Have You Ever Been To California

The waves were immense, so we were all told not to go too far out. As my family started to get out of the water, after swimming for awhile. I decided to stay in the water and swim for a little bit longer. I was swimming more remote out to the deep sea. Suddenly I felt my foot start to sink underneath something grainy and soggy. Struggling to pull my foot back my other foot started to go under. I was panicked now, not know what was happening was the most appalling part the whole time. I finally figured out what was happening, I was sinking in some deep sand. As I was yelling for help frantically, I suddenly realized no one could hear me, I was on my own. I pulled and pulled until I felt my foot be released from the sand. I swam as fast as I could, when I finally got back to the shore, I looked at my family and said let's go back

It was a beautiful sunny day and my family and I were driving on the expressway. We were in my Dad’s blue truck with the fifth wheel behind us. We had the windows down in the amazing 80 degree weather. We were around our exit, Myrtle Beach! I was so excited for the trip and couldn’t wait to put my foot in the blue, cold, salt water. After the like 15 hour drive we had just suffered through I was expecting a pretty great trip.

the rain falling , it was an amazing day. Also ,we went to the clear water beach , it was one of the

California is a unique state that is the most populated. Sometimes state and national leaders differ over California's management. Maddees become worse when determining financial responsibility for costly issues.

Another great memory I had was when I went to Myrtle Beach with my mom, grandma, and older brother Vincent. We stayed in a horrible motel it stunk, had bugs, and a small shower but we made the best of it. One day while we was there we were walking on the pier and this disabled man in a wheelchair was fishing and caught a baby shark and he stopped me to show me what he had caught, and he asked me if I did not mind would I throw the shark back in the water and i looked at him like he was crazy and he told me it was okay to pick it the shark up as long and I did not touch near his mouth, so I go

A vacation that i took with my family and friends. We took a vacation to Panama City Beach, FL and that was my first time going to a beach swimming in the ocean but when got there and we ate and cross the road and there was a big pizza delivery truck. We when into the hotel and unload everything we had and we was staying on floor 18 so i was kinda scared of heights. The view from the 18 floor was amazing and the water and i seen some stingrays along the sandy beach and i was scared to swim in the ocean now but i did. When all of us ate lunch i went to the first floor and out the back door and straight into the sand but it was hot so i ran into the cool cold sea water. My cousin and me, we tried swim pretty far out but we was getting so tired of the waves pussing us back and back so we let the water take us back to shore and while we going back i stuck my head under water and i seen a little fish and i tried to grab it but the water was pushing me.

Generally speaking, to the rest of the country, California is nothing more than a large body of land with vegetarians and people who yoga in front of the beach. The truth is, everyone has some sort of dietary

I was about six years old, in Cancun, Mexico for Spring Break in the Month of March. My family and I were staying at a huge resort filled with many fun things to do.We had been waiting for this family trip for months; I was excited to get out of the cold Minnesota weather and into tropical heat. We were in our hotel room getting ready for dinner with my two sisters, my mom and dad. I felt the heat all over my body, like I had been standing directly in front of the sun, So I went to open the hotel window to feel the cool breeze and to see the ocean view. As I walked to open the window my mom said “Morgan be careful, the wind is so strong if you open the hotel door, close the window because the door will slam shut; but I only thought about myself and I responded with a sassy comment, “Okay Mom.”

July 30, the day I was leaving for California. My mom, my brother, my grandma, and I all leaving for the big trip. After a seven hour plane ride, we arrived. My mother was in line to pick up our rental car, the wait which felt like a million years. Slouching on top of all the suitcases and imaging all my teammates laying out in the sun, swimming and having fun in the water made me feel bitter and antsy. We finally got our car and we were on our way to the hotel. It was another hour car ride, eventually we got to the beach. From there on out my day could not have gotten better. The water was as cold as Antarctica and yet it felt so good against my sweaty skin. At about 5 o’clock my coach decided we would hold practice. The field was in a park it looked like something out of the 1920s Great Depression, homeless people everywhere, but we made best with what we have gained. I had not had anything to eat since 6 o’clock that morning, but being the strong fighter I am, I tried to fight the pain of hunger off and finish through practice and get some food afterwards. Turns out my body could only handle so much, I was standing up painfully fielding the balls hit at

I think I am slightly confused by the statement, “the authors of your text make an argument that California should stand as a separate region of the United States and Canada.” Does that mean as its own region in the book or as its own self-governed country within the continent of North America?

There is only one state in this country where you will find warm beaches, snowy mountains, foggy forests, and dry deserts and this is the state of California. California is home to over 38 million people and it is the third largest state in the United States. Most people picture the image of paradise when hearing the name of California; laid-back, tanning beaches, blue oceans, tall mountains, sunshine all year round and the ideal resort destination. Unfortunately, people tend to ignore the other unique features that California has; its geography, environment, economy, and culture. Just like any other states and countries, California too faces many of its own problems and is finding ways to resolve these issues.

I quickly changed into comfortable clothes and woke my brother up (which probably took five minutes) and ate breakfast. I hopped into our rental car, which was presumably small. Three layers of soft, feathered blankets over me, and probably holding onto five different head pillows. “I can’t believe we get to go to South Padre Island for three days!” I yelled to my family. It takes about eight hours to arrive at our hotel, so I definitely got carsick. The good news was that we got to eat fast food! Andrew and I got to sleep a lot while the parents got to drive. We arrived after 7 pm to our hotel. Then, we grabbed our heavy, bulky, luggage and brought them to our room to the 2nd floor. After we unpacked, we were exhausted and all but we still had the stamina to go down to the beach and take a view on the glazing ocean water. It looked very delicate like a clear foil was laid on top of the water. I doused my feet in the cool, numb water. While digging my hands deep in the soft, cushy, sand, I could feel all the grains go

I choose to do California as my state. The reason I choose to do California is because my uncle and aunt live there and it is so much fun there. They have Disneyland, LEGOLAND, Sea World and San Diego Zoo. They have tons of sports teams such as Oakland Raiders, San Francisco 49ers, Los Angeles Chargers, and Los Angeles Rams for football. Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego Padres, Oakland Athletics, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, and san Francisco Giants for baseball. Los Angeles Clippers, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Kings, and Sacramento Kings for basketball.

While driving for five hours in a very hot and claustrophobic car with a family of five complaining about how long it took to get there we finally reached. We all came out of the car with relief knowing it took us five hours to get there. While walking to the hotel where we decided to stay in we saw a bunch of people on the beach, making sand castles, playing football and in the water with their beach inflatables. As my family and I all got settled in the hotel room we decided to head over to the beach. The beach was as beautiful as we imagined with the sun shining and its scorching hot weather. The sand was as was white as snow with shells that were collectable to take home and the water also had waves that sounded like it was roaring

We were in the middle of the desert, basically having no sense of direction whatsoever. Riding down the coastline of a twenty-mile island off the coast of Venezuela. Not knowing where to go was an issue but my brother, Ben, and I were on the ATV zooming through the desert seeing various attractions throughout the trip. Watching animals run everywhere, experiencing the views of little beaches with huge waves it was like a dream come true.
