Spring Break

Have you ever been on a vacation before? One that you didn’t even know you were going on until you got the airport. Well, over spring break one of those vacations happened to me. It was one of the biggest surprises of my life.


First, this all started Saturday the 1st day of spring break. It was a normal Saturday morning. I invited my friend Carson over. Until my Mom said we are going to visit our Aunt in Milwaukee. We were driving and we going towards the airport which I didn’t find weird because my Aunt lives near the airport. Once we were driving into the airport, I asked my Mom where we were going. She said we were going to Florida. I couldn't believe it. I telling my Dad “Are you lyin’”. 


I couldn’t believe it, my Dad wasn’t lying and it only took 2 hours to get there. Once we got there it was already 9:00 pm. If all the luggage and the shuttle. We didn’t get to the hotel till about 11:00. While we were there we went to Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, a part Animal Kingdom, and my favorite, Universal. 


One of my favorite parts of Universal was the Harry Potter section. It was a life size replica of the city Hogsmeade. But the best part was Hogwarts. The castle was basically a ride. We waited 70 minutes for this ride and that was in the morning. Anyways, you would sit down in a chair for a roller coaster and you fly around in caves with big dragons and spiders. Also you would sometime go into a room where it was a big screen. So you would be flying with Harry Potter. It was so real that when it looked that I was getting close to the ground, on the screen, I would want to lift my feet up.

 
Secondly, my favorite ride of all was called the “Rockit”. It was a roller coaster that when you sat down, there is a touch screen on the handles. First you would pick a genre, then you’re artist and song. So during the ride you would listen to that song. I picked “Can’t touch this” by MC Hammer. It goes straight up and then straight back down. It was so awesome and I only had to wait 45 minutes.

I had such a great time. I was so surprise when I went. I just couldn't believe it. If you ever go there I encourage you to go to the Harry Potter(Universal), Rockit(Universal), Expedition Everest(Animal Kingdom), see the Fantasmic show at Hoolywood studios, and go on the Buzz Lightyear ride, because it is just that awesome(Magic Kingdom).

  1. I remember when I went to Florida. I had so much fun. I went to the same places you did except instead of animal kingdom I went to the Kennedy Space Center. at this time there wasn't a harry potter section at universal. We got the biggest hotel room ever and it was right next to one of those golf course pond things which happened to be home to a baby alligator. I like how you describe the rides at universal and hollywood studios
