I have been working in the travel industry for three years and have gained valuable insights from my experiences. One trip that stands out in my memory is our visit to Disney World with my family. We stayed in a Cars-themed room on the Disney property, which was meticulously designed to fit the Cars theme. The room even featured a pull-down bed that converted into a table, allowing us to enjoy meals and spend quality time together.

 

The following day, we visited the Epcot theme park, where we had a wonderful time sampling foods from different countries. The park was using Magic Bands at that time, which we used to access rides and purchase snacks and drinks. We also had the fantastic opportunity to watch our food being prepared right in front of us. The chefs put on a show, including turning a tower of onions into a volcano, which was a truly unforgettable experience.

 

On another day, we explored Disney Studios and witnessed a parade happening right in the middle of the street. We were thrilled to see iconic Disney characters like Mickey, Minnie, Donald Duck, Goofy, Pluto, Daisy, Chip, and Dale, all on the parade float, dancing to the music as it moved through the streets. Additionally, we had breakfast with the princesses Cinderella, Ariel, and Sleeping Beauty. It was an enchanting experience!

 

Later, we went on a ride called Space Mountain. It was really fun and extremely fast. After that, we went on the Tower of Terror. You enter what looks like an elevator, then you are taken up to a room where the doors open. Then you are told to sit on the bleachers that have a seat belt and a bar across it. After everyone is safely buckled in, the ride starts. A screen pops on and ghostly figures pop up on the screen, waving at you. The seats you're in move forward toward the screen, giving the illusion of falling off the building. I can still hear the screams of those who were riding with me in fear of what was happening definitely something to try I recommend you have a good time and a lot of memories to keep with you forever.

My trip to Disney World was the first time I've been there since I was a little kid. I got to experience the trip of a lifetime. When I went, there were the magic bands - Disney's way of letting you pay for stuff without actually having to use a card. You just go online and buy the wristband you want. They have free ones, but they also have different turf ones. The first time I went, I had a Mickey Mouse band that was purple, and the second time I went, I had a belt with the bands. I was able to get snacks, different drinks, and candy. You can get all the different food they have there. You have to show your band because you're allowed an allowance to have a snack. I got to try so many different foods. It was an amazing experience. I had mac & cheese, and it was amazing. You can also go into different candy stores - I tried my favorite candy, the pecan candy apple, and it was so good. I recommend you go and try it; it's worth the wait in line. There are different cotton candies that you can try. Now let's get to the rides. I went on the Space Mountain ride, the Dumbo ride, a ride where you can build your car, and a Jurassic Park ride at Animal Kingdom. There are different parks in Disney World - Disney Hollywood Studios, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Magic Kingdom. Each park has different rides. Hollywood Studios has the Tower of Terror ride, which is based on an old hotel that was haunted - it's quite a fun ride. I loved my experience at Disney World, from the food to the rides to the family to the memories. My second time going was the same - lots of rides, but this time there were no magic bands. You had to pay with a card, but it was the best experience ever seeing all your favorite characters. I got to take pictures with Donald, Mickey, Goofy, Cinderella, Chippendale, Belle, Ariel, Mulan, DocMcstuffins, Timon, Pumbaa, and many more. I love going to Disney World; it's one of those trips you'd love to take with a special person or with family - it's a fun time full of memories. I recommend anybody to go to Disney World; it's pricey, but it's worth it. Avatar was one of the best experiences I've ever had - it was virtual, but it felt so real as if I was flying on top of this animal. There was another ride I went on - it was super fast like you're a superstar late for a meeting that's a concert. It was Rocknroller RocknRoller Coaster and it was the best ride I've ever been on, besides Avatar. I'll book another trip to Disney World because it was one bucket list trip that I'm glad I got to check off. Disney World is so magical, unlike anything anybody has ever experienced; everything feels so real. The Pirates of the Caribbean ride was lovely; you're on a boat and get to see all the different pirates as you sail through. I loved the Winnie the Pooh ride, which tells the story of him and his friends - I need to go back to that one if it's still there. My experience with Disney World was amazing, a life-changing experience that I'll remember for the rest of my life, and so will my family.
