With school and two sports, I rarely have quality time with my family. But all that changes when summer break rolls around, and my family goes on adventurous trips. On every single trip my family and I have had a great bonding experience and it gets better each year. Every summer has been exciting and has led me to travel to all 50 states. All of these experiences have helped me to appreciate and bond with my family. While I was in Hawaii, my parent made a decision to swim out to this huge rock and
My Ethiopian experiences summer of 2015 This summer I went to one of the most exotic places in Africa. In the summer I went back home to Ethiopia. I call it “back home” because this is where I am from and where my parents were born and raised. Here is my trip back home. During this trip, I was able to do lots of cool and exciting things. We went to different cities, museums, the zoo and many different places. While in the city I was able to go to a place where they make traditional clothes, accessories
interesting. The majority of my summer was spent working unfortunately. In July I went to Florida with my family for a week. During summer vacation I also hung out with Jared, my boyfriend, and my other friends whenever I could. For the most part my summer was very boring, but I made the best of it because it was the summer before senior year. Before last school year ended got a job at the McDonald’s in West Point, so I could have my own money and not have to take my parents' all the time. Another
dreaded heat wave. Well, my family and I decided to change the usual by visiting New York City; there was even an advertisement in the New York Times newspaper stating that there was a free vacation if you signed up on this website, which was called TheNewYorkExperience.com. My parents signed the rest of the family up, even if it was suspicious. Either way, it was finally time for the vacation that we always wanted; only five days were left until the trip would begin. My mother and father disputed
us is to take a trip to visit new places. This past summer, I flew from my home in Florida to take a road trip with my aunt from Roanoke, Virginia. We went to Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was an amazing experience to be able to visit the place where my family originated. Our trip started in Roanoke where my aunt and I made our way to Canada driving through the night. Unfortunately, since it was dark, I was unable to see anything. I did, however, get to have time to talk with my aunt and get to

My family and I left for Panama city, Florida in June of 2011. The trip was so fun; we sang songs and laughed hysterically during the whole ride there. When we arrived we were all ready for the beach warm sand and it’s cool waves. We stayed at the beach until about nine and everyone prepared for dinner. Once everyone settled in we sat and ate dinner, as always the dinner was great with my family. Everyone talked about any and everything; we even cracked jokes on each other. The next
Name: Professor: Class: Date: Spending Summer as a Child in Arkansas The city of Eldorado is located in Union County, Arkansas, on the southern part of the state (Federal Writers Project, 73). My hometown has changed dramatically over the years and is now all commercial properties, shopping centers, industrial complexes, and residential estates. However, a peek back during the years gone paints a slightly different picture. The city was still all natural then, with pine forests all over and farmlands
This year’s family vacation was one for the books. With my aunt living in Tennessee, we do not get together as often as we would like so my family decided to go to Nashville, Tennessee. When we started our trip, it was 6 a.m. and it was nothing short of fun and laughter along the way. Never having been to Tennessee before, I figured I’d enjoy the eight-hour ride of sight-seeing and laughter with my family. When we were a few miles into the trip, the mountains of Georgia were breathtaking. While I
In 2008, I learned some exciting news that I was going to go on a cruise. A cruise is a new experience for me and I was ready to go on it. We were going to St. Martin in the Bahamas, we would leave Kansas City and get on a boat at Cape Canaveral which was by Kennedy space center. Me, my grandparents, parents, aunt, uncle and my great grandparents were all going on the trip. This trip ended up being the funnest trip in my life. First, we had to go to the airport which was Kci. We had all of our luggage
diligently at my part time job. After saving every last penny that I earned, I now have a total of $3,000. What better way to spend my summer earnings than to treat myself to an extravagant vacation? To make my extremely difficult decision of where to go easier, I have narrowed down my choice to only two destinations: Brussels, Belgium, and Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Although I have simplified my selection to only two vacations, the decision is still quite difficult; after comparing my transportation
its own unique experiences that make them sought after vacation spots. Massachusetts has that same feeling for me. I am able to surround myself with my with family and friends in one of the most beautiful parts of the world. If I had a ticket in my hand, I would cash it in for one road trip to Massachusetts with my family. Road tripping with my family is always something I have wanted to do. Most of the time we travel by plane, but cruzing up the US in a car lets us drive all around and see new sights
• Today was a pretty slow day. I did not get the chance to explore much nor did I able to attend any briefings. The highlight of my day was my lunch hour. A couple of interns and I were conversing about the trip to Lisa’s. Together, we shared our favorite and most exciting moments from last Saturday agreeing that sailing was the peak of the trip. Tuesday: • I attended a Homeland Security Hearing in regards to the Appropriation Bill. There, we were informed about the enormous amounts of money
coffee plant was ever found located on the horn of Africa. I do not remember much about the trip, but I still remember enough to make this essay. Ethiopia is the birthplace of my sweet mom and the place I first saw my grandparents. The main reason I went was to see my extraordinary family that was in Ethiopia. During the trip I had a great time, especially when I went to the beach for the first time (with my family). The airplane ride to Ethiopia was fun, because it had many things to do on the airplane
