2 Peas Challenge

What's a trip you took as a child that you will always remember. and why??? blog about it.

I was about 8 years old, and we went to Disney World. It was our first time there, and I was crazy about Pluto (and still am) While walking through the Magic Kingdom, I spotted him. He wasn't your average size souvenir stuffed animal. He was about 3 feet tall, and oh! so soft. He was so cute, and had soft ears. However, how could an 8 year old carry this 3ft. tall Pluto around? I think we spent 10 days in Disney and each day in each park, I came across him. My sister got her small Chip and Dale for her present, but all I wanted was Pluto. [did I mention that back then in 1978, this Pluto was $100??] Yep, $100. So, now, our last day arrives, and we are packing in the room. There is a knock at the door, the man from the gift shop is standing there, holding my Pluto. I was elated....I was screaming...I remember hugging my dad so tight. So, off we go to the airport...it was Pan Am airlines to be exact, and guess what? He was too big for the cargo hold, so my dad bought him an airline ticket [I could just imagine how much that cost], and he flew home sitting next to me. [It has been 28 years since then, and I still have this Pluto] :)

This was the first family vacation that we all flew together. We all had the BEST time, and I will never forget the smile that my dad brought to my face that day. [i do have a photo somewhere, so if I find it, i'll be sure to post it here)

Have a great day.....thanks for reading!
