Disney World, FL

Our vacation to Disney World was an exciting one! We had to get up at 4:00a.m. in order to catch our flight. Once we arrived in Florida, we caught the Disney Magical Express which took us straight to our Pop Century Resort. During our 5-day vacation, we managed to see an abundance of major attractions! Our first stop was the Epcot center. Here, everyone enjoyed the variety of rides, and seeing the beautiful underwater creatures. The rest of the trip was packed with amazing shows, restaurants, and parks; such as the Tower of Terror, DINO Land U.S.A., Hollywood Studios, Peco Bill's Tall Tale Inn and Cafe, and Mickey's Toon Town. We all had an amazing vacation, but we were sad to see it end!

Branson

Our trip to Branson, Missouri started bright and early when we left Mankato at 7a.m. Once we finally arrived, we checked into our hotel, then walked over to Pizza World for supper! The next day, we got to explore the beautiful sites in Branson when we got to Ride the Ducks. Each of us even got to drive the boats! Throughout the next four days we saw tons of amazing things. Some of the major highlights included the Waltzing Waters Show, Dixie Stampede, the Kirby VanBurch Magic Show, Ripley's Believe It or Not, the Brett Family, and the Hamner Barber Variety Show. Overall, the trip was an amazing experience and we all created memories that will last a lifetime!

After the show, we got autographs and a picture with Hamner and Barber!
