Going On Vacations In My Life

As he leaves, they notice that the leaves have all turned orange and the air is no longer warm. Every autumn thereafter, the trees at the Bailey farm stay green for a week longer than the trees to the north, and then change overnight. In the frost on the farmhouse windows the Baileys read the words, “See you next fall.”

Hi guys! This past weekend we were graced with a much needed fall break. After a few weeks of constant studying, it was nice to have a four day weekend to sit back and relax. After my two tests on Friday I drove seven hours to meet my dad and my girlfriend's dad in Pittsfield Illinois for a few day hunting trip at a lease that my dad has. It was a long drive, but it was worth it when I arrived to a 16oz prime rib at one of my favorite restaurants, the Red Dome. Unfortunately the corn and soybeans had not yet been cut around our farm so we did not see as many deer as usual, but we still had fun and relaxed for a few days.

When the word “vacation” is mentioned, everyone instantly thinks of a great time. There are no classes, no work, no chores, and most importantly, no worries. However, this isn’t always the case, especially with my family. We decided to set out on an adventure to Virginia Beach this past April. The events that took place were benign but, the trip itself was a little bit of a struggle due to the chain of unpredictable events.

My first trip to Disney World, now that, that was a memorable trip. That trip was one of the most magical and happiest memories of my life. It was back in 2008, I had just turned 6 years old a few months before we left to go there. It was summertime, and the weather was perfect. I remember being so bored on the way there because I am an only child so I didn’t have anyone to entertain me besides myself. My mom’s side of the family went on this trip with us, and at the time I was the only grandkid, and the only kid at all. So once we finally were almost there I remember passing the big ‘Welcome to Disney World” sign and being so excited I peed my pants--my mom was pretty mad, but my dad thought it was kinda funny so I didn’t get in too much trouble.

The trees have shed their gowns and there’s a distinct smell of Marlboro. Tiny tots race around with a hand-me-down football as my brother chases them. Three dogs are locked behind fences in their dog bins eagerly chomping to play. The air is nice a crisp as autumn blanketed the small city. Slipping off my shoes, the grass tickles and goose bumps prickle up my legs.

Imagine October, and the first chilly wild disturbing the autumn air. The trees in Riverwalk are a brilliant display of fall colors, and the air is filled with the spicy scents of fall and the sound of children laughing and playing. Bright orange pumpkins line the porches of Chelan, most of which are meticulously carved. Its no wonder that fall is my favorite season- it’s so beautiful.

My feet shuffled through the hundreds of orange and red leaves covering the ground, but I paid no attention to them. They were normal, common, like the presence of grass in a field. They were just a part of my surroundings. All of my attention was focused upon myself, and getting my dog walked. This was a chore to me, not a leisurely stroll.

As I drove past the Grey Mountains and through the Jane Forrest, I watched as the sun set across the sky creating a angelic orange cast upon the area. The wind passing through my window whipped my hair all over the place. Musket, my German Shepherd had his head hanging out of the window in my passenger seat enjoying the wind.

Upon arriving at the park I'm surrounded by lanky live oak trees, brittle leaves falling one by one, it's a sign of the seasons that chilly days are coming upon us. As I make my way towards the pathway they crackle under my feet. As I look down I'm walking across a array of beautiful autumn colors. The reds, oranges, and browns are so vibrant against

With reasonable temperatures in the daytime and cooling nights, fall in Chicago is the ideal trip. The trees in parks and forests light the city on fire with the fiery reds, bold oranges, and exciting yellows. The thought of being able to stroll leisurely down a sidewalk, taking pictures of the beauty that would surround me sets fire to my creativity. I love fall colors and smells, the autumn season sends every one of my senses into frenzy. From the smells of coffee that people are drinking, to the sounds of laughter, and chittering teeth from people who didn’t dress warmly enough. Seeing lovers hurriedly walking hand in hand, trying to get out of the chilly weather, and the drip of the last night’s rain as it slips from the leaves, you can even taste the air, and how crisp it is. Though by late October and early November, temperatures start to drop, and nights can be fairly brisk, I wouldn’t mind. Personally I like the way the cold turns my nose red, and makes me feel as though I can’t breathe, and with every inhale my insides seem to freeze, just to be warmed by a cup of hot chocolate, or

A family vacation that is important to me was the trip to Washington D.C. I took in 2006. I went on this vacation with my family friend and my two nephews. We went to Washington D.C. because my nephews had a strong interest in learning the United States history along with myself. We decided to go to Washington D.C. because it has a rich history in the United States and was one of the best places to learn about our country and its presidents. I chose to take my nephews with me to Washington because it was a great bonding experience with them and really allowed family bonding time that got them away from home. I chose to go with my family friend because he was also interested in history at the time. During our vacation, we went to many places that made a huge impact in our lives and will always make a huge impact in our lives.

At last it's finally that time of year again, ready for the Johnsons annual trip to our cabin in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Raceing around trying to gather my clothes slamming them into my suitcase, constantly bumping into my other family members. Once we finally get all our luggage into the car and we are off ready for 4 hour driving of trying to contain our excitement to leave the house and enter into a weekend filled with hiking, kayaking, swimming and relaxation.

If you could go anywhere I the world where would it be? I would go to Hawaii because of of the fun things you can do there. You can buy a package for a weekend and you pick three things you want to do. I picked swimming with the sharks, Volcano hike, and jungle tour.

“Wow, what a beautiful sunset. “ everybody said excited looking at the sunset while being swallowed by the ocean. We were all sitting in the cold wet sand together enjoying the view as a whole family. “We made a great choice coming to the beach before the sun set” said my dad. We all agreed with him. After looking at the sunset we all went to go eat dinner at a Mexican restaurant because everybody was craving Mexican food. I ordered a burrito with steak and rice inside. My parents both ordered the same thing as always which was steak fajitas. My cousins also got a burrito but they got pulled pork burritos. And my brother and sister got flautas which are tacos but they come in a hard-shell tortilla. After we finished eating, we all headed to my cousin’s place to have a small welcome party because we didn’t have a welcome party the day the we got to California the day that we came. Later we all slept at their place because everybody was really tired and we didn’t want to go find a hotel to stay in so we stayed in my cousin’s place.

It was the summer of 2069, my and my friend wanted to go on vacation so we decided to go on vacation to Cancun, Mexico, we had been planing this the whole year, but first we had to reserve the hotel and get the airplane tickets so we went to buy the airplane tickets. When we were in the airport buying the tickets I saw a sign that illustrated a plane and said Life is a Journey, Travel it well. The day finally came June 20, 2069 it was a very special day because it was my birthday so we had a little celebration before we had to leave, I turned 24 I had a good time that day but we had to leave that same day, it was 9:00 pm when we arrived to the airport and took of to Cancun, the timed estimated was 12hr, but suddenly at 5:45 when everyone was sleeping there was turbulence in the airplane, it had was running out of fuel, everyone was screaming and scared we had to do an emergency landing but were there was only water no land 20 minutes passed when the fuel had finally run out, all i can remember was that we were going down very fast i thought I was living my final moments but I passed out.
