Precious Time in Tokyo Disney Land

I remember my parents were always busy to work for us. I often stayed at my home with my sisters when my friends and most of the people in Japan went out because my parents had to work together. I was sometimes sad. My parents sometimes had a special break to take us to some places: around Japan such as Tokyo, Kyoto, Okinawa, and so on, and Guam. They were very good parents because they let us experience a lot even though they were very busy. I had been to Disney Land in Tokyo seven times before graduating from elementary school. The best memory is my second time I went to Disney Land because I had special things: a ride, a lunch, and a letter.

I remember I went on a ride with my father or mother many times in Disney Land. Actually, the second time is my first memory to go to Disney Land because the first time was when I was 2 or 3 years old. My parents took us to the adventure place for children because I could not get into all rides because of my age. I was 6 years old. I found the Dumbo ride, which is an elephant flying and go up and down. I could ride with just one person. So, I went on the ride with my father and mother in rotation many times. It was very comfortable because I felt the wind and my father or mother next to me on the ride were all mine. My parents would be amazed at my wanting to ride many times. However, they kept riding with me until I was satisfied with the ride.

Second, my parents took us to a special restaurant for lunch. My sisters and I had the Mickey Mouse Pancakes and orange juice with Donald Duck Cup. Some Disney characters came to our table while we were eating. First, Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy came and took photos with us. After they left, a wolf and a fox from Pinocchio came to our table. I remember that my sisters and I were scared and cried behind my parents. However, Pinocchio came to our table and we smiled soon because he had a funny performance for us. Pinocchio fought against the wolf and the fox and drove them away. Then, I shook his left hand, my twin sister shook his right hand, and my younger sister shookPinocchio right foot. I really had a precious time at the restaurant.

Third, I received a special letter from Mickey Mouse after I came back home. I could bask in the afterglow of the trip after my parents went back to their work. I wrote a letter to him on my way to Disney Land in the plane. It was hard for me to write Japanese because I just started to learn to write Japanese. I rewrote the letter again and again. My mother helped me to write the letter. The content was very easy because I just wrote my name, age, elementary school’s name, and favorites. Then, I gave Mickey Mouse the letter when I met him in the special restaurant for lunch. And I received a letter back from Mickey Mouse. Actually, my father told a staff member our home address. I heard the story from my parents recently. I can talk with my family about the trip a lot because we had a nice time in Disney Land.

In conclusion, my parents are still busy. I can not go out with them when most of the people in Japan go out with their parents. I understand their work, so I am not sad now. It is natural in my family. However, my parents take us somewhere when they get a break until now. And they let us experience as much as possible. I want to take my parents on the best trip when I earn money. And I would like to talk with my family about the trip a few years later.
