Disney World

In the morning, the sky was blue with white puffy clouds. I was really excited as we drove in the car to Disney world. When we arrived, clouds started to build up. I was a little worried if it would rain, but nothing stopped me from going on the rides and shows. 
One of my favourite rides was the haunted house.  I was first escorted into a small room. cobwebs hung from the rusty chandeliers which hung from the black sealing of the mansion. Paintings of dead people were displayed on each wall which had authentic wallpaper. It was very dark which created the scary feeling. The first room was nothing compared to the highlight. Everyone hopped themselves into a black cart which travelled along a track. The carts made their way down the dark hallways and rooms of the haunted house. 3D ghosts popped out of no where and dark shadows were made on the high walls. In sight I saw an old-fashioned candle floating at the far end of a hallway. Loud booming noises and screeches made their way throughout the house and the carts twisted and turned to see a frightening zombie creep up at you out of the ground. The ghosts looked so realistic. I had no idea how they made them look so real! I can't explain fully how scary and frightening it was, but it was so fun. 
Rain was poring heavily at one point of the day. Several parts of the grounds were four inches up my ankles. I thought how it had to be the worst weather to experience in Disney World. I went on a twelve meter high ride, and the rain was pouring on me. I sat in a little 'rocket' seat and I was lifted high in the air and everyone in their seats span really fast. It was really cool to be up high.
 One of the best rides was Splash Mountain! My dad, my brothers and I hopped into a boat and we flowed along the water to a point where we zoomed down a long and steep hill. Water sprayed back at our faces and our clothes were soaked. Because many people had gone home, we went on again and again. We would have had to wait an hour for one ride. You learn patience at Disney World. Our photo was taken during the ride and my face was in shock as we started to zoom down the long water slide. 
My mum wanted to take us to "Its a small World". We were in a boat and the boat went along a river past many rooms which had its own country theme. The puppets were so adorable and cute, but my brother Carter looked at them and said "They either look creepy or scary".
Of course they were not creepy to me! they were sooo cute! The song (its a small world) was in my head for ages after that. 
We also went on a roller coaster ride. Jarom (my brother) and I were at the very front seat. It was so scary!!! I was in shock but I had so much fun. 
I went on so many rides that I can't remember all of them.
The rain began to stop. It was so surprising! 
When it got dark we went on a train ride around Disney World. When we came to a stop, we were just in time for the street parade. It was amazing! All the street lights were turned off, as different themed vehicles with sparkling lights in every possible place drove down the street with Disney characters waving on top. There was Pinokio, Cinderella, Snow white and the seven dwarfs and many others. Many characters from Disney movies were dancing along the road. It was so cool. 
After the parade, I had something to eat before getting a good spot to see the 'Disney fireworks spectacular'!!! 
The fireworks were right over the castle. The castle was lit up and changed into many colours. Before the fireworks, there was a big grand projection on the castle. Many photos, characters and themes were displayed on it.  At one point it looked like the castle was shredding to pieces, but gained its form again. It is very difficult to explain how wonderful it was. The fireworks then started! It was awesome. The whole entire sky was lit up with beautiful lights sparkling in the dark night sky. There were fireworks which were shaped as stars and hearts. The many colourful fireworks exploded in the air. during the spectacular scene, beautiful music was on.  It felt so magical!
We went on a couple of others rides after that. The day went so quickly! by the time we got home , it was one 'o' clock in the morning. I went straight to bed and crashed on my bed. That was how exhausted I was from the wonderful day I had!
