Almost all American families take a vacation. Whether it be only a few hours down the interstate or to the other side of the country, families like taking trips together. From camping in the mountains to fishing in the Caribbean, every family has a “spot” that they go to make memories and enjoy each other’s company. For my family, there is always one place we will visit every year, almost like a pilgrimage. That place is Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, my favorite place in the world. Every year, my family picks a week out of the calendar that everyone is available, and we buy our tickets for Disney World. We start our count down until the trip begins. When the time finally arrives, we pack up the car, secure the house, and begin our yearly pilgrimage to the home of Mickey Mouse. The journey isn’t a fairly long one, around seven hours of driving, but it sure can be tiring. When we arrive at the condo, we take all the stuff upstairs: coolers full of food, suitcases for …show more content…
The trip to Disney World gives me the ability to bond and enjoy time with my family without any worries other than what the next ride is going to be or what kind of pin I want for my collection. It allowed me to realize how fortunate I am in this world and what kind of people my parents are to allow me to go to such an amazing place, year after year. And it is simply a fun experience for me to go back to having a worry free lifestyle as that of a child, and enjoy the simple things in life such as a hug with Donald Duck or eating ice cream with family. My pilgrimage to Disney World has been something of a family holiday, such as Christmas, that has helped make me who I am today. This is why Disney World is my favorite place in the world, and probably will remain so for the rest of my life. I hope one day that I might be able to continue this pilgrimage as a legacy with my children, and maybe they with

You could fit all of Disneyland plus 500 more cars into the parking lot at Disney world. Disney world is 40 sq. miles. To put that in a visual for you it’s the size of all San Francisco. Walt Disney created Disney World because he wanted a place where families could spend quality time and fun together in a safe environment.

Walt Disney World is trademarked for being the “Happiest Place on Earth”, and attracts millions of people each year from all around the world. With 10,000 guests an hour visiting Walt Disney World, parks reach their carrying capacity of 100,000, within the 43 square miles of Disney property, almost all of the days that it is open year round (“Walt Disney World”). With this much land and this number of people coming and going from the property each day, one may be to believe that The Walt Disney Company has their eye on one thing and one thing only - Money. Although this may seem to be a reasonable assumption, Walt Disney World, along with the entire Walt Disney Company, is paving the way to a sustainable company in new environmentally friendly
Everything in the parks is done for family, joy, and, of course, magic (Elias 1). Milt Thurman is a Disney fan that has said that Disney “is a nice, safe place to be” and that “it’s not today; it’s not tomorrow, its forever. It’s just a great place (Stein 6).” Whenever somebody walks into the parks, there is always a feeling that is great. The feeling of love, compassion, hope, and belief in the future are the feelings that people get when walking into the parks each time. This feeling comes from the cast members and the park as a whole. As people walk into the parks, the first thing seen is the bright colors, smiling faces of everyone, and also the characters. The whole idea of having fun, being excited, having hope and falling in love is what everyone wants (Stein 3). People instantly fell in love with Disneyland because it took them into a world of fantasy for a chance to relax and become part of the stories associated with their childhood memories of watching the Disney movies (Stein 1). At the same time, the art of family-friendly storytelling remains the core (Stein 2). When Walt was creating and designing Disney, he had many goals he wanted to meet. All he wanted was the greatest creative effort, not the most efficient operation. He also believed that giving people the right motivation was the best and only way to accomplish his dream. Disney had an obsession with the park, and always looked at it
Every year since I was a freshman in high school my family would all pack into our car and head to Six Flags for my father’s job. This was usually one day I could count on for unexpected entertainment. Each year was a new experience in the making because one year it may be sunny or one year it may rain, but HEY! Its Georgia weather what can you do about it?

It was the third time I have gone to Disney World. To see the amazement and the expectation of the
Walt also added more disney characters to the films. Walt loved the idea of Disney characters so much that he wanted to bring them to life to make children and families happy. Walt came up with the idea of creating an amusement park with rides, disney characters, sweet treats,and art pieces. He called these two amusement parks Disneyland, Anaheim and Disney World, Florida Walt did this because he knew that these two amusement parks would make him well known and nobody would ever forget who this brilliant man is. Walt called Disneyland “the Happiest place on Earth.” (Watts 20). Walt called it this because he knew his guests would appreciate his handiwork so much by visiting Disneyland again with their friends, family and loved ones. Unfortunately, Walt did not get to finish creating Disney world, Walt had passed away with lung cancer at age 65 on December 15, 1966. “His brother Roy finished creating Disney World for him.” (Watts 50). Disney World had also become a popular theme park because of its Disney characters, animals and beautiful scenery. In today’s Society Fame means being famous because of something that is trending or being famous for what you created. For example, Walt Disney is famous for creating multiple Disney parks, Entrepreneurship, and Disney brands. Walt also became well known to everyone because he created Disney Brands that reminded us of our childhood. were really value Walt’s Disney brands, because it is what we look forward to purchasing as a gift or souvenir for a friend or for ourselves and makes us feel happy.

Everyone loves it so much that Wearing these ears and other type of Disney products makes us feel like we're a part of it.

Young girls sit in front of the television watching Disney movies portraying picture perfect girls who are rescued and swept off their feet by a handsome knight in shining armor. While some believe these movies are perfectly harmless, research proves differently. Disney culture has negatively affected society by causing self-esteem issues, establishing gender norms in movies like Sleeping Beauty, and by setting unrealistic expectations, such as those seen in the similar “fairy tale” endings of The Little Mermaid and the movie version of Pride and Prejudice. If one has a bit of background information on this topic, he or she can make up his or her mind on the issue.
Everything seemed to be going smoothly that morning. Dad loaded the luggage and packed the cooler. He even packed the extra pillows. My family was very happy as we prepared for our trip. I was twelve years old and my brother, Jobie, was ten. My dad had told us for years about his first trip to Disney Land in California when he was a young Marine.
Disney; ambitious and forward thinking with their creations have created many fairy-tale inspired musicals, and Beauty and the Beast is no different. With its array of era inspired music and mixing with more modern pieces have culminated into a musical experience as timeless as the advent of theatre. Its theatre adaptation has also captured the magic shown in the film experience. Attending a local musical-theatre show had enlightened me on the differences between larger orchestras; and small town, provincial ensembles. The ensemble consisted of an unspecified percussionist, a bass, piano, synth, violin, cello, trumpet, two horns, flute, oboe, english horn, clarinet and many, many vocalists.
It was a quite fascinating vacation when my parents decide to take me for a trip after a well-spent session in school for about three months. My exemplary performance during the three months session in school prompted my parents to surprise me with a colorful journey that hit skies in my life. When I was informed of the trip, I was always joyous till the material day reckoned. If I could say, they chose the most important thing that seemed favorable to me, visiting Universal Studios in Orlando which is found in the city of Florida. I like Universal Studios due to their good movies that are combined with a series of 3-dimensional movie screens.
Eren watched the retreating backs of his two best friends as they walked on ahead chatting animatedly with each other as if they haven’t wronged him in any way. How could they betray him like this? Mikasa must’ve noticed her brother’s grumbling behind her because she stopped and pressed her finger into his forehead without him realizing. The jolt surprised him and anger overtook surprise in a matter of seconds.
