I am taking this straight out of a current Trip Report...there will be more pictures coming up of some of the parties and other things offered at GKTW and she has some pictures that are not included in this post...
Noah's Wish Trip
Noah is three and has multiple disabilites. His prognosis is poor, but he is a fighter and has lived much longer than anyone expected! Noah is from Canada and received his Wish in late Feb and early March. His Mom has started his TR and I copied this straight from it...It has wonderful pictures of a new playground at GKTW and of the famous carousel.
Thought you guys that have supported GKTW would appreciate some pictures of a precious family really enjoying their time there!!!!
I got to hang out with them, since I was in Orlando at the same time...this was a magical day for all of us! 
(My notes are in PINK!)
Priceless.
Thank you for supporting GKTW!!!!!

I got to hang out with them, since I was in Orlando at the same time...this was a magical day for all of us! (My notes are in PINK!)After we had our fill of the train, it was time to check out Matthew's Boundless Playground.
This is an amazing, fully wheelchair accessible, play structure. It is set up like a giant Candyland game board. It was so neat to be able to bring Noah right up to the top in his stroller.
(Check out the VILLA's in the background. These are where the kids sleep! Castle themed...I felt like I was in a dream!
Noah's brother and sister...Joshua and Kailyn!
The playground has lots of elements at just the right height for a child in a wheelchair.
We had tons of fun getting to know Mary better and checking the place out with her.
After a while, we figured we'd better go find Brad, who should be done with orientation by now. So after dragging the kids away, we headed back. But, hey, the carousel is running! We had to stop for a ride or two...
Fully wheelchair accessible of course...
The carousel turned out to be Noah's absolute favorite thing to do at GKTW. We have been working on teaching him a bit of sign language, and he began signing "more" on the carousel. By the end of the week, he would sign "more" throughout the entire ride.
Priceless.
