Milana's big dream came true with the trip to Disneyland. She also had company, Lotti also 10 years old, who also wanted to get to this fairytale place.
When we boarded the plane in Budapest, the Wizz Air team awaited us with a gift, and the girls could also sit in the cockpit.

We arrived at the hotel in Disneyland early Friday afternoon, where we occupied our rooms and the girls even received gifts. After that, we started the afternoon at Walt Disney Studios, where we immediately got on the Tower of Terror roller coaster, one of the scariest, but nothing held the girls back! With the help of the Wish Program, we received wristbands that allowed us to sit on all games without standing in line. So in half a day we got to everything the girls wanted at Walt Disney Studios.

After dinner, we were able to watch the big fireworks in Disneyland Park from the front row.

We spent Saturday in the Disneypark, we were also able to try all the games and roller coasters without queuing.

After the parade of Disney characters in the afternoon, we sat on Milana’s and Lotti's favorite toys several times. The girls got along very well, they really enjoyed the trip, we even took pictures with Winnie the Pooh!

On Sunday morning we set off for Budapest, and the Wizz Air team welcomed us on board with delicious coffee and tea on the way back.

The trip was a lifetime experience for both children.

We would like to thank our sponsors, Wizz Air Hungary Ltd., Disneyland Paris, the Budapesti Értéktőzsde Zrt., as well as our private sponsors, for making Milana's dream come true!

Melánia’s and Míra's old dream came true with the trip to Paris, they were really looking forward to the day of departure. We were able to travel with the plane of the Wizz Air airline, and then a minibus was waiting for us at the airport, so we arrived comfortably at the hotel. It was easy to get to all the attractions from the hotel. About the attractions we were given a long wish list from the girls in advance. It included traditional tourist attractions, but also included trendy, modern attractions.

We had a stunning view from the 3rd floor of the Eiffel Tower, which we reached in daylight, but we were also able to enjoy Paris also moments of a ball game in the nearby stadium, because we arrived in the French capital on the last days of the Paralympics, but we couldn't tell from the height what kind of game it was. Due to the Olympic events, we had a lot of problems with lockdowns, and thus temporary stands, halls, and tents were placed in our photos as the foreground or background of the historic buildings and bridges, but that's okay, this made the trip even more unforgettable and u in the evening thanks to the ticket purchased at a lucky time. From above, we could even see some exciting momnique.

We admired the Notre-Dame Cathedral (as far as the scaffolding allowed), soaked up the atmosphere on the banks of the Seine, and then took a boat ride on the river, getting a wonderful panorama of the nearby buildings and attractions. Later we also crossed the most famous bridges of Paris. During our walks, we visited the Champs-Élysées, where the girls shopped, the Arc de Triomphe, the Pompidou Center, we saw the Church of the Invalides with Napoleon's tomb, and of course we couldn't miss the Montmartre district either, and even before the crowds we managed to get up to the high dome of the Sacré-Coeur after admiring the interior of the church. The Opera, the Louvre and its pyramids, the Bastille, Trocadéro and Concorde Square, the Tuileries Garden, Pigalle, Moulin Rouge, the "I love you" wall... we can't even list how many places we visited. In the Atelier des Lumières, the hall that used to be an iron foundry, the walls came to life and we were dazzled by a captivating light show in every corner of the huge room, accompanied by musical background. We almost had to skip the Cédric Grolet Confectionery after seeing the snaking line, but luckily we found a "loophole" in the neighboring street, where we managed to get the famously delicious snacks and coffee, although not quite from the same range. We went to Place Vendôme, where not only Napoleon proclaims his glory at the top of a column, but you can find here also the Ritz Carlton hotel, from which Princess Diana departed on her last journey.

By the end of the third day, we were probably all moving routinely in the intricate, many-faceted underground labyrinth of the metro network.

The trip to Paris went very well, the girls suddenly couldn't articulate what they liked the most.

We had a very special experience with Lotti, who waited two years for the trip to Eurodisney. Milana was also with us, who also wanted to be able to get to this fairytale place.

Zita is a very nice smiling little girl. During most of her stay in the hospital, she looks at her small phone, on which she watches her favorite stories and tik-tok videos. Her wish was to see her favorites on a bigger screen. Thanks to the Magic Lamp Foundation, this wish came true very quickly, so Zita became the happy owner of a tablet.

The little girl and her mother were very surprised, but very happy that a small child's big dream came true so quickly. At that moment, the happy smile of a small, beautiful red-haired six-year-old girl lit up the hearts of her mother and the wish coordinators. Because giving and bringing joy, putting a smile on the face of a sick child is a wonderful mission.

Thank you for the support if the CHARITIES AID FOUNDATION OF AMERICA, with their help we were able to fulfill Zita's wish!

Kornél asked the Magic Lamp for a super MTB bike so that he could spend more time outdoors and make excursions with his family when the weather is good.

We wish Kornél a great time and cloudless days!

We thank our private donors, including the students and teachers of the American International School of Budapest, for their support, with their help we were able to fulfill Kornél's wish!

Linda's hobby is photography. Unfortunately, she had to undergone many operations, so, like many children who can wish from the Magic Lamp, she couldn't wait for her dream to come true.

She wanted to spend a few days at the Lake Balaton with her mother, and she had the special request to spend it on the southern coast, because she wanted to capture the famous sunset on Lake Balaton. And the perfect site for this is the south shore.

Mr. Peter Knoll, the director of the Resort, our kind supporter, learning about this special wish, came to our help immediately.

Linda was able to spend a few days with her mother at the Mövenpick Balaland Resort, and the girl was even allowed to enter the SPA level reserved exclusively for adults and to take photos there.

According to Linda, she had a great time at the resort, a real lifetime experience in the exotic 'palm and pine tree' environment and attractions.

We wish you a speedy and full recovery!

On behalf of Linda, we would like to thank the management of the Mövenpick Balaland Resort for their help.

For a while, Noel can’t go to kindergarten or the playground, so Noel's wish from the Magic Lamp was his own playground where he can play with his siblings all day.

Noel was also very happy with the swing, but said the blue slide would be his favorite.

We wish you a speedy recovery and lots of fun Noel!

We thank for the support of CHARITIES AID FOUNDATION OF AMERICA, with their help we were able to fulfill Noel's wish!

Thanks to our supporters, we could manage to get a lifetime experience for two more 'Magic Land children'.

Even though Benett and Csilla did not know each other before, they were still connected by many things. They both wanted to swim in the sea, and also see the famous Siam water park and the even more famous Loro Parque fantastic zoo.

From this "equation" it followed that they had to travel to Tenerife, as the two parks are located here and the coast of the island is washed by the Atlantic Ocean. In addition, the beach sand here is dark gray, almost black, because the island is of volcanic origin and the coastal sand is made of volcanic ash, slag, and lava eroded by wind and water.

We met the children and their parents, Róbert and Csilla, at Liszt Ferenc Airport on the day of departure. After a quick acquaintance, we checked in our luggage with the guidance of a Wizz Air employee. None of our fellow travelers had flown before, everything was new to them, from the security check to the tempting shops in the terminal, not to mention the world of the cockpit that is closed to other passengers.

The six-hour flight seemed to be long, but the Wizzair colleagues pampered us the whole way, so the time flew quickly. After landing, the sight of palm trees and cacti swept away the fatigue. We barely booked our rooms at the Palm Beach Club Hotel, Csilla and Benett had to see the sea up close. The next day, of course, the children got to know the 22-degree water of the Atlantic Ocean with the grayish sand, which proved to be very sticky even after swimming...

On Tuesday morning, we got into the rented car and headed to Loro park. This was a full-day program, considering that we had to drive a good 80 kilometers to get there, a significant part through serious serpentines and small villages, because the park is on the other, northern, greener, more humide side of the island.

What can be seen there? Dolphin show, seal show, orca show, parrot show, to mention only the biggest attractions, but there is a real canopy walk with colorful parrots flying freely, tropical jungle, leopard, chimpanzee and gorilla, cactus forest, penguins and puffins in an "aquarium" with arctic darkness and in another corals, with lots and lots of clown fishes…

Of course, we saw all the main attractions and we were lucky because the orcas didn't splash us. The dolphins were fantastically clever and smart, and so were the seals.
It was a gorgeous day, it passed quickly.

/ 14

On Wednesday, splashing again, sunbathing, shopping, relaxing, and gathering strength for Siam Park. We originally planned a trip to the 3,700 m El Teide volcano in the middle of the island, but the sea and the sun proved more tempting.

The water park came on Thursday. It was a few hundred meters from our hotel, so we walked. Unfortunately, the crowd here was very large, you had to wait at every slide, but it was still a special experience with the alarmingly steep and long slides of the park.

On Friday morning, we had a quick look at a fantastic banana plantation, then dropped off the rental car and flew home. On the way there, Benett's dad was amazed at how uneventful the flight was, but on the way back we flew through a storm zone and the air turned out to be quite bumpy, not to mention the lightning bolts flapping outside.

Csilla and Benett both said that this trip was the most beautiful and perhaps one of the most lasting experiences of their lives. They did not even believe that their desire could come true.

And even after 20 years we still believe, we know that there are miracles and they heal!

On behalf of Csilla, we would like to thank our supporters, Wizz Air Hungary Zrt., TV2 Média Csoport Zrt., DM Kft., CHARITIES AID FOUNDATION OF AMERICA, as well as our private sponsors, for being able to fulfill this special wish.

Dear Csodalámpa,

I am very grateful that you fulfilled my wish. I spent wonderful days in Tenerife, enriched with many superb experiences and positive feelings. Although the memories are rather fresh, my thoughts take me back there every day. A huge thank you to you for allowing me to experience this.
I wish you to be able to provide many more experiences in the future! I wish you perseverance, many supporters in your work, and good health!
Best regards,
Csilla Hanna Magyar and family

Veronika had wanted to go to Barcelona for a long time, so she didn't have to think much when we asked what her wish would be. Even the departure was a special experience, she was lifted to the plane in her wheelchair with a special device, the captain greeted her separately, and then the Wizz Air staff surprised her with a small gift package. After landing, she had the opportunity to peek into the cockpit for a short time.

During our time in Barcelona, Roni and I tried to explore as many places as possible. Of course, we saw the Sagrada Familia, walked along the famous La Rambla to the Columbus statue, took a cable car up to the castle, went for a walk in Park Güell, tasted various delicacies at the La Boqueria market, and of course we couldn't miss the beach either.

We left Barcelona full of experiences.

We would like to thank our sponsors, Wizz Air Hungary Zrt., Henkel Magyarország Kft., Provident Pénzügyi Zrt., CHARITIES AID FOUNDATION OF AMERICA as well as our private sponsors, for helping us provide a lifelong experience for Veronika!

Dávid really likes cars, he likes to watch car stories too, but Paw Patrol and Bing the Bunny are also among his favorites. He used to play football with his father, but he also really wanted to ride a bike with his father.

That is why he wanted a therapeutic tricycle from the Magic Lamp, with which he and his father can ride together from now on. In the future only the weather can limit the outdoor programs...

Thank you for the support of CHARITIES AID FOUNDATION OF AMERICA, with their help we were able to fulfill Dávid's wish.

Dorina requested a beach vacation from the Magic Lamp and wanted to get there by plane, as she had never flown before. Even the departure was a special experience, she was the first to board the plane, where she was greeted by the captain, and then the Wizz Air staff surprised her with a small gift package. After landing, she had the opportunity to peek into the cockpit for a short time.

It was an hour's journey from Barcelona to Salou, where we had our accommodation. After arriving, of course, we immediately walked down to the beach, we tried how warm the sea is, what it's like to walk barefoot in the sand.

We spent the next day at the PortAventura amusement park, and in the afternoon the Ferrari Land Park couldn't be left out. Fortunately, the weather was favorable for both swimming and walking, so Dorcsi walked the several kilometers of coastline and was able to explore several beaches.

We went home from Salou full of experiences, but fortunately we still had half a day in Barcelona, where we could admire the huge towers of the famous Sagrada Familia and walk around the city center.

Kincső loves animals, her wish from the Magic Lamp was to spend a few days in the Nyíregyháza Animal Park. According to her mother, the best therapy for Kincső's illness is walking. That's why they chose this Animal Park.

Kincső did not even notice the long walks while watching the animals. Today they participated in the shark feeding, at 13.00 they are preparing for the seal show and from 14.00 they will watch the polar bear feeding. In the lemur forest, despite the heat, the lemurs were quite active.

They have visited several zoos in the country, but they like the Nyíregyházi Animal Park the best. Kincső liked the snow leppard the most, which is why she got a plush leppard from her parents.

We would like to thank the organizers of the Diplomatic Charity Fair, the Budapest Diplomatic Spouses Organization and our private sponsors, for helping us make Kincső's wish come true.

Anna´s wish from Csodalámpa was to discover the amazing attractions of PortAventura. Even the journey was a special experience as she was the first to get on the plane where the captain greeted her, and then the Wizz Air staff surprised her with a small gift. After landing, she had the opportunity to peek into the cockpit for a short time.

Anna really loves water and slides, so she really enjoyed that she could spend a day in one of Europe´s largest aquaparks. PortAventura is also an amusement park with many rollercoasters, exciting games and interesting shows, so she could test her courage on several games, and we could relax by watching a show. Of course we couldn't miss the Ferrari Land park. The beach wasn´t far from the hotel, which she also really liked, she took a dip in the sea several times a day.

We left Salou with great experiences, but fortunately we still had half a day in Barcelona, where we could admire the giant towers of the famous Sagrada Familia as well as take a walk in the city centre.

Unfortunately, Táltos, together with his brother, suffers from an illness that has given them both the right to wish for something from the Magic Lamp Foundation. They knew that they would not ask for an object, since they were collecting experiences. This is how the choice was made for a trip to Legoland in Germany.

Legoland enchanted the boys. Countless attractions awaited them in the thematically built amusement park, and they looked at everything, tried everything out, and were interested in everything. They were cheerful, laughing all the time, marveling at many interesting things. They enjoyed every minute of the program and will probably talk about the wonderful experiences for a long time.

Levente is an excellent student and recently passed an exam in English language. At school, physical education is his favorite subject, which is no wonder, since he plays football seriously and is a member of Viadukt SE.

He told me that he wants to be a professional football player and that he watches the European Football Championships.

Levente really likes to play with his brothers, ride a bike, and play Lego.

He really likes Star Wars Legos, his wish was a Star Wars TIE interceptor Lego from the Magic Lamp.

Dorka loves sports, swimming and horse riding, but she draws and paints most of her time. She attends art school and plans to become a graphic designer.

She asked the Magic Lamp for drawing books, a set of 150 drawing pencils and acrylic paints.

Dorka proudly showed her creations, including the one that has already been exhibited at the Corvin Community Centre in Erzsébetliget.

We would like to thank the organizers of the Diplomatic Charity Fair, the Budapest Diplomatic Spouses Association and our private supporters for helping us make Dorka's wish come true.

Martin asked from the Magic Lamp for a gecko and a terrarium.

Here you are a few lines from her mother about the great joy to the wish coordinator:

"Dear Aunt Klára,

I would like to write a few lines about receiving Martin's gift. Martin and I went to the pet shop because we had never been there before. Martin didn't know what was going to happen. When he realized that his desire his wish would come true, he was very happy. He could choose which gecko he wanted, and he chose the smallest.

Thank goodness geckos live a long time, so he accompanies him until he becomes an adult.
When we got home, we put him down next to his bed and Martin just sat watching "Rambo" in the terrarium.
Thank you so much again!"

May you have lots of joy with your new family member Martin!

We would like to thank Henkel Magyarország Kft. for their support in fulfilling Martin's wish.

Kitti likes to learn, she likes to go to school. However, the little girl with limited mobility, had a problem with her wheelchair being unable to sit at the table in their class. She wanted a desk with an adjustable height and a tilt-sheet, where she could study comfortably.

She looked out for a nice white and pink desk and forwarded her wish to us. The Genie of the Magic Lamp conjure up the coveted table into Kitty's classroom.

Happy learning dear Kitti!

We thank the teachers and students of Budapest British International School for making the little girl's wish come true.
