Day 22: My favorite vacation was definitely when my family (including grandma :) ) and I went to Disney World for my Make-A-Wish when I was 12. It was an incredible trip! We stayed in the stunning Grand Floriddean, went to Give Kids the World a few times. And let me tell you that that place is also incredible. All the workers are volunteers who wait around a year or two on a waiting list. They have a movie theater, miniature golf, ice cream parlor, horse back riding, and so much more for kids who wish to go to Florida through a program (such as mine was Make-A-Wish. Some states are different). The kids that go are often very sick or have serious illnesses, so it can be heartbreaking to be there at the same time sometimes, but it's lifetouching. Everything is free, and the kids that go can just have fun.
But back to the actual vacation, we went to Disney World and Universal Studios for a week.We were there during hurricane season, so it was very humid and we had a lot of rain for a couple of days. But we were able to go to the front of the lines and everything was free. The entire vacation was such a blast! Make a Wish is incredible for all that they do.

Since it was a while ago I don't have any of the pics scanned onto my computer, but I can ensure that it was the most amazing trip.
