My Holiday to Gran Canaria
I went with my mum and dad. I took one of my friends with me called
Pat/ and my brother and three of his friends, Mark, Scott, and John
also went with us.
We travelled by aeroplane and the flight seemed really long. Everybody
was asleep most of the way there but I was awake the whole way either
watching TV, listening to music, or thinking about the holiday. I was
so exited.
We finally arrived at the airport in sunny Gran Canaria and waited for
our luggage to come through. We were told by a holiday rep to get on a
bus that would take us to the Barbados apartments where we were
staying, but when we walked out the doors there were about twenty
buses sitting there. We tried asking a bus driver what bus to get on
but he didn't speak English. We went back into the airport where there
were a few holiday reps and they showed us where to go.
The bus journey lasted for about half an hour and then we arrived at
the apartments. We unloaded our luggage and then headed towards the
reception which was underground. We signed in and then myself, my mum,
dad, and Pat took the lift up to the third floor while my brother and
his friends took another lift up to the second floor on the other side
of the apartments.
There were two sides to the apartments. Both sides had a swimming pool
and the pool on our side had a bar and two pool tables.
The apartments were really nice inside and had two big bedrooms with a
big bathroom and a fair sized living room with a joined on kitchen.
The apartments also had a TV and a balcony that overhangs the pool.
When we had settled in we all went for a meal at a fancy restaurant
just across from the apartments. Then at night we went out to explore
and have something to eat and drink.
On the second day of our holiday we went down to the swimming pool and

I was dropped off at my good friend Siri’s house, where I met the rest of the people going on the trip. We had a group of eight, which included three dads (each with one of their kids), plus me and another guy named Lindsay. He was oldest person in the group, and had lots of experience backpacking. Lindsay and I would be paired-up in one of the canoes
When we got there I was pleased to be out of the car. We went to my grandma and grandpa’s house because we didn't have a house yet. My mom

I stood in the town square of the small village. Like any other normal day, people were going about their day-to-day business. Old men sat on a wooden bench beneath a large tree and predicted this year’s crop. Women shared town gossip as they shopped for groceries, and children sucked on lollipops while they played along the cobblestone streets. However, unlike any other day, the whole crowd had stopped in unison and darted their eyes in my direction, their full attention on me. I heard hushed whispers as I passed by the crowd, “Americano!” “Oh mio Dio, guarda com’è alto!” I lowered my head as I thought to myself, “What the hell am I doing here? I’m in a country where I don’t know the language or the culture, and I have another nine and a half months until I go home!” I didn’t know it then, but those nine and a half months that lay in front of me would be the experience that would challenge my views and goals and help shape the person I am today.

My favorite summer vacation was when my Father took me to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida. It was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. What made it even more memorable was the fact that it was my very first time on an airplane. I cannot recall another time in my life when I experienced so much joy. That trip to Universal Studios was the first time my Father and I actually did something together, just the two of us and was something brought me close to my Father. In this essay I will tell you about my plane ride over there, what I did right when I got there, and about my time at Universal Studios.
Throughout life, many of us have had an opportunity to visit different places, so memorable that we cannot avoid sharing the experience with our friends and family members. During holidays, family members or groups of people would always want to go on vacations but unfortunately, they simply have no idea on how to plan for their vacations. This is a plan for a vocational trip of 25 people to Spain. It includes places to visit and accommodation during the vacation.
Then my dad rang my sister and organised for us to be picked up at the
The next morning me and a friend that I had met locally. Decided to go
Throughout someone’s life they will go to many places with their family, friends, another relatives. I have been on a few vacations that have made a lasting impact on my life. But one of the most memorable vacations I have experienced was with my cousins. I went to goa beach. Most of you probably don’t know about that beach but it is a very famous one in south India. I enjoyed myself to the fullest. The beach environment was enlightening. I would not have wanted to take this trip with anyone other than my cousins. We had a great time on the ocean sands and swimming in the ocean everyday made this vacation unforgettable.
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
