The Trip to Las Vegas Sometimes you have no choice but to learn the hard way. It was a couple days before we left on our road trip to Las Vegas and we were eating dinner while discussing if we were going to take our dog named Aria with us since we don’t own a SUV. We also didn’t know if she was a good traveler or not since she loves to run around and play. After a long conversation we decided that we would just try it out and see if it works. Our car has five seats which can fit the four of us but we didn’t know about the dog. The night before we were supposed to leave we tried out the plan. We put all of our luggage in the trunk and we all got in the car including the dog on the fifth seat, it didn’t work. Then I had the idea to fold down the fifth seat and then the dog jumped in the trunk and was half in the car half in the trunk. Finally we had the dog situation all figured out. …show more content…
We were going to leave around 12:00 p.m and get there around 10:00 p.m. After all the days of waiting we were locking up the house and getting into the car. I had a bag of stuff to do to keep me busy in the car. We got on the road around 1:00 p.m. and started our 10 hour journey. We were into the drive about two hours and the dog was sleeping and was surprisingly was a great traveler. I knew i still had a long drive left so I tried not to think of that but to think about what a good time I would have. It was 5:00 p.m and we were all getting hungry and decided to go to Taco Bell to get some food to keep us filled up for the rest of the way. We hit the road again for around five or six more hours. Around 8:00 p.m I woke up from a nap I had and I realized that there was only two more hours
For years I’ve been planning a family vacation but had never decided a pleasant and fascinating place to visit. A lot of people relate the adventures in San Antonio for tourists. To mention a few, The Riverwalk, Sea World, Six Flags Fiesta, and The Tower of the Americas are the main attractions that would be perfect for a family trip. I was so enthusiastic and explored more into it. I gave my family the great news of going and exploring this amazing city on our own! San Antonio offers the best of attractions and activities in all Texas! Whether you’re looking for popular entertainment for the whole family or to spend time with your friends, I was so positive I had made a superb decision!
I wonder if I should I start calling Las Vegas, Nevada home now. I’ve traveled back and forth from California to Las Vegas since I was a child. I can remember at the age of thirteen my family and I would take family weekend trips very often. By the age of seventeen I was forced to move to Vegas for 6 months right before my senior year of high school started. Since it was my last year of high school my parents decided to let me go back to California for the last three months and graduate with my friends. Since I wasn’t eighteen yet, I forced to go back to Las Vegas right the day after graduation.
My youth pastor pulled out of our church parking lot at three am in the morning loaded down with a bus full of twenty four teenagers including me. We were off at last head to Colorado Spring Colorado, little did I know, our bus was going to fall apart this very day.
Have you ever been to New Mexico? I can tell you from experience that it’s a very fun place.
Whenever I think about my family's trip to the Grand Canyon over the summer, I always wonder what it would have been like if I had not been too afraid to hike down the rim. When planning our annual vacation, my family decided that we would fly into Denver, Colorado, and slowly make our way to Las Vegas. The one stop along the way that I was looking forwards to the least was the Grand Canyon: I am more afraid of heights than anything else. Although I felt mentally prepared upon our arrival, I quickly decided that the Grand Canyon wasn't for me after a quick glance at the sheer, unprotected 3,000 foot drop.
Have you ever looked off a gigantic cliff? Now imagine traveling 30 miles per hour on a bike with curvy roads with enormous cliffs on your side with no rails. This is exactly what I did with my family when we went to Colorado. From the hotel we drove to a bike tour place to take us to the summit of Pikes Peak. After we arrived at the building we saw pictures of how massive the cliffs were, but what terrified me was the fact they had no side rails. This observation was thrilling as well as terrifying. It was an odd mix of emotions, but I loved the adrenaline rush it gave me. My dad whispered to me, “ This will be absolutely horrifying”.
Vacations aren't always perfect there is always something that goes wrong. At least in my experiences. A perfect vacation to me is when we are all together as a family,which honestly doesn't happen that much. Having a 20 year old brother an 18 year old in post secondary school can make things complicated. Or having a vacation with no,ILLNESS, which can be very,very hard to do!! And I know I’m not the only one who has experienced this on a vacation!
America, Almost every single person on earth has a dream of living in a country full of freedom, liberty, and opportunity. The United States has been providing these benefits ever since it was founded a few hundred years ago. So when I found out that my family would be coming to America, I had already started planning my future of growing up here. Just like any other person, I was feeling enthusiastic and a little nervous of leaving my native country and coming to America to start a better life. I was completely lost in my thoughts of happiness, that I became unaware of all the difficulties that my family and I would face once we step into our new lives. Among these difficulties were the change of language, change of system, and the variety of different cultures.
So I went to Las Vegas with my toddler Spanish and came back a boy! There was not many Spanish speaking people when I went. I was a bit of a creeper listening to random conversations wearing my cheap sunglasses. I would try my best to find the verb, subject, and object they were talking about. Basic words like sed, hambre, mira, mi, tu were common. Sometimes I would recognize the verb but could not figure out the verb ending kind of like trabajarldfkjsdpsb. I was asked a few times if I spoke Spanish and I always replied with “Hablo un poco”. They would then send a flurry of words in my direction as I stood hopeless trying to understand. Occationally I would muster up the courage to order in Spanish or to say anything in Espanol. It was incredibly
I 'm not sure when I 'm going to be in the library next it probably won 't be until Judy 's retirement party. I 'm leaving work that day at 2 so I should be there about 2:30ish.
The trip to Florida over Christmas break was unlike any other. Yes, most people would jump at the opportunity to go to Florida after a winter like we had up to that point. So, let me give you some background on why the trip. Back in July my mother in-law had an epileptic seizure that rendered her in a coma, she has not awoken from and the doctors are pushing to let her go. She has been moved 3 hours from my brother in-laws house to Georgia. Thanks to our lovely health care system, it was the only place available that could take care of her needs. Perfect timing kids are out of school and it is a good time to travel so you would think. I have been out of work
When I was 18 years old my friends and I thought that it would be a good idea to go on a road trip across the country. We lived in Rhode Island and we were going to head up to Florida for the week. I had told my parents that I was going on a service trip with the school because I knew that if my parents knew I would be spending the week in a villa in Florida with just my friends there was no way they would let me go. I had promised my elderly neighbour that I would walk her dogs the day we were supposed to leave so I was planning to drive up by myself a day later. The next morning, I set off to the nineteen-hour drive to Florida. The first couple of hours were fine, the traffic wasn’t bad. Then I hit the ten-hour mark and I was starting to
Title In December 23 2013 I had the opportunity to travel to Orlando Florida with my soccer team to play the Disney world tournament at the ESPN sport center , it was a 10 day trip and there was so much activities to do over there. It was my first time traveling without my family. I was pretty scared, but excited at the same time because it would be a great experience for me. there was a downfall to all this as well, i wouldn’t be able to spend Christmas and the new year with my family i realized that right when the date was announced.
Ever since I was about six years old, I wanted in the worst way to go to Disneyland. I would hope every year that my parents would chose Disneyland as our next family vacation destination. I dreamt of the day I would come back from Disneyland with exciting tales of adventure and a pair of sparkly, ruby red and black Minnie Mouse ears of my very own that would be the envy of every kid in my elementary class. Once I finally went to Disneyland, it was amazing; Disneyland was everything I had expected and more. However, a couple years later when I returned to Disneyland, it was different. The rides, buildings, and everything in the park did not have the same allure. The magic I had experienced as a child was no longer there.
After we got off the airplane, we rented a car and drove to my Uncle Joe?s house. We finally got there and then we all went out to eat dinner. We went to some Italian restraunt and boy was it good. To this day, I have never tasted anything as good as the Veal Picata I had that day. I ate so much that I could hardly move and once I got back to my uncle?s, I just passed out and went to bed. I had a big and exciting day ahead of me. I was going to Universal Studios and I couldn?t wait.
