All things Disney!

Bula everybody! This week went crazy fast (rode a camel, that's why)!
As you all know I travelled to Florida and met up with the Nimmo family so that I could take selfies with the one and only Morgen Nimmo (not the only reason, but it's the main reason). 

The first day was a hoot! We went to Magic Kingdom in Disney World and got through most of the rides. My favourite were the Teacups (always have loved them), they just crack me up! Second favourite was Space Mountain. I may have worked the kids up and exaggerated how scary it is, because the whole time we were waiting in line we all were like 'omg need to pee, so nervous!'. Yeah.. afterwards they were like 'krystal what were you talking about?! You worked us up for nothing' (haha I exaggerate way to much woops!).  The lines were quite big for most of the rides so we had to do a lot of waiting (ALOT), but it was totally worth it! 
The fireworks were amazing!! 

Everyday was a SCORCHER (hot,hot,hot)! It got up to 30 degrees which is insane to be walking around theme parks everyday. But we dominated it, even though we were all so sweaty and literally felt like we were melting! 
It also would randomly start raining and thunder and lightening. So we got quite wet the first day, but then got smart and bought a garbage bag each to put over us (we looked hilerious)! Although they were a lifesaver for the week. 
Our garbage bags (absolutely horrific). 

The second day, we went to Universal Studios where I rode my FIRST proper roller coaster people (everyone applauses)!! You all should be so proud of me because it was HORRiBLE!! In the line I was so nervous I nearly wet myself and kept on saying 'I can't do it, I'm going back!' But according to the Nimmo's, once your in the line there is no turning back! 
I hopped into the seat and off we went up, then all of a sudden it just goes so fast into the sky (I'm screaming). It drops, it turns, it goes upside down like a million times (well 3 times). I do admit I may have had my eyes closed most of the time praying for Jesus to take the wheel (Morgen recommended that's what I should do), and also breathing like I was giving birth (this is not an exaggeration). Morgen was just laughing the whole time, I think I laughed once and then there was a massive drop so I started screaming again! But I do have to say I conquered one of my biggest fears, and I went on all the roller coasters for the rest of the week (go me)! It is such a great achievement when you conquer your fear (you should conquer yours this week?!). 
This isn't all of it, I just couldn't get the rest in the photo (amateur photographer).
I went to Harry Potter. 
Dr Seus land such fun!
I could be Cat in the Hat (the cat with a very big rat. Great rhyme!) 

Wednesday we had a break from theme parks and went SHOPPING (every girl in the hood say yeahhh)! 
I went in with a mental list of what I wanted to buy and by the end of the day had bought nothing on that list (always seems to be the case, WHYYY?!). 

Thursday was probably one of the most hottest days! We went to Legoland ('everything is awesome,everything is cool when your part of a team!'), rode all the rides, took many selfies with Lego people and got very hot and exhausted. There was hardly any shade or air conditioned buildings. 
Random Lego donkey.
In me mums car brum brum (only a few will get this). 
Now Morgen and I had a private roller coaster ride (Yes people we were the only ones on the ride). We were right at the front and we both sat on the same side, which made it feel like it was going to tip because it wasn't balanced (don't worry we lived). 

Friday we went to Disney Hollywood Studios which was great. The song for the day was 'Let it go' and 'do you want to build a snowman' (stuck in my head all day). There were a lot of shows and the buildings were amazing, all made out like we were on set of a movie. I also got my photo taken with Mickey, we also danced together and he just wouldn't let me go (he wanted me! Creepy or not?) 

That night we headed to Downtown Disney to have dinner at Planet Hollywood (had great music). 
Jakob and I at planet Hollywood. He finally called me krystal after calling me aunty for some of the week (so funny).
 
It was a fun filled week! We laughed so hard the whole week, and said some pretty random stuff (Morgen and I went cray cray)! I enjoyed hanging with the Nimmo's it was such FUN! Loved being with some of the New Zealand family, made me miss home and all the people back there. 

This is probably my favourite photo as we are meant to be doing Titanic, but hmm yeah it just looks like one of those awkward photos. Made us laugh so much as we looked back on it that night and wondered what the heck we were doing! 

I am now back in my home in New York excited for what this week brings!
