Hi Everyone! I hope last week was great for you! Last week was Thanksgiving break and my family and I decided to have a road trip. We drove to Florida to visit my parents. We ate turkey and celebrated Thanksgiving on Thursday and then we brought my parents to Disney World with us on Friday. This was our first time at Magic Kingdom. We walked to as many parks within Magic Kingdom as we can and go on as many rides as time permitted and saw a few shows. At the end of the day, you can be sure that my legs were really tired from all the walking and standing! But we had a blast!
One most memorable part of the trip was the roller coaster ride at Space Mountain. My family avoided these roller coaster rides because they were afraid. I’m the only one up for it. I also thought Magic Kingdom is the place for kids and didn’t think any of the rides were scary. Oh Boy! I was wrong! This ride was scary and the only ride my family went on because it was indoor and no one can see how scary it was from the outside. Once the ride started, there’s no turning back. My mom said she closed her eyes the entire ride. My hubby hold onto the bar very tight his knuckles were white. His hat also flew off because he was too afraid to let go of the bar to grab the hat. My 5 year old son was so scared that when the ride ends, he ran to me and cried so hard. I feel so bad that my son was so scared and alone because this ride seat only one person per row so I couldn’t comfort him during the ride. Despite them being scared, they didn’t peed in their pants though! haha.. I told them I was recording a video of myself during the ride but it was super dark in there so the video was pitch black. All in all, it was a great experience.
Disney World in Orlando, Florida, USA.

The castle. So beautiful!
I walked in Main Street, Tomorrowland, Fantasyland, Frontierland, and Adventureland. I didn’t have enough time to visit Liberty Square and Haunted House.
I love these beautiful flowers!

Most bloggers don’t even show their faces on any of their blog posts. I already showed my face & body 😂 I think that will be as far as will go, especially in case if I have a bad review, authors won’t go after my family 😂😂

Hahahahahahaha! Good point! I just was curious cause you’re so cute and I bet you have an adorable fam. How about you and I plan to go to the summer YA Book Con in NY? Then we could hang in person and pick up cool swag and ARCs at the booths! LairofBooks and Gretchen are going again, and I think Jillian is joining them. I know it’s not for awhile, but it would be a bookish adventure! 😊

That would be so awesome to go! At the same time, I would have to beg hubby & kid to go with me because I’m afraid to travel alone. Thanks for bringing this up. I remember reading their blog posts of their adventures and it sounded really fun. I love all those freebies! 😊😊

What a lovely trip! It seems you had a wonderful time. I’ve only been to Disneyland, but I’d love to take a road trip over to Florida to check it out. I LOVE the Space Mountain roller coaster, too!! But it can be pretty intense for the little ones haha. I’m glad you enjoyed your time there 😀

I like Disneyland, but I can’t go there too often b/c it’s so crowded. But going with the right ppl definitely makes the experience richer. I’m actually going next weekend with my friends/sisters! It’s much smaller than Disney World though, but it’s still got the same magic/atmosphere 😀

Wow, that’s way too much money for food. At least you had fun though, I guess that makes up for it.

I’ve been in Disney Land in Paris once and there’s also a space mountain ride, I had a little bit of the same problem as you had, I went in having no idea what it was. And then I found out it was a little more scary than I expected! Also I bumped my head against the chair a lot so that was really annoying.

Were you scared? I didn’t like that it was so dark and loud and windy. I don’t think the ride is enjoyable either because I couldn’t see anything. Did you liked the trip besides that?

Not really scared but I didn’t really enjoy it either. I don’t get scared easily but the fact that you couldn’t see anything didn’t make it much better.
Yes I enjoyed the trip! It was a long time ago (it feels like it), but I have great memories of it 🙂

They have two young daughters so they are willing to fly that far for Disney hehe.. I’m not sure I would either 🙂 5 hours is not bad.. my road trip was longer but we rested at my parents house before going there so it was okay 🙂

Yes it’s big. A lot to see and do. We went on a clam shell ride of the Little Mermaid under the sea. It follows the whole book with music & characters toys acting. And we walked in caves like a maze. Disney in Paris sounds cool too. Yeah my son now says he wants to go again but no more roller coasters 😂 he reminds me often about how scared he was hehe
