Four Parks, One World!

I want to give you girls some information about Disney World. Disney World is a HUGE!

Disney World has 4 theme parks and 18 different hotels! I will be telling you about our hotel in a few days—but I will tell you this, there is not just one pool, there are two!

Today I will tell you about four different parks the and a couple places we won’t be going.

Let’s get the bad news out of the way, shall we? Disney World has two water parks with water slides, pools, and other fun things. We won’t be visiting the water parks on this trip because it costs too much money.



However, there are four other parks that we will visit!

The first park is called the Magic Kingdom. It’s “icon”, or park symbol, is “Cinderella Castle”! The rides and shows here feature many of the cartoon characters you know and love. There are seven lands in the Magic Kingdom—Main Street, U.S.A., Adventureland, Frontierland, Liberty Square, Fantasyland, Tomorrowland and Mickey’s Toontown.



Epcot’s park icon is a big silver ball called “Spaceship Earth”. There are two “worlds” here. Future World and World Showcase. Future World has rides and shows that focus on science and human creativity. World Showcase presents buildings, culture and social heritages from 11 different countries (Mexico, Norway, China, Germany, Italy, United States, Japan, Morocco, France, United Kingdom and Canada).



Hollywood Studios has a “Sorcerer’s Hat” as its park symbol. Have you seen Fantasia? If not, you may want to watch it! This park focuses on the movies and television. You can learn about how television shows and movies are made. There are also several shows and rides based on different movies and TV shows.



Animal Kingdom’s icon is the “Tree of Life”. The focus of this park is animals! It has animal exhibits like a zoo, but it also has rides, shows and other live entertainment experiences. You can even go on an African Safari and walk trails to see animals like tigers, gorillas, fruit bats and naked mole rats! My favorite show, Finding Nemo: The Musical, is in Animal Kingdom. You will love the show!


 I hope you like your gift for today—it is a CD of music from the four different parks!
