After dating for two years, my boyfriend Steven and I finally got to go on our first vacation together. The two people that made it all possible are Steven’s Aunt and Uncle, Erin and Bobby. They were generous enough to finance our trip to Las Vegas, although they didn’t know me beforehand. They took us to many adventures and were very accepting of me. Erin and Bobby made an incredible impact on me with their loving spirit and generosity. When I first met Bobby, he seemed like a very tough guy and doesn’t deal with any non-sense. But deep down inside, he’s actually really funny and a true gentleman. His wife Erin was very easy going and funny, a great person to be around. Both of them seem like they live a very comfortable life in Las Vegas, …show more content…
Erin, her friend Julie, and I went to the spa together. The first thing that we did was check in. Once we got called in, all three of us went to separate room for our massages. Afterward, we went out to the pool. As soon as we got out, the sun was beating on me and I felt extremely relaxed. I then realized that I wanted to sun bathe. As I was sun bathing, I felt like I wanted to fall asleep. I was rudely disturbed by Erin and Julie complaining about the children. They were loudly gossiping about children do not belong in the pool at the spa. It made me wonder if Erin dislikes children. When Julie got up to go get a drink, I took the opportunity to ask her if she dislikes children. She was stunned by my question and did not know what to say. After a few seconds she looked at me as if I was being rude and shouldn’t have asked her that. She said that she did like children. But honestly, it didn’t seem like …show more content…
I was expecting there to be many casinos, there was casinos practically at every block. We got to go down the strip, which is practically several stores, restaurants, and casinos jammed packed together. I clearly recall going to the Stratosphere. It was a very tall building. When looking up to it, one had to literally bend their back to look up because of how tall it was. I remember standing in line with my boyfriend, his aunt, his uncle and I to enter the building. While we were waiting, behind us there was a couple with their young child. Their child must have been about five or six years old and he was crying. I realized that he was crying because he didn’t want to go. In all honesty, it’s not a place one takes their child to. I felt bad for him. I initially want to come up to him and try and calm him down. I had to stop myself from doing that, considering I’m a complete stranger. I heard my boyfriend’s uncle snicker to my side and say, “They shouldn’t have brought him here if he’s going to cry like that”. I fought the urge to give him a dirty look. He had a point of not bringing kids to a place if they’re not going to behave, but the tone of voice he used was really cruel. I was really bothered by what he said, since he could have been a bit more compassionate. By the time we made it to the inside of the Stratosphere I pushed the incident aside and enjoyed myself
My trip to the Grand Canyon was the best experience I ever had so far in my life. My grandparents from Korea came along with us. Even though I saw them last year it was still an enjoyable moment that I had. Grand Canyon is located in Arizona so what our family did was fly to Las Vegas early in the morning and arrive in Nevada around 9 o’clock am. Driving to Grand Canyon was also five hours with heavy traffic. Driving and stopping every hour was hard to do but at the end it was all worth it. It was good that I had couple electronic devices and my family to keep me in company.
I went to Orlando, Florida. First we got lunch at the airport then we got ready for our plane to leave. Then we got on the plane after half an hour of sitting and waiting. Finally after a long plane ride we were in Florida. After we got our bag we went across the street to get our rental car.
To begin, the drive to Las Vegas was long - lasting, but very fun. For example, I had my sister, cousin, uncle, and my parents, so we listened to music and played games. This shows that we can have a good time in just a car with one another. This also shows that we can bond easier because we have the same sense of imagination. In addition, my sister, cousin, and I were taking videos of each other while everyone was sleeping. This displays that we can entertain each other when no one else wants to talk. This also displays that we get along even when we have to sit in a tight space for a long period of time. In conclusion, the drive was very interesting and entertaining, although it was very long.
I will never forget my trip to Six Flags, St. Louis. This all started when I was fourteen years of age. My step dad, who lived in St. Louis, decided to invite me to visit for the summer. I was so excited to go! When the day came he pulled up at my house he asked me if I had all my stuff ready I said, “Yes sir! Let’s go!” Then my step dad’s family and I piled into the two cars and hit the road. The whole ride there I thought about all the things I wanted to do at Hurricane Harbor and Six Flags.
My family and I traveled to Six Flags this summer for a family vacation. Six Flags is located outside of Atlanta,Georgia. While traveling to Six Flags we stopped at the Birmingham Zoo. when going down the Goliath,I panicked and started to scream.We rode another roller coaster and my fear became more magnified. We also rode the bumper cars and my brother ran into me. We didn't want to spend our summer patrolling the neighborhood on our scooters. We also went because we didn't work interfering with our family time. We wanted to go somewhere fun and exciting. While dinning at our vacation this summer we saw a chef chopping vegtables. The weekend we went to Six Flags qualified as a vacation.On our trip to Six Flags my brother interfered with
I don’t ever want to forget the day we went to Six Flags. In the morning I woke up my parents at 9:00 in the morning so we can get there early and get tickets. Next, I ask my friend if he can come and he said “Sure I’ll come”. So, when my friend was ready to go we left to Six Flags Great Adventure. In addition, when we got there we started off with the games. My friend and I were versing each other on different games. We also went into the haunted house. When we got bored we went on the roller coaster. We went on Superman, Green Lantern, and the Joker, and the most coolest part the Ferris Wheel! After that, we took a break and got back to the rides. Later, when we were tired out, we went home.
I locked the door and went back to my breakfast. The kids were coming for their visit, and Kerri was to drop them off at one p.m. She and her new boyfriend, (Tim, or was it Tom, who was it this week?), were going to Vegas for the weekend and we both thought it was best to not take them. I would prefer my daughters not see the life that Las Vegas promoted. Kerri had other ideas, her liberal thinking always got the best of her, but she respected my feelings about our kids, and I did not want them exposed to adult behaviors at their age. That city was a dump for the basest of human behavior; Kerry and Tim (or Tom) can do what they pleased, but I put my foot down for my kids. At least she respected my thoughts on my
Leaving Las Vegas, directed by Mike Figgis and based on the autobiographical novel by John O'Brien, is an emotional story about an alcoholic who rejects life and wants to drink himself to death in Las Vegas, and an unselfish prostitute who loves him the way he is. Ben, played by Nicholas Cage, was a former movie producer in Los Angeles and has obviously crumbled in the glamour world of Hollywood which is shown in the opening scene. Here Ben is already an alcoholic when he disturbs former colleagues that are embarrassed of his appearance at the restaurant. Ben is unstable and a mess when one of the men give him money and tell him not to contact him again. Ben then gets fired and ultimately decides to drink himself to death in Las Vegas, a
On 3-12-2017 at 08:29 hours I was dispatched to US 166 and Oliver reference a suspicious vehicle occupied by a male and a female parked on the side of the road. Upon arrival I contacted the occupants of the vehicle who identified themselves by ther KS DL's. The male was Joshua W Shwab and the female was Ashley J Stewart. Ashley reported that her and Joshua have been dating for about 9 months and decided to go to one of the Oklahoma casinos last night. They left around midnight and were heading back to Wichita when they began arguing over going to another casino. Ashley wanted to go to a different one, but Joshua did not. When they got to US 166 and Oliver, Ashley told Joshua to pull over so she could use the bathroom. Once they pulled
Ever since I found out my softball team could make it to California for Nationals I knew this would be our goal for the summer. Now here is where the challenging part came in, we only had three chances to make it to California. We made it, we were lucky enough to make our goal in the third chance.
My story began on September 12, 2000, in Phoenix, Arizona. I was born to my mother, a faithful member of the gospel, and my father, an alcoholic. These two traits did not function well together and they ended up getting a divorce in 2001. This would start a new chapter that took my mother, three sisters and I to Elko, Nevada. Nearby was the reservation of my Native American (NA) tribe, the Western Shoshone. My NA heritage came from my father, so when he left my life, he took the culture with him. My grandmother did all she could to include me in the tribe by making me traditional NA items such as moccasins and shawls.
My trip to Vegas was a great one. I’d like to especially thank The Kess Group (TKG) for everything that they did to ensure that I had a memorable experience. I can confidently say that I was in the best clubs in Vegas. Being in the Las Vegas clubs made this trip a complete joy. Of course, it was expensive to plan my Las Vegas night clubs trip. However, that’s typical of planning anything in Sin City, particularly if you want to enjoy the prestigue of being at the best nightclubs Las Vegas boasts of on the strip.
My mom has always had a love for Harry Potter. She read all the books and listened to the audio books in her car. She wanted to see Hogwarts for her self. So where else to go than Universal Studios, Orlando Florida? My parents bought tickets for the trip there, back, and the park. My family left Negaunee early that morning and made our way to the Chicago Airport. We arrived in Orlando around 1:00 am. We checked into our hotel and all fell asleep right away. In the morning, we packed up our little backpack with what we needed and walked across the street to the park. When we were on the sidewalk, it was insane how many little geckos there were. I also found a stray cat a few days into the trip. When we got to the entrance, the man checked our
This road trip to Dallas, Texas has been sensational, and after five days of visiting family and twenty-two hours in the car, the adventures are still not over. The day after we arrived in Dallas, August 1, was my brother’s 9th birthday, so my family and I purchased and savored blue ice cream cake with both chocolate and vanilla ice cream in the middle, went to IHOP, and after rummaging through the menu, ordered breakfast foods, inclusive of chocolate chip pancakes, delectable golden hash browns sprinkled with salt, crispy bacon, and perfectly brewed hot chocolate with just a squirt of whipped cream on top. Because Texas is sultry in August, the temperature reached over 100 degrees every day, so my family had to find fun ways to cool down
When me and my grandma got our tickets to go to California it was so exciting!!! We packed our bags to days early. It was hard to decide as we were packing so i had my grandma pack my bags for me that made it really easy. It was funny what we packed my packed me close to last a whole month, it was crazy. So we were done packing so we went to bed early because the next day we left. We were so excited it was hard for me to fall asleep but somehow, i managed to go to sleep. I slept on the way there it was a long drive so packing was pretty fun.
