Alice in Wonderland; and we met Chip and Dale, the two chipmunks. We also toured through the World Showcase. My family and I saw; Mexico; Norway; China; Germany; USA; France; Japan; and many, many, more.
In Hollywood studios was full of action glamour and trills! I met and dance with the High School Musical characters as they performed to High School Musical 2: school’s Out! We met some more characters such as: the Little Einstein’s; Handy Mandy and his Tools; Mickey and Minnie Mouse and others.
In Universal studios, we met and took pictures with SpongeBob, and got on Jimmy Neutron ride! It was very awesome; and went shopping and so much more.
In Sea world, we were amazed, we saw the Shamu Show. Shamu is a killer whale that swims in the sky. There were colors everywhere. I can’t forget to tell about the part of the world where dolphins danced on the water. During the Shamu: Believe show, we experienced SeaWorld’s biggest star. Shamu did all sort of stunts and then to end the show, Shamu slashed fishy salt water all on us and we were soaked! During and after the show, I ate nachos, and a turkey leg.
Afterwards; I touched and fed the Dolphins at Dolphins Cove. I had the best time ever!
My 3 year-old cousin Jesse was challenging through the whole entire trip. He was really really *#@, I mean *#@ TO THE BONE. We all had a very great time in the underground aquarium. All I can say is SeaWorld rocked!
The second time we went to Disney World, it was 2011, I was 13 years old. This time my 2 cousin, Jesse and Jamee, my Aunt Nay, and Granny, and my mom. We moved to Alabama so this time we drove Granny’s Armada truck. So it was a fun road trip.
When we arrived there, we stayed at the Buena Vista hotel, it was very nice. The first day, we stayed in the hotel all day, and cooked a feast. We had CRABLEGS!!!!!!!!!!!!! For dinner. MMMMMmmmmm!!
The second day, we ate a big breakfast and went to Animal Kingdom. We saw: Winnie The Pooh, Tigger the Tiger, Eyeore the Donkey, from the TV show Winnie the pooh. We also saw lots of animals, took a ride the through the safari; we rode on the Dumbo Ride; and we went to watch Finding Nemo the Musical. My Mom Patricia and my Aunt Nay rode the MT. Everest Expedition, a high speed train trek forward and backward through the Himalayan unknown. Also my Mom Patricia, Aunt Nay, Jesse and Jamee saw, it’s a Bugs Life. We all did a lot of walking that day.
On the third day, we went to Give Kids the World. As soon as we got there we got in the swimming pool. We swam for 5 hours. We ate dinner there at the Gingerbread house; got tattoos and went to a singing contest called ‘Village Idol’! It was like American Idol.
We were supposed to stay for 3 days, but my Mom Patricia treated us to an extra day and we left early that afternoon. We went shopping and I got a few gifts for some special people in my life. I had the best time ever again! Spring Break was over, so when I made it to school on that following Monday, I gave my Friends and my Helpers their gifts.
A week after I went to Disney World, I couldn’t stop thinking about my trip, I had so much FUN the last 2 times that I went, that I just wanted to write about it.
I hope to go again.
