Disney's California Adventure Park

in the car ready to go Citadel Factory Outlets. Being extremely jet lagged, my brother and I fell asleep in the car. We spent about 3-4 hours shopping at the outlet. Within a flash, the first day had gone and I was ready to collapse in fatigue. Day 2 was spent at the famous ‘California Adventure Park’. Personally this was one of my favourite places while in the ‘United States of America’. California Adventure park had all these amazing rides that I couldn't wait to trial. The first thing I witnessed while in California Adventure Park was the live, bubbly music playing from the old Disney movies. We had gone on multiple rides but the ride that stood out to me the most, was the infamous ‘Tower of Terror’. The Tower of Terror was a ride that took you up 13 floors and then all of a sudden your insides dropped to the floor (whilst physically you were dropping about only 6-7 floors) and those were your last few moments alive. Coming out of the ride, trembling with absolute fear, and a sensation of pride that I’d survived, I recounted the whole ride to my coward sibling. My body was tired, fatigued and still jetlagged, but my mind was going ecstatic in anticipation, as the next day was the much awaited ‘California…

Lemoore, California. The 559, the 93245, the small rural town located in the central region of the San Joaquin Valley. A place that will melt flip flops to the ground in the summer, yet it will have people gathering around a fire in the winter with their hands wrapped tightly around a steaming cup of cocoa. Not much goes on in this town and it is not quite what someone would call a vacation destination, but there is indeed something special about this town. This special characteristic is the way…

This summer I went to the D23 Expo at the Anaheim Convention Center. The best part was going to the Parks and Resorts panel. My mom and I were waiting in this mile long line at 9am for this panel that started at 3 pm. We finally started moving and went down the escalator to go into the basement. We entered a giant room under the main ballroom and sat down on this cold gray concrete floor with about seven thousand other people to wait. After being down there for about three hours we finally got…

“We believed in our idea- a family park where parents and children could have fun together,” Walt Disney once said (Fanning 167). It is hard to believe that Walt Disney World was once just land. People’s ideas, thoughts, and actions helped Walt Disney World to become what it is today. Walt Disney World is known to most people as the “Most Magical Place on Earth.” There are many reasons why.

If you have, that may be a result of Walt Disney’s 1940 film, Pinocchio, which first introduced the idea of a world full of fantasy through wishing (Fanning 80). Disney’s new world was not easily created nor successful the first few tries, but with arduous work and dedication his goals came true. Seventy- four years later, the dreams and wishes are still being kept alive through movies, attraction parks, many types of merchandise and an impressive charitable relationship with the public.
