our flight to board. It was Tuesday, December 20th today, it seemed like any other day, but after today I felt my life would change forever since it is my seventeenth birthday. I nervously followed my family to the gate as I placed my headphones over my head and turned on my favorite song. My family and I had been separated into different seats in the plane, which left me all alone. As I took my seat on the plane, I reminded myself when we land it will already be my birthday. As I was settling into
mentioned, everyone instantly thinks of a great time. There are no classes, no work, no chores, and most importantly, no worries. However, this isn’t always the case, especially with my family. We decided to set out on an adventure to Virginia Beach this past April. The events that took place were benign but, the trip itself was a little bit of a struggle due to the chain of unpredictable events. The vacation started with us deciding to pack the rental car up the night before we left. Once we were
From the earliest days of family travel, four small words have resonated through the car-- are we there yet?! If you listen closely you can almost hear those words wafting from the back seat of a Model T. While cars have changed, family travel and that famous phrase have not. So, how do you stop the 'Are We There Yets' (known as the 'awtys' in our family)? Most cases of the 'awtys' are caused by three factors: the need to move around, boredom, and desire for parental interaction. Here are some tips
Most people have that one vacation with no happy memories. “Remember the summer trip in 2008? The one where all you did was complain?” That’s the one. Money spent on these trips doesn’t care how often you were bored, making it seem as though it was wasted. But if every picture from the trip brings a smile to your face, then the larger cost isn’t as bad.

other different mobility transports. There is only one thing should be changed is making the trip longer, because this trip was short and we could not visit some destinations that were in our schedule. I feel regret about this, but not too much. The trip is really fantastic and its cost is totally reasonable, while food is delicious and not too greasy.

It was like that sometimes but sometimes we were working, we meaning my family, the Gales(missionary friends), and myself. We flew to Sao Paulo, Brazil, Spring break of 5th grade, with a purpose of sharing the gospel. It was a very different experience with cultural differences such as food, gestures, and traditions.
