Personal Narrative: My Trip To Florida

It was about a 15 minute drive to our resort, but it was worth the 15 minutes. Orlando, Florida was so beautiful and it had a lot of beautiful sites too. The most annoying part about driving there was the traffic. Traffic in Orlando was insane and scary. You have no idea how long the stoplight lines were. We had to wait two

Today is Valentine's Day and I have nothing to do. Today I went to my brothers basketball game. They won 38-30 against auburn-y. This was a elimination game. I can't believe those ballers pulled it offing fugu. I mean when I was in 6th grade we didn't even make playoffs. Still single as always but I hope that will change. I like Evelyn Kitchen but I don't know if she likes me. I wimped out to ask her to dance with me and another kid in my advisory likes her too. It's pretty obvious. I just don't know if she likes me. I told my mom and dad and they told me to ask her. The worst thing that can happen is she says no and I get embarrassed to death. The next dance there is in March I'm going to ask her. I should probably explain

It was a bright hot summer day in Florida, and my family had just arrived for our week long vacation, but we were in for the biggest shock of our unified life. We had never thought that this dreadful thing could happen at such a beautiful place.

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 was enjoying the scenery, another thing that I found enjoyable about this trip was the conversation that I had with my family. We went on talking about life in general, all the struggles, and childhood memories that we had. We even talked about years

When i went Destin, Florida. I went to Florida this summer after school was out . We went with my sisters best friend, and my best friend’s family. We drove from Arkansas all the way to Destin, Florida. The day we got there we went straight to the beach! It was the first time I had ever seen the ocean! The following day we decided to go down to the smoothie shack and get a smoothie then swim in the pool. The grown ups went to the beach while we were at the pool.

I awoke on a cool summer morning, at first I wasn't completely there but then, a chill of excitement ran down my spine as I realized my family was going camping today. I ran down stairs past the mountains of camping supplies and clothes to talk to my parents in the kitchen. They said we were leaving soon and that I should start packing all of the supplies into our trusty old Ford Expedition. After about 20 minutes of packing our SUV to the brim with all of the things we would need to survive in the wilderness for a few days, we said goodbye to our three cats and headed for Steelville Missouri.

So my first two weeks at Florida Southern have been exhausting to say the least. One does not really know how flipped their sleep schedule is until they have to wake up early to drive to 8 am classes every other day. The bright side to these days, however, is that I end up making it home by about 11:00 am, where, beforehand, I might have even woken up at this time. I honestly don’t know what I expected from college, but I knew that the college that I planned on attending had a very beautiful campus. Living in the area, you always hear people talking about how world class architecture is located within the city. Florida Southern, along with Publix, and the location between Orlando and Tampa were the reasons everybody talked about

Perdido Key is this little subcity inside of Pensacola Florida. It is so beautiful there. The condo my family and I were staying in was so cute. It had a cute little kitchen, and a balcony. The couch had a hide a bed, which is where Zach slept. I slept on the bottom bunk of the bunk beds, and my parents slept in the bedroom. The entire condo was ceramic tile, because it would be such a pain to vacuum up any tracked in sand. It was decorated very beachy. Lots of blues and yellow sea shell and fish decorations. The very first thing we did was go to the beach. We hadn’t even unpacked or anything. We set our stuff down in our condo and then we were off. Feeling the sand in between my toes was relaxing. It felt squishy and very hot. I was getting my foot scrubbed with every step I took. Ocean water feels soothing. Plus the salt water makes your skin supple and smooth. Also the fact that I was able to say I was literally in the Gulf of Mexico was just unbelievable. The beach smelled like salt. There were seagulls and seashells every place you looked. The next few days were spent on the beach and in restaurants. There were so many different kinds of food and different places I got to try for the very first time. One morning for breakfast we went to a Waffle House and it was just scrumptious. The waffle I ate was as big as my head, plus I added chocolate chips and whipped cream to it. We went to this local dive for lunch during the week and I tried fried alligator for the first time. Eating fried alligator is eating pieces of small fried chicken. At a different restaurant, I had fried cheesecake. The fried crust around it was so sweet with a crunch, with a smooth and creamy cheesecake on the inside. We were also able to snag and snake some Krispy Kreme donuts which was especially sweet and scrumptious. Every piece of food I

After I got through the struggle of packing a bunch of randomness it was time for the tedious car ride. I slept half the way there and looked out the window at all the new roads and landmarks. We drove for seven hours, but then decided to stop and get some rest in buffalo minnesota.

When I was about 10 years old my family and I took a vacation to Florida to see my great aunt Linda. It was a 14 hour drive down to Florida which is a long time in the car. We were going down there for a week. For the first two days we went to Sea World in Orlando, Florida. I was very excited to see my great aunt because I have never met her before. I knew that I was going to have fun on this trip.

It was a cold windy morning in Byron Center Michigan, I wasn't going to school, but one place I was going was Orlando Florida. I couldn't wait to go to Disney World and ride the fast, twisty, scary rides and wait in long lines of course.

One day we meet our cousins from Colombia off of Facebook. My mom was so excited when we found them because they have known each other since they were young. We started talking for a a few months and finally my mom asked them if they wanted to come to the USA and visit us. My mom said she wanted to meet up in Florida, so we started to plan. I was very nervous when she said we were going to Florida, I didn't want to speak Spanish to them because I was afraid they will make fun of me (really not that fluent in Spanish). After we were done planing our vacation a months later we were ready to go to Florida. When we left for Florida we dropped off my dog (Simba) at my friends and said our goodbyes to Gurnee. The road trip took hours to complete and it was treacherous, but worth it.

We finally arrived at might great uncle Scott's house, it was a decent sized cozy little home. We pulled into the carport beside the RV, we got out and stretch our legs for the first time and what felt like forever. We walked in and greeted a familiar face, and after hugs and sat down and caught up. On that night we decided to go to the Alamo, so I laced up my shoes and hop back into the car. After we arrive and finally found a parking spot, we began our trek

During the spring of 2017, I went to Miami and stayed with a friend I met in the first couple weeks of school. Her family are Cuban immigrants. I stayed at her house with her family, who live in Tamiami, a Cuban neighborhood on the outskirts of Miami, where most people spoke little to no English. I was immediately immersed into the Cuban culture the moment I arrived. I had the opportunity to first-hand experience the language, food, music, and lifestyle while I was there. A surprising thing for me while I was in Miami, was that we went to some restaurants where I had to order in Spanish because all the people that worked there spoke only Spanish. Also, we went to Calle Ocho, which is a festival in Little Havana, that celebrates Cuban culture.

The next day we wanted to head out early so we could make it to Colorado and have time to see some sites and visit my aunt and uncle. After we said thanks for letting us stay with my Aunt Alks and Uncle Pinakin's house, we were on our way. I wasn't really looking forward to the drive ahead because I remember how long it was the first time I had to make the trip, and it gets uncomfortable. The only thing I like when we go to Colorado is that we lose an hour. This was probably the most boring trip on our journey because most of the land we traveled was in Nebraska and it was flat and plain. There was nothing really significant about this trip until we got to Colorado. Flat land changed into mountains and country turned into city. That part of it was really interesting because it was like we could see the invisible line separating Colorado and Nebraska. It took us a little while to find my aunt in Golden, Colorado because the directions were a little hard to follow. I guess no one wanted to see anything because almost as soon as we were
