For this paper I went to Disneyland in Anaheim, California. I went to the park with my dad on November 9th. We came straight from the airport and arrived at around 10am. The entrance to the park was relatively empty, this was probably due to the fact that the front is really large and it only gets noticeably crowded during the morning while guests are waiting for the park to open. Despite being pretty empty at the entrance, there was a line to get through security. I remember being surprised to…

You can’t watch Disney’s “Big Hero 6” and not be satisfied with your care - it’s way too exhilarating and heartwarming, but more importantly, you wouldn’t want to make Baymax power down. “Big Hero 6” features parentless 14 year old Hiro Hamada (Ryan Potter), a techy boy genius,…

When I need to escape from my everyday life, I go to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida. Universal Studios is one of the major theme parks in Florida. The studio is connected to a hotel and resort. Me and my family try to go there as often as we can. Universal Studios has beautiful scenery that can amaze anyone who sees it.

As a child, my parents shaped me into their ideal image of a little girl. The formation of their ideals actually started long before I first opened my eyes in the hospital.

They had their first date at the Magic Kingdom, they spent all their days off on a Florida beach, and they experienced the technical magic that Disney is so well-known…

Walt Disney had a vision. He imagined an amusement park where children and their parents could enjoy rides and have fun together.
