YES, EVERYTHING TOGETHER IN A TRIP OF 9 DAYS.
This was not a simple March break trip, we went there in honour of Al, my host mum's dad. His last wish was to go with his whole family to Disney World but unfortunately he couldn't make it. That didn't stop them, all his family (including me) remembered him when we took pictures with Mickey, when we went up to the Tower of Terror or when we watched amazed the fireworks at Magic Kingdom. He was present in every single moment of the trip.
Day 1: EPCOT
We woke up in Buffalo, USA after driving from Barrie the day before. We left behind winter and cold weather and flew to Florida, sooooo warm and sooooo sunny.
The theme park is about "tomorrow, future and space". But that was not all, it has an area with pavilions from many different countries where you can find local food, rides, shops and their amazing culture (although Spain was not in one of those :,( ) We visited Mexico, France, Morocco, USA, Italy, Japan, China... it was amazing.
Es un parque de atracciones sobre el futuro y el espacio, aunque mi parte favorita fueron zonas que representaban distintos países en el mundo. Pudimos descubrir su comida, atracciones, bares, edificios, tiendas... Creedme, es muy chulo eso de creer que estás en la Gran Muralla China, o comiendo caramelo en Alemania, o unos fish and chips en Reino Unido.
Getting ready to go !
Feeling like a kid !
Day 2: TYPHOON LAGOON WATER PARK
Yes, water park!!! Well, it was 28 degrees and there's nothing better than going to the pool wearing your bathing suit and sunglasses while your friends are in Canada below 0 :)))
There were soooo many rides we didn't have enough time to try all of them, but my favourite one was the wave pool where the wave was up more than 6 m!!
Sí, un parque acuático :) No hay nada mejor que bañarte en pleno marzo!!
Later that day we went to Downtown Disney, one of my favourite places in the whole park. Shops, restaurants and people. It's crazy but magical at the same time. That night we had dinner in an Irish pub, and believe me, I haven't tried better fish and chips than the ones I had there :P
Downtown Disney es un de mis sitios favoritos en todo el parque. Tiendas de todo tipo, y restaurantes de todas partes del mundo, y mucha, pero muuuucha gente. Sinceramente, me encantó.
Love it !!
Day 3: MAGIC KINGDOM
When you talk about Disney you just think about that big blue castle... well, that is Cinderella's castle and it's in Magic Kingdom and I had the chance to go inside it!! There you could find anything you have dreamt about... it's such a magical place that I can't describe it. Princesses, Mickey's friends, themed restaurants, rides, fireworks, shows...
El típico castillo de Disney, el que aparece al principio de todas las películas... tuve la suerte de entrar en él!! Magic Kingdom es uno de los parques más visitados de Disney World y la verdad es que no hay palabras para describirlo, todo lo que has soñado está en este sitio!!
Without a doubt, the moment of the Castle lighting was priceless and everybody would love it, no matter how old you are, where you are from or what you like... it was followed by an amazing Fireworks show and an Electrical parade.
Uno de los mejores momentos fue cuando el castillo empezó a iluminarse. Fueron unos 10 min donde no hay preocupaciones de ningún tipo. No se cómo, pero consiguen que te olvides de todo y que por unos minutos pienses en que todo, por muy difícil que sea, tiene solución si crees y tienes esperanza.
Well, I have to say too that we stayed up until the park closed, at 2am. YES, 2 AM!! DISNEY IS EXHAUSTING!!
Be our guest restaurant
Haha so creepy
SPAIN !!!
Super fun
Magical
Priceless
Day 4: FREE DAY (?) NO, MUCH MORE FUN
We didn't have breakfast at the resort, we went to Chef Mickey's!! Where we could meet Goofy, Minnie, Donald, Pluto and Mickey :)
After that, we went to the pool and we had dinner at Ohana, where we tried the same food Lilo & Stitch are used to eat (just kidding haha) and we learnt how to the dance the Hula :D
Looks good eh?
My fav :)
Love these ones!!
Day 5: DISNEY'S HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS
My favourite park with my favourite rides and shows. We went on a "journey into the movies" since the 20's, we went into Andy's room with Woody and Buzz Lightyear, we walked around New York and San Francisco, we tried to be a Jedi in Star Wars, we felt as the kids in "Honey, I shrunk the kids", we walked by Cinderella's carriage, we "sang in the rain", we went on a roller coaster with Aerosmith, we went down on a broken, old and enchanted elevator, and we saw an amazing show in which Mickey defeated all the villains from Disney movies.
Sin duda, es mi parque favorito donde nunca te cansas de ver y hacer cosas. Todos nosotros fuimos en un viaje por todas las películas de cine desde los años 20, fuimos a la habitación de Andy con Woody y Buzz, paseamos por Nueva York y San Francisco, hicimos pruebas para ser un Jedi en Star Wars, nos sentimos como los niños de "Cariño, he encogido a los niños", vimos el carruaje de Cenicienta, "cantamos bajo la lluvia", nos montamos en un montaña rusa con Aerosmith, caímos en picado montados en un ascensor roto, viejo y encantado, y vimos en un espectáculo como Mickey derrota a todos los villanos de las películas Disney.
SOUNDS LIKE FUN, DOESN'T IT? :D
Best people ever
Walking around New York
Fantasmic!!
Another water park, but I swear this was much bigger, better and excited than the other one. It seemed like a ski mountain where everything was covered by "snow". We went down watersides, raft rides and another wave pool, like if we were skiing, snow tubing or snowboarding.
Otro parque acuático pero esta vez muchísimo más grande, más divertido y mejor. Tiene la intención de simular una estación de ski, por eso cuando bajas en los toboganes de agua es como si estuvieras bajando por una montaña de nieve, esquiando o bajando en trineo.
Day 7: ANIMAL KINGDOM
Last day of this awesome trip, Animal Kingdom was waiting for us. We went on a safari like if we were in Africa where we saw elephants, giraffes or gorillas. After that we meet some African drummers are more Disney characters until we arrived to the Everest in Asia. Seriously, you don't think you are in Florida, everything looks so real that you just think you are on a trip reaaaally far away.
Animal Kingdom, el reino de los animales, que te transporta a Africa y Asia donde parece que estás allí de verdad. Fuimos en un safari, vimos elefantes, jirafas o gorilas, e incluso llegamos a ir al Everest, en Asia. Estando allí, pareces que estás taaaan lejos de casa, que no parece que estés en Florida.
All of us!!
Love this pic, you'll never be too old for Disney :)
LAST DAY :,(
There's nothing more upsetting than saying good bye to warm weather, sun and fun, and saying hello again to winter, cold and routine. Whatever, we had an awesome time in family although it was for a lot of people the first time outside Ontario haha.
Os aseguro que no hay nada más deprimente que decir adiós al buen tiempo y al sol y decir hola de nuevo al frío y a la rutina. Aún así, ha sido un viaje inolvidable con gente increíble, y estoy súper agradecida a todos ellos por haberme incluido.
Priceless moments, in honour of Al with all his family. Thanks to all of them for include me in this trip, I had an awesome with all of you you :)
I have to say that Disney is made for everybody in the world, it's not made for kids. No matter how old you are, YOU'D LOVE IT!
Disney no está hecho solo para niños, sino para el todo el mundo. No importa la edad que tengas, de donde eres o que te gusta hacer, Disney te encantaría :)
