The Girls Favourite Things
The girls have written what their favourite thing was on our trip to
Walt Disney World.
Claudia
"My favourite part was the Tower of Terror. I like the Tower of
Terror because it takes you and down and you get to see weird things.
Me, Angela, Gillian and Daddy went on it. It was very tall."
Angela
"My favourite part of the trip was Walt Disney World. I liked Walt
Disney World because in Animal Kingdom there was a ride called
Expedition Everest. I loved it because of the big drop and the part
where you go backwards."
Gillian
My favourite part of our trip was at Disney's Hollywood Studios. The
rides there were amazing!! There was one called The Tower of Terror,
this one lifts you up and then drops you 13 stories down. When your
going to drop the doors on the top open up and you can see out to the
Hollywood Studios. The whole time we were on that ride I was gripping my
dad.
Another really fun ride was the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring
Aerosmith. You sit in these cars and go really fast through a series of
loops, drops, and turns. Me and my Mom sat together and half the time we
were gripping each others hands. On some rides they take pictures; Mom's
picture on the Aerosmith ride was funny. Her hair was blown back and her
cheek was presses against the seat, as if she were in a jet.
Another really fun thing was the Toy Story Midway Mania. In this ride
you sit in cars and ride through a series of games. In the games you
shoot different objects at different targets. Dad always got the highest
score. That was the funnest part.
