To compare and contrast two memorable moments in my life is a difficult challenge for me. I have decided to choose my trips to Disney World and Universal. While both of these magnificent, magical places are located 8.5 miles from each other they are fairly similar and enormously different. Disneyworld is located in Florida, more precisely Kissimmee, but since it’s a suburb of Orlando, most people just say it’s in Orlando. I’ve had a total of five trips in my lifetime. Meanwhile, I have only had two amazing trips to Universal. I don’t remember much about my trips to Disney, except tiny little pieces, excluding my last two trips. This happened because I was so young. I do remember bits and pieces of my first trip to Universal. I think this is because I was only six years old. Most of what I remember of my first trip to Universal Studios is standing in line on the opening day of “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” at Islands of Adventure. My second time I can remember very vividly because it was this past year for the terrifying Halloween Horror Nights. Although both are well-known amusement parks, they have many incredible differences. For example, Universal’s Harry Potter exhibit, has been ranked number one on the Trip Advisor ranking …show more content…
This happens to be because Universal is mainly based on movies and cartoons generally intended for older viewers. Universal hosts one of the scariest Halloween Horror Haunted Houses in the United States. (I got to experience it first-hand.) Universal does this for a selected month. Disney hosts their own, Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween party. This is where all the little kids dress up. While Universal’s are only at night, Disney hosts theirs from September 15 to November 1, staying open later to give people a longer park day for more extravagant Disney
Nevertheless, when the last weekend in September rolls around, be prepared to be scared. At $36 for general admission, there is access to all haunted houses, all operating rides, and live entertainment at no extra charge. Monsters like the Joker, the Grim Reaper, and more roam the park throughout the night, but if the creepiness is too much, vendors perched throughout the park sell “Monster B’Gone Necklaces” so the ghouls don’t diminish any fun. Since the public enjoys being scared at Halloween time, the main focus is predominantly the haunted houses.
You also go out to haunted attractions like corn mazes and hayrides. Also Halloween is on October 31st and Dia
The Disney World Resort has a massive size and is composed of four theme parks and two water parks. Due to Disney World’s massive size, the resort takes many more days to achieve the Disney experience and families must choose some attractions to not visit. While some people think that Disney World is impossible to navigate, it provides a complimentary transportation system to get from park to park and getting between theme parks and resorts. Disney World is also able to offer a wider variety and more attractions to experience than Disneyland. Also, Disney World has greater potential for expansion.

Four years ago we went to Disney World just my family and me, we had so much fun that we decided we would go again in four years. We started planning the next trip almost immediately; we were all so excited to go back. It was not going to be just us this time; my aunt and uncle’s family would be coming with us this time. I remember waiting those four years, and they felt like forever. When it finally came time to start packing (three days in advance) we made sure to prepare for what we did not last time.

" Disney theme parks were built for the whole family to enjoy and they do a fine job stressing that. If you pay close attention to their advertisements you will see that they are not always aimed for children, in fact they are aimed at the parents most of the time with little phrases such as "Let the Memories Begin" and "This is Where the Magic Happens." Even the animation films are made to please the parents, with their good morals and some jokes that are meant for the child not to understand. In addition, the Disney Store has its own Home Decor department which is intended to satisfy the parents' wants as well as their children's, while the child is browsing through the toys, the parent is browsing through the Home Decor section.
Loud Disney theme music and gorgeous colors are flaunted on every corner. There is not one person in the place that is not having a great time.

Everybody is a kid at heart. Well, getting occupied with all our to dos and responsibilities sometimes make us really look for that thrill and excitement which is all about sojourns, breaking free and simply having fun, just like what we used to do as a child. That’s why I love theme parks! It’s a place for thrills, exhilaration and amusement, where hyper-energy and creativity thrive and joy-rides are but typical. Do you know that theme parks started from the recreational idea of traditional parks?
The complexity of the product offering allows customers to have numerous price points and ability to decide how much of the Disney experience they want to enjoy. For examples, the offerings include transportation, resort accommodations, and meal plans. The larger product mix creates entry into the resort, hotel, and restaurant businesses. Although Disney was not first in the theme park market, its large size and connection to kid ’s movies was revolutionary.
It was the seventh day and I saw my grandfather and dad talking my grandfather said the last word and they hugged I was so confused what was going on, but it stayed in the back of my mind the rest of the trip. On the tenth day we went to the Hollywood Studies. I rode a ride called the Tower of Terror it was one of the best rides I had been on in Disney it is a complete adrenalin rush. I also went on the great movie ride which is cool because you find out so much about old movies and I love it my sister didn’t like it.
