I have had the fortune of being able to travel with my family on many separate occasions. The most memorable and enjoyable of these travels was our entire family visit to Disney World. When my grandmother died in 2006, she left a lot of money with my Mom and Aunts. They decided to pool the money and buy everyone a plane ticket to Florida for Christmas. I had been to Disney World once before as a child, and honestly I thought it was much more fun as an adult. There is a reason why they call it the happiest place on earth, and I would go back in a second if I had the money.
My favorite theme park was MGM Studios, where I faced my ultimate fear, heights. I braved to ride the “The Hollywood Tower of Terror.” This is basically “Power Tower” in the dark. I am absolutely terrified of heights and free falls, but I decided to face my fears in memory of my grandmother. It was an amazing adrenaline rush which boosted my confidence and raised my bravery bar. Since then I have been able to do all kinds of other scary rides, included the Rip-Cord at Valleyfair which is basically the superman ride. Next year I’m planning to skydive for my 25th birthday.
It was in that magical place where I really discovered that the only thing holding you back from accomplishing your dreams are yourself. Anything can be done if you put your mind to it. Thanks Mickey!

Wow sounds like you had fun! The tower of terror is my favorite ride. That was nice that everyone got to go to Disney World for Christmas, what a wonderful present.
I'd love to go there! Over here in California we have Disney Land, which is much smaller. It is still a blast to go to! I'm glad you have such wonderful memories with your family.

Thanks for sharing. It does sound like a fun time. I like your last sentence.
I have always wanted to go to Disney world! It sounded like alot of fun. Great blog.
Great job on your summary. It sounds like you had a great time in Florida. You want to go sky diving? That's really cool. I'm hoping for my 18th birthday I will be able to go!
Disney World is wonderful! You did a good job with your story. I like that you did things in honor or memory of your grandmother.
