One of the few vacations my family ever went to, was a seven day cruise. At the age of 12, my mom took my sister, grandparents, and I, on a cruise to the Bahamas. I have never been on a boat before, much less a cruise, so I have never experienced being on the sea. As excited as a 12-year-old could be, I embarked on this journey. After a quick two hour trip on plane, we arrived in Florida. As I stepped outside the airport, the warm, humid air hit me. Unfamiliar with this type of weather, it almost felt exhausting. We gathered on a crowded bus, as it took us to the cruise. I was able to the see the 300-feet tall ship from a mile away. Afterwards, we were taken to a long line, where hundreds of other people were boarding the ship.
The first day I was there, I immediately felt out of place. The staff was extremely nice and they were tending to almost all of my needs. They delivered our luggage to our rooms, clean our room, and etc. Now, my entire life, I spend tending to other people’s needs, since my family ran a restaurant and I helped out a lot. This was unexpected since I was used to taking care of my own stuff and cleaning my own room. The experience was startling. As I started exploring the cruise ship, which was huge. The entirety of the cruise was clean, to the point where it was almost sparkling.

Since, the cruise was so big and heavy, I couldn’t really feel the rocking or rolling of the boat. Now, when I stare at the ocean, I could certainly feel the rolling, but it was inside my head. The cool ocean breeze was constantly blow against me on deck. The cruise ship had all kinds of pools such as, saltwater pools, hot tubs, and water slides. At all times, the pools were maintained at room temperature, so we could go swimming anytime. The sun was always shining at a hot temperature, since we were close to the equator. Inside the ship, it was always cool, as shelter from the hot
When the day came to leave I was woken at the crack of dawn. I was keen to get to Blackpool as swiftly as possible, not only for the football that was ahead of us but also for the famous Pleasure Beach. The coach picked us up at around 8 am and in we crammed into an already full coach. The journey down was full of laughter and friendly joking from the parents. That day, it was particularly hot and inside the coach a number of people were becoming uncomfortable. I was unaffected by the warmth inside the coach, with my earphones in I relaxed and paid more attention to the vast countryside we were passing through. The vivid scenery blew me away, with colossal hills to calm rivers that we met on the journey.
The day of my grandparents had told me they have been wanting to go to the Florida Keys and asked if I would like to join. So of course i wanted to go. Oh and when they told me i could bring a friend along i was jumping with happiness inside. They told me we would be going for a couple weeks and they had all expenses covered. So that day I started talking to Jamie and asking her when she would be back, because at that time she was in Florida visiting family. She had told me she would be back . So i asked her is she would like to join me and take a trip to the Keys with me. I could tell she was so excited when i asked her because she texted me back all in caps and said “CALL ME”. So i called her to let her know all of the details. So she ended up getting back .So when she got back from Florida we went to Walmart and bought a lot of
Many people love attending a cruise, the most exciting event and a beautiful site. Jamaica is the best cruise to attend, going outside the country is a pleasure. Out of all the people I ask, they love going on a cruise, they wanted to go again, and again. They could never understand anyone that doesn’t want to attend a cruise. Is it because their scared?Attending the cruise for my first time, I was nervous thinking what if I fall in the water?or get lost? I can’t understand what the people are speaking.
One of the best family trips that I have been on occurred when I was about 8 years old. My family and I were invited to go on a 4th of July camping trip to Telluride by some family friends that have 5 kids the same ages as our kids. Several other good friends were also invited to join us. We prepared our camping gear, loaded up the car and hooked up our trailer with our Polaris Ranger. The long drive to Telluride was 7 hours and it felt like it took forever because we were so excited to arrive. Even though the drive up their wasn’t fun at all, the reward was great.
The whole boat rocked back and forth as we were cruising in the water. If you thought the view from the dock was better than the view from the boat, you’d practically be stupid. The lights from the city and the bourgeois restaurants penetrated the night sky. While directly above us you could see practically half of the goddam solar system. The ride back was quite underwhelming.
Out of all the trips I have taken, Cancun was definitely the best. It was 2013 and I was in fifth grade. I had known about the trip for weeks and I was so amped up for the plane ride, for the hotel, and especially the ocean. I was in science and the teacher was getting mad because I was distracting all the kids by jittering all over the place. Finally I heard my name called over the intercom and I leaped for joy and ran out of the classroom. From school we drove to the Iowa Airport, got our tickets and loaded onto the plane. Our first plane took us to Chicago, Illinois where we boarded a plane , at the O’Hare International Airport, departing for Cancun,Mexico. The second plane was very lengthy, I tried to sleep but I didn’t actually fall asleep
Nassau, Bahamas has a variety of factors that make it a great vacation spot. First of all, the temperatures are considerably higher there, making it relaxing. The blazing hot sun beats down on the citizens and tourists, which consequently makes it hard to go about the island quickly. There are lots of vast beaches that you can visit to take a break and rest at. The soft white sand covers the whole beach, making it perfect to hang out on.
Ask yourself “if I could take a trip ANYWHERE where would I go” well, I asked myself the same question where would I go? Here is my answer, I would go to the Bahamas because I think that I need to try something new. I think that if I went to the Bahamas then i would try everything because i am very deprived as in i don’t take advantage of the things i could be doing.
Hawaii will always be special in it’s on way, because of its beautiful beaches, amazing weather, and friendly locals. “We’ll be descending into Kauai in the next 10 minutes fasten all seat belts please” said the captain. I looked out of the window of the plane to see beautiful clear blue ocean water that you could essentially see the bottom of the ocean floor. I couldn’t help but think wow if this plane crashes now my one life fear of drowning would come true. Thankfully this didn’t happen, when we finally got off the plane a cool breeze grazed across my nose.
I have been blessed with a family that can go on a lot of vacations. I have been able to go to places like Aruba, Mexico, Disney, and Universal. There have always been two vacations that I have wanted to go on and never gotten the chance. Those two vacations are a trip to the Grand Canyon, and to the Caribbean. Now I have to decide which vacation I would go on if I had to choose.
For ages, the Island of the Bahamas has been known to be on the most breathtaking sites on Earth. With see through turquoise waters and soft powdery sand, the 5,382 square mile island is the perfect place to get away. The average temperature of the crystal blue water ranges to 80 F all year around. To see a celebrity strolling around throughout the island is very common.
As if to conclude our white water rafting adventure, members of my family began recalling which parts of trip they liked the most and which parts they disliked. My family and I decided that we enjoyed the trip and would like to do it again if we got the chance. We all had a lot of fun and got a chance to be together. I learned how fun, dangerous, and scary rafting can be.
When I was seven years old I went on my very first holiday abroad, to
When I was a young child I would love to hear my parents tell me that we were going on a trip. I would be full of excitement, because I knew that we would be going to a place that I had never seen before. My parents, my brother, and I would pack our luggage and venture out in our small gray minivan. Three of my most cherished memories in our minivan are when we went to Disney World, the beach, and the mountains.
My most memorable family vacation took place two years ago. We went to Corsica, a French island situated in the south of France right next to Italy. I remembered waking up early excited to visit this new land. Used to take long flights, I was surprised to arrive to the destination after a one-hour flight. Even though the flight was short for me, it was stressful for my mom, she has never felt secured in a plane, probably due to the fact that she is afraid of height. When finally arrived at the destination, the dry and warm weather was there to welcome us. We all felt relief, and knew that this was the beginning of the summer. Excited, we had a lot of activities planned for the few weeks, me and my father could not wait to dive in the clear
