The best trip of my life has been a year ago on a trip to California with my mom, my aunt, and my cousins. It has been awhile since we had a trip together for as our parents are busy at work. California has been on my travel bucket list since I was in 8th Grade. I have always been intrigued by the palm trees, the Hollywood and especially the theme parks. Out of all the places, the most memorable place I have been in is Downtown Disney. Downtown Disney is an exquisite theme park in Anaheim, California. My family and I started our journey by taking a 3 hour plane trip from Bellingham, Washington going to Las Vegas. In the road from Las Vegas going to LA, there was nothing much to see, it was a deserted area, there were no trees unlike …show more content…

First we went to Disneyland, we got on a lot of rides, my favourite ride would probably be the Hollywood Tower and Cars Land. Hollywood Tower is like the Hellevator at Playland, but the ride is inside a hotel-like building with virtual ghosts. I was terrified with the Hollywood Tower since I have a phobia of heights. Cars Land is based on the movie Cars, it was the exact replica of the Radiator Springs. I was captivated by the breathtaking view for as I felt like I am actually in the movie.

As I walked in the streets, my brain is dancing into the groove of the jazz music through the hidden speakers. In the afternoon we watched the parade, I saw a bunch of Disney characters, it seemed to be watching in the movies of my childhood up closed. During the night, we went into the main castle to watch the fireworks display, there were a lot of people so we had a hard time looking for a great spot. The fireworks started and the music played, mostly Disney songs. The fireworks glimmer in the night, flames shoot high into the sky as colourful fireworks twinkled and dies.

We did not really go on many rides at California Adventures since we slept in until the afternoon. Afternoon time is usually when it starts to get crowded. My favourite ride in California Adventure would be the California Screaming. California Screaming is a roller coaster with the speed of 89 km/h. My cousin and I went into that ride twice because we both love roller coasters, especially the extreme ones. During the night, we went to the World of Colours—it is a show that features special effects and projected images on a water screen. We got to sit in the front seat and my family and I were glad, at first. As soon as the show started, the tube burst water into the thin air with images of the Disney Princesses. I got chills and goosebumps for such an amazing talent they have for putting all this together. I loved the effects of the water fountain and the images together they both meld with each other. After the night show, the front seat including us, were soaking wet. Though, I got sick the day after I did not regret it. I enjoyed spending my 3 days at Downtown Disney although I got sick the last day because of dehydration and exhaustion. After spending 3 days at Downtown Disney we spent a few more days to go to a different amusement park like Sea World, Legoland and Universal Studios. Also, we took the same way going back home to
