We want to tell you a little bit about our
Walt Disney World vacation.
It was our first ever trip to Walt Disney
World and it was even better than we imagined.
There were a lot of firsts on this trip.
First airplane ride for Elisha.
First roller coaster ride for Claire.
Wasn’t it your first roller coaster, too?
No, remember I went on that one at Sesame
Place when I was like three-and-a-half?
Hey this is our Disney video.
Sorry.
It was our first time eating those Mickey
Mouse ice creams.
And the Dole Whip soft-serve ice cream at
Aloha Isle.
But now we’re skipping too far ahead.
Let’s rewind a bit.
Okay, so this whole trip started when our
parents bought us new Three Funny Sister t-shirts.
But these t-shirts had some dates on them.
Three Funny Sisters. Walt Disney World, January... February...
What? We're going to Disney?!
What? We're going to Disneyland? Where?When?
Then we flew to Florida.
We took the Magical Express bus to the Contemporary.
It was so late when we finally got to the
hotel.
Our first day was at Hollywood Studios.
I got this.That. My Magic Band. Pants and a shirt.
I'm all dressed for Disney.
We met so many characters.
We did the Frozen sing-along.
And then this happened.
We also saw the Indiana Jones stunt show.
And we got to meet Marion and Indy.
Okay, if you’re a boy and are watching this,
cover your ears.
We didn’t do any of the Star Wars stuff.
We’re not really into Star Wars.
But we did get to meet a Stormtrooper.
He was a bit intense.
You. Report to the First Order!
You shouldn't have to think about it.
That night at dinner we met Mickey…
Minnie…
Goofy…
Pluto… and Donald.
Remember, Disney World is *not* for babies.
It is a wonderful, magical place.
Magic Band... open your door to your hotel room. Super cool.
If it’s Tuesday, it must be Epcot.
Epcot was so much fun.
We designed a car at Test Track and then rode
on the fifty-two hundred foot track at a speed
of 64.9 miles per hour, or 104 kilometers
per hour.
That’s the longest ride track at Disney
World and the fastest speed of any Disney
ride anywhere.
We also rode Soarin’.
It’s a flight motion simulator.
You get lift up in the air right in front
of a giant 80 foot curved screen.
There are artificial smells and wind and your
seat tilts forward and back.
It totally feels like you are flying.
We also did Spaceship Earth, which temporarily
broke down half-way through the ride.
We got to ride Frozen Ever After at the Norway
Pavilion.
It was fun.
And then we met Elsa and Anna at their summerhouse.
Our dad thought we should use Google translate
to say something in Norwegian to Queen Elsa.
Because, you know, Elsa is supposed to be
from Norway.
Yeah, I don’t think anyone had ever done
that before.
Oops.
Anna was funny.
The cool thing about Epcot is that there are
a bunch of rides, but then you can visit the
different country pavilions.
We browsed the markets in China and Germany.
Had lunch in Italy.
Posed for photos in Mexico.
Met Princess Aurora in France.
Listened to some drumming in Japan.
And walked through the US, the UK, Morocco,
and Canada.
Yay, Canada!
Anyway, we did a few more rides after that
like Mission Space, but that’s pretty much
our day at Epcot.
Wait, you forget the best part!
What do you mean?
The announcement on the Monorail!
Okay I think it’s time to talk about the
Magic Kingdom.
Yeah, when most people think of Disney World,
they’re really thinking about the part of
Disney World called Magic Kingdom.
You know... the castle, the Dumbo ride, Space
Mountain.
That’s all in Magic Kingdom.
We got to spend two whole days there from
about 8:30am to 8:30pm.
That’s about 24 hours in all!
Or one-thousand, four-hundred and forty-four
minutes!
Where to begin!
Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!
We met a lot of princesses in Magic Kingdom.
But the most memorable one of all was Belle.
Claire was picked to be The Beast during Enchanted
Tales With Belle.
Here’s her big scene.
Then I got to dance with Belle.
Elisha thought this was the funniest thing
ever.
The funnest part of Magic Kingdom were the
mountains.
Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain and Space
Mountain.
I loved the Dumbo ride!
And Aladdin's Magic Carpets!
Elisha also liked Winnie the Pooh, the Carousel,
It’s a Small World, and Little Mermaid.
And the Tiki Room!
She also loved riding the train.
And the People Mover in Tomorrowland.
I think Elisha’s favourite thing of all
was her bubble machine.
Things Elisha did not like included Pirates
of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, The Barnstormer
roller coaster, And meeting some of the characters.
Here are some more things we did.
Astro Orbiter.
Taking picture of ducks.
The Mad Tea Party
The Peter Pan Ride
We basically did everything except for Jungle
Cruise and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.
We saved the best thing for last.
The Happily Ever After fireworks and light
show.
It’s the best fireworks show ever.
We loved Disney World.
It was our favourite vacation ever.
Here are a few photos from our trip.
Thanks for watching.
Bye!
