Every Kids Dream

Author’s Note: This piece is Personal Narrative of my family trip to Florida that my Family and I take every year.

Envision yourself in a scorching climate down in Florida, then entering through the gates to where every kid’s dream is to go to Disney World. Then after you spend the day in Disney World you and your family go to a beach by were your staying and you see many things you never see at beach like jellyfish and exotic fish. Lastly you spend your last day at a swimming with dolphins place and also getting to hold stingrays. Swimming with Dolphins, Disney World, and Exotic Beaches were some of the things I experienced on my family trip to Florida.

On the first day of our trip we took a direct flight to Tampa Bay. Once we arrived at Tampa Bay we had to drive to Englewood, Florida to my grandma’s house where we would be staying for most of our trip. When we arrived at my grandma’s house we got settled and swam in her pool till the sun went down. We went to bed early that night because the next morning we were going to swim with the dolphins. That next morning I woke up very early to see if any alligators were in the pond behind my grandma house, and sure enough a alligator seemed like it was stalking its prey(a duck) on the mini Island.

Finally just as everyone in my family was woken we were going to swim with the dolphins. All my sisters filed in the car and we were off, the drive the drive was long and tiresome but when we got to Dolphin Cove everyone was ready and energized . We entered the building and my dad quickly paid for us; we got a fast tutorial on what we were going to do when we with the dolphins. My family and I all entered  the water quickly eager to swim with the dolphins. We all got to touch the dolphins and do other things together as a group, then once we finished with that we got to ride on the dolphins back while they swam. The dolphins were very friendly and they were as smooth as silk, this was a once in a lifetime experience. Once my group finished with the Dolphins, we trotted over the sting rays were we got hold the sting rays and pet them. My second day in Florida had been a blast and I knew I’d never forget it.

Seeing that yesterday was a great day I was excited for today. My grandma gave us a suggestion of going to the beach near their house, despite my grandma saying that we deiced to go check it out. When we arrived there we ran right for the water but instead of jumping in the water we sat there in amazement. As we looked in the water we saw all kinds of different fish, beyond that on the shores of the beach we saw tons of shark teeth this beach this was one great beach. We spent the rest of our day at that beach having a great time, snorkeling and looking at the fish or searching through the vast amount of sand for shark teeth.

On our last day in Florida we got to tackle Disney World, I was really thrilled because I hadn’t been to Disney World in a long time and I hadn't really remembered it a lot. When we arrived in Orlando went straight to the Animal Kingdom and rode some of our favorite rides. After we rode the rides we wanted to go to a different park and we still had some time, before it got dark so we toke the monorail to Magic Kingdom to ride some of my mom’s  favorite rides. As soon as we got to magic Kingdom we headed for my mom’s favorite ride Splash Mountain, on the ride Splash Mountain we got soaked during the ride. After the ride it started to get dark and we watched the exciting light parade, alongside the light parade we had a enjoyable time at Disney World.

As we bordered our plane I sat there in my seat thinking of what great things we did in Florida, beyond that this trip was a great bonding experience for our family and we all had a entertaining time. Some of things we experienced in our trip were Disney World, Beaches, and swimming with dolphins were great memories that should never be forgotten.
