Have you ever had that feeling that you want to go on a family vacation but you don’t know where to go? The best option of a family vacation is going on a cruise. I know that it was my favorite vacation of all time. In the summer of 2016, I went on the Royal Caribbean, Liberty of the Seas cruise ship. And I know that it was the most fun I had in my entire life. Seven days on a cruise ship, with water slides and activities for everyone. We got on the ship from, Galveston, Texas and our ship was not the only one that was docked, the Carnival cruises were there too- but the Royal Caribbean ships looked a lot bigger. One of the major things that was amusing me about the cruise, was that the ship is moving and I can be having the most fun I can possibly having- no more backseat fights! The one ship I went on was a 15-deck ship. My room was on the 7 floors, and it was in the center of all the fun. On the ship they have a enormous number of water slides. The ship also has a water park with many pools and a hot tub, they had a free ice cream machine over there too, to give you ice cream when you needed it. The whole park area is called the splashaway bay area zone, and personally this was my favorite place on the cruise. On the ship, there was a ride called “FlowRider” and it is nothing but surfing on water, until you fall down. Another one of my favorite rides, was called “Tidal Wave” and I loved this ride, you are sitting on a tube, and then you go up and down a water slide,
Beth was an interesting woman to say the least. She was very talkative and had an eccentric personality. She might have been a smidge under the influence on this very normal afternoon but she was still a nice and fun person to talk to. Ashley and Kevin and I got to know her and all about her family all too well sitting at the bar at TGI Friday’s.
My summer of 2017 consisted of visiting places all over the United States such as New York City, Washington D.C., and Florida. Not only did traveling this summer teach me new things, but it also made me go outside my comfort zone and experience new things. This was single-handedly the best summer of my life and wish I could relive it over again.
“The best things in life are the people we love the places we’ve been…. And the memories we’ve made along the way.” by Unknown. 2017 started off terrible but then soon got better from a little help from God. My family found out we won a trip to Hawaii. My parents were deciding whether or not they should take us kids with, my brothers Chris was 18, Matt was 11, Nic was 8, and I was 15. Then my parents talked and the decided that it would be our last family vacation with just our family saying chris went to college the next year and probably will find a girlfriend. Hawaii I know made me look at life a different was saying everything that just happened to me.
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 best trip I have ever been on would have to be our first family trip to Florida. I have been on many trips however it was the very first still a lot of my family has seen the ocean,or even left Tennessee. A eight day trip in a beautiful beach house surrounded by family gave us great memories and we go once a year ever since. My dream job would be doing anything that involves helping people I really enjoy having people leave happy. Maybe working in my own restaurant because I love too cook and food usually leave people smiling. There would be good food and Good music as well as kid friendly so, the entire family could enjoy themselves. I have a dog she is a Pomeranian name Skylar. She's only nine months old all black with curly hair. My
As a child, I believed that I was invincible. Nothing stood in my way and if it did, I just tore the obstacle down from the source. Whether it was trees to climb, pools to jump in, or wild hair getting in my way; I always overcame them. There was point in my childhood though, I realized not everything was under my control and power. I didn’t receive everything I desired like I was believing. My childhood untainted mind was rocked with a new discovery and mindset. Of all places for this change to happen, it was on a family vacation to Disney World.
It is a torrential, snowy day in late December in Point Pleasant, New Jersey. Outside lies men in coats as thick as armor trying to plow away the snow as it falls. Their hands are numb and their efforts are proved useless in such long waves of endless snow. You are trying to navigate through the storm along the streets in a cold, metal car. Snowflakes pile on the windshield and block your view of the road. This does not seem like a lot of thrilling excitement! I know our family would better benefit from being elsewhere rather than being huddled up by a fire inside the house. I want our family to take a trip to Florida during winter break because our family could escape from cold weather, it would be another amazing place to bond as a family, and it would be an inexpensive trip if planned well.
From the quality of their food to their shows, clubs, and amenities, there is so much that Celebrity has to offer. The selling features of Celebrity Cruises are their staff, food, and destinations. The Celebrity staff is very entertaining and engaging. Just walking the ship, the staff will have friendly conversations with you and make sure needs are met. There is a variety of food available around the clock. You can get anything from a hamburger to escargot and select food is made to order. Celebrity offers cruises all year round. Destinations range anywhere from: Bermuda to the Eastern Caribbean to Alaska and Europe. These are just a few of the gorgeous destinations that Celebrity Cruises travel to. The entertainment on Celebrity Cruises is spectacular! My favorite performances while being on board were the comedy shows, ice sculpture shows, as well as their own rendition of Broadway performances. From the very first step on the cruise until your departure, there are an endless amount of activities. Whether you enjoy hanging out at the pool, participating in games, or dancing, there is always something to do. I have traveled to the Eastern Caribbean, Bermuda, and the Western Caribbean on Celebrity Cruises with my family since I was 12 years old. I have also traveled Norwegian in Hawaii as well as to Bermuda on Royal Caribbean, and overall I would rate Celebrity the best! Celebrity offers a list of excursions for each destination. My favorite excursion was swimming with the sting rays in the Cayman Islands. Another great excursion offered was climbing the Dunn's River Falls in Jamaica. For the price of this cruise line, it offers the most value for your
Every year my family and I would decide on the country to visit for our Fourth of July family vacation. It has been a tradition of ours for a while now. Our goal is to visit all of the countries in the world and learn about the many different cultures for ourselves. We are all humans at the end of the day and we are all similar in more ways than we realize. The reason is that we just don’t want to remain complacent in a comfortable bubble, due to the fear of the unknown or false information. Therefore, our next destination would be to Africa, particularly South Africa. After reading various blogs from the study abroad students at Temple University, two of the blog posts had captured my interests because both of their locations were in Africa.
My most memorable vacation was on a family cruise to the Bahamas. We boarded a large cruise ship, was given our cabin number and we were set for the week. On board there were so many different activities like a Kid’s Club, all you can eat food, a pool, mini golf, stores, casinos, etc. The activities like the Kid’s Club kept me beyond occupied all week. We did stuff like scavenger hunts around the ship, mini golf tournaments and at the end of the week we had a party in the ship's party room with a DJ, food, and all of our friends.
Where in the world would you most likely want to visit?! I chose the Bahamas because it would seem like a very nice and beautiful vacation spot to go to. The capital of the bahamas is Nassau and the place I would love to stay at is in the Grand bahamas. Someday, I will take my mom and brother on a vacation to a city they have never been to before they would be so happy. I would be very excited! To go there because it seems like stuff I would want to do before I die. Even though, there is way more places I would like to visit out of state that is my main one that I chose. I've seen pictures on the internet of the bahamas and it looks so perfect and so pretty! That is one of my goals. I love the way the water looks and it just looks like the
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.
An exciting trip with family is something that most families remember vividly. In this case, it was not the most exciting trip we have taken, but definitely one to remember. Being in the hospital had some interesting experiences I saw and felt.
As I was riding in the car on the way back to the airport, I couldn’t believe THAT was how my summer vacation ended. Just one week before that my family and my cousin’s family were on our way to Minneapolis, because that was where we were flying out of. The rest of my family was all driving. We were going on our first vacation as a big family. There was about 28 of us going to Orange Beach, Alabama. The summer before that my mom and aunts were trying to find a place for all of us to go together. They finally decided on a beach house in Alabama.
There are certain memories that we have that we can remember like they happened yesterday. Many of those memories that have special meaning to me were of family vacations when I was young growing up with my brothers and sisters. Family memories are important to many of us because they take us back to a time or place that was special. One particular family vacation I remember vividly, and it’s a story I have shared with my kids on many occasions. Over the 40 or more years since that memorable vacation, I still smile and think how lucky I was growing up with a mother and father that did everything to give their kids an unforgettable memory.
