I really enjoy spending a day at the beach. Nothing compares to diving into the warm, foamy, aqua waters of the ocean. I love to boogie board when the surf is full of action. The waves push and pull you like a magnet. The strength of the water propels you forward like an arrow shot from a bow. In the end, you find yourself washed up on the sand like seaweed. Then, you get up, carry your board back into the water, and ride the waves to feel the thrill again. The first time I ever experienced the ocean was on a trip to Florida in 2009. It was during the New Jersey Teacher’s Convention in November. My mom, dad, and I decided to go to Disney World in Orlando. My aunt and uncle have a timeshare there, so we used that for our stay. Disney World was a colorful experience. It was a cartoon come to life. Disney characters roamed the park and greeted everyone like …show more content…
Another wave came and pushed me down. I landed on my butt. My face and body felt the shock of being consumed by salty, sandy water. I gasped and wiped my face. I stood up, ready to try again. With my dad’s coaching, I mastered the wave. I rode it in and slid onto the shore victorious. I continued to boogie board, feeling more confident with each successful try. As my skin pruned, I could feel the shells beneath my feet etch cuts and scrapes on my soles like glass shards in a tire. After a while, the salty water made my cuts feel like they were burning, like walking on hot coals. My arms, chest, and knees suffered the same fate from sliding into the shell - covered shore. It was well worth the pain, however. My dad continued to give me side by side lessons on boogie boarding until I was totally confident in my skills. I felt like I was flying on the water. I have never felt anything so fun, free, and exciting. I couldn’t imagine spending another day in Florida without coming to the beach to boogie board. I was hooked like a giant tuna to a fishing
As I looked backed at what seemed to be a decent sized wave, I started paddling with all my might, digging through the water, deeper and deeper. The wave came closer and I felt a push from my cousin as I caught the wave. “Stand up” my cousin yelled behind me as the monstrous wave began to swallow me up. I stood up, rode the wave all the way to the shore, and fell in love with the sport of surfing. Since that day, I have loved everything one could ever love about the sport: The salty water as it touched my body, the push of the wave as it stood me up on my smooth yet sticky board, and the exhilarating rush that I felt after every perfect ride. But not quite everything about the sport came easy to me, it took a long ride to find the love I have for the sport today. When I first started competitively surfing, I
Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida is an exciting vacation destination featuring two theme parks, Universal Citywalk nightlife and three beautifully themed Loews hotels.

The next park you could visit in the Walt Disney World park is Epcot. Epcot was created in 1966 by Walt Disney it stands for Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow. There is many different worlds you can visit in Epcot such as Mission: Space, or even The Seas With Nemo and Friends.

Do you know what Disney world is, wait of course you do well I am going to tell you all about my favorite place. Keep reading because it is going to get way better. When I am done you are going to want to go there.
I try to spend most of my time by the ocean every day I am there because I feel like I cannot get enough of it. On a typical day I try to wake up early but that doesn’t always happen. I try to do this because in the early morning the beach peaceful and the sunrise incredible. And at this early hour you can also find the best seashells and sand dollars, too. After an early morning stroll, usually with my aunt and uncle who are the only other ones to get up early, I go back to the house to change into my bathing suit. I put my suntan lotion on for a long day on the sand. After that I go down by the water and get my beach blanket out so that I can sunbathe for most of the day. I will take a few breaks to go into the water, but only when I get so hot that I can’t stand it. I do enjoy the ocean, and although the waves are really rough during high tide, it’s still a lot of fun to be out there in the water getting jostled around. I enjoy boogie boarding or
"Let us sacrifice our today so that our children can have a better tomorrow." was said by a very wise man, the former President of India A. P. G. Abdul Kalam. In this quote he does not only mean children but he means the people close to us in general, we must learn to sacrifice for others so that we're not the only ones becoming better but the people around us are too. Furthermore, when I was in sixth grade I was initially going to go on a two-day music trip to Hershey Park in Pennsylvania, and I was very excited to finally head out into the world by myself without my parents holding my hand. Not only that, but this was something I had been preparing for months to perform the first time in front of a judge and be graded
In the 1970’s many major events happened. Some including the first Earth day, Disney World opening, the Beatles breaking up, and so many more things. Michael Jackson, also, started going solo around this time period. Microsoft and Apple came out during the mid-1970’s. Many things that have changed history.
The main reason for this project is to inspect three organization's Annual Report, Income Statement, and Balance Sheet. I will also prepare a written statement regarding the development or decrease for the three companies. The three companies that I have chosen are Disney World, Cedar Point, and Six Flags. Why should I invest in these companies? I will tell you why? Disney is definitely a great company to invest in because they operate in five major segments like Media Networks, Parks and Resorts, and in Studio Entertainment. Walt Disney can take enormous names and put them into amusement parks, toys, and computer games or whatever they want to use them for this gives the company different chances to advertise every last one of its brands.
Disney World is known as the most magical place on earth, and not just because of their fairy tales. It is really the most magical place on earth and is worth the cost to visit. It is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Another theme park that my family loved at Walt Disney World was Disney’s Animal Kingdom. They have so many great animals to see and their environments and trails are beautiful. One of my favorite things at Animal Kingdom was the Tree of Life. This massive tree is so realistic and the detail of all the animal carvings is astonishing. It too has a great parade, and amazing food. Our seven-day stay at Disney included lodging at the Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, which added to our love of this park and
This report is aim to analyze profitable adventure of The Walt Disney Company to set up Disneyland theme park in India. As one of main emerging markets in Asia, India might be the next destination for The Walt Disney Company to target on. Therefore, this report uses a series of marketing tools to demonstrate the macro-environment and micro-environment in India, such as PESTEL, SWOT, Porter’s Five Forces Model and Self Referencing Criteria.

1) What is the Disney Difference and how will it affect the company’s corporate, competitive and functional strategies?
As stated in the book International Business, there are three major operating objectives that encourage businesses to engage in international business. These three objectives include expanding sales, acquiring recourses, and to minimize risk. I feel that Disney was motivated by all three of these aspects, and possibly others when deciding whether or not he should move more of his business abroad. After seeing how successful the two theme parks in the United States were doing, the next option would be to expand. By expanding the parks into five international parks, Disney’s theme parks outside the United States would reportedly exceed that inside the country. I think that Disney also wanted to diversify and to let others experience
After a couple restroom breaks and some lunch we finally arrived at Splash Resort in Panama City, Florida! The ocean was breathtaking and as magnificent as ever it was one of those how-can-anything-be-so-beautiful kind of things. It just made me speechless, the water was perfect, the air was warm, and I just wanted to jump right in and start swimming in the water. While in Panama City we did a couple different activities. Some of which included, obviously going to the beach for a couple of days.
