Recommended: My vacation with family

Every year since I was five, my family had traveled to our cabin in the mountains for Thanksgiving vacation. In recent years, my mom decided to make a change in our tradition. We traveled to Texas two years ago to visit my uncle, and this past year my mom decided that we were going to the beach. We packed our suitcases, loaded the car, and headed to Ocean City, Maryland. My family stayed at a campground about twenty minutes from the boardwalk. We had been to this place before, but in the summer. It was a nice spot to vacation, except for the fact that I had a cast on my leg and needed crutches. The most difficult part of the vacation was trying to get into the camper. Since there were stairs, it was difficult for me to get inside. My

  • Personal Narrative: My Cruise To The Bahamas

    485 Words  | 1 Pages

    This past summer, my family and I went on a cruise to the Bahamas. We had just docked at the second port, Nassau, and were preparing to exit the gigantic ship named the Carnival Fantasy. Once we got to the city, I noticed it was bustling with people of all different backgrounds and cultures. The roads were narrow and some even hilly. I remember coming to the conclusion that a lot of people in the Bahamas must have road rage what from the blaring car horns I could hear around every corner. My family and I were walking along the sidewalk, glancing into shops as we passed them. The weather was unbearably hot, but growing up in South Carolina allowed my family and I to push onward with our adventure. The sun burn on my back started to pulsate in pain any time the sunlight hit it, so we decided to stick to the side of the buildings that provided shade.

    According to the AAA more than one-third of Americans will take a family vacation this year. Deciding where to travel on vacation can take weeks of discussion. Traveling to Chicago might seem to be a fun vacation idea, but some may find crowded cities to be a regrettable event. The same could go for somewhere full of natural scenery like Niagara Falls; the sights of the natural wonder may be beautiful, but once you go beyond that, there isn't as much to occupy your time like in Chicago. I have gone to many destinations on vacation from Denver, Colorado, in the West to Washington D.C. in the East.

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
