Key and Unforgettable Vacation

ENGL 1301
February 5, 2013 An Unforgettable Vacation
2) Recall a place you were once fond of – a vacation retreat. Summer 2012, in the mid weeks of August; I can recall fond memories of the hot sand between my toes. The sun beaming of my aviator shades, crisp touch of my tan skin lying on a jumbo beach chair, in the beautiful Island of Destin Florida. Here in this sanctuary, was like living in a dream, so different compared to anywhere I had ever been. Different in a special way, Destin is nothing but miles and miles of clear Blue Ocean with mounds of white powdered sand, Parcells in the sky with big smiles, dangling feet above your head. Every person you see is full of excitement glowing off their faces, you can just hear the joy in their giggles, nothing but joy feels the air in this amazing place. Being in Destin you can just let your hair down and relax, I feel like I am a completely different person here because there are no worries, no expectations, just peace and tranquility. Destin is important to me because, when I am feeling down or I am stressed over work or school, sometimes I will just take a moment and go back and fond on those amazing memories I had there and escape back to the beautiful scenery, almost so close like I can feel the air brushing against me and the smell of the sea salt in the air. The bond I got to feel with my family and boyfriend it was unforgettable to have everyone there, to all be together and so happy, really an unforgettable vacation. One of my fondest moments of this vacation, was going snorkeling with my entire family and finding tons of unique shells and seeing all the amazing sea life right in front of you. The most memorable moment was finding real live sandollars that was incredible, to be holding them in the palm of your hand feeling their gills brushing it with every breath, so amazingly unforgettable. This vacation really showed me to take in the amazing things you get to

    The best trip I have ever went on was when my family and I went to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. My aunt was getting married and my mom’s side of the family was invited to come. We got to go on this vacation last February. We left very early one morning and we went to the airport. It was very cold and the air was very dry. We got to the airport in Sioux Falls and we went through security and waited to get on the plane. Once we finally got on the plane I was very excited to get there. We had a connection in Minneapolis and we had a direct flight from Minneapolis all the way to Punta Cana. Once we finally got to Punta Cana, we were getting off the plane and I could feel the humid, warm air. We had to wait in a very long line to go through customs. After that, we got on a taxi that took us to our resort. The roads in the Dominican Republic are not much different from the roads in the U.S. They still had stop lights, billboards, and the same traffic rules. One big difference we saw on the way to the…

    One of the most memorable moments I have experienced was four years ago, when I traveled from Matamoros, Tamaulipas to San Antonio, Texas. I had the opportunity of visiting San Antonio for the first time, and more importantly, of spending time with my family who I had not seen in years prior to the trip. Spending time with my family is of great value and importance to me, so I became utterly excited to see them as soon as I had the chance.…

    Once you’re able to get settled in your room, standing on the balcony is ideal while you wait for everybody else to get ready. The view from here is always what my brain pictures when I think of Destin. Depending on the time of day, you’d be able to little dots on the beach that are people milling around on the flour-white sands of the shoreline. Even though I was fourteen stories in the above the ground; there was water disappearing into the horizon line as far as my eye could see. Up here on the balcony, you are unable to hear much due to the cawing of seagulls passing by religiously. The stargazing view from this balcony at night is clear and vivid.…

    There once was a time that I went to cabo San Lucas Mexico with my family. The reason that this trip was so special too was because I got to spend a whole week with my grandparents, aunts and uncles and most importantly my parents. When we first got we went to are rooms and put are thing down then went right down to the pool. I can still remember the way the pool look and felt because I got cut on one of the tiles in the pool. One there reasons I liked the pool so much is you could just sit there and watch the sun set. Then the next day I went fishing on the beach that was so cool casting out a fishing line and sitting there waiting with family there beaches are so beautiful and nice like the ones you see in TV commercials. I haven’t even got to the best part they have a little cruise called sunset cruise. You rode on a pirate ship and watch people fight and watch the sun go down. I was a lot like the movie call peter pan. This little cruise was so special because in a hurry and I got locked out of my room I forgot to wear shoes so I was without shoes that whole night. There is one restraints that you have to go to when you are there I mean they have unreal food. They have huge tacos filled with anything you want with beans, rice and a side salad. I can taste it now. I also remember the time I went with my grandparents to the beach after the sun went down with one of my uncles. You have experienced nothing until that happened I mean the sand nice and cold between your toes swimming in the ocean you feel so free and wild. That is why cabo San Lucas Mexico is so special to me. I have a lot of good memories there with my…

    That is right, the home that we dreaded but now missed. Throughout the rest of my childhood, I would spend my school years in northern Wisconsin and my summers in the Southside of Chicago. As I got older, I learned how lucky I was to have been able to experience both worlds. My cousins in the city were jealous we got to ride horses, milk cows, and ski in the winter. My friends in the country thought I was so lucky that I got to visit the Sears Tower every summer and knew of all the cool, trendy songs before the roller rink played them.…

    There goes one, two and three boats passing my sight as I sit and watch the waves hit the rocks. The sound of the water tumbling over the rocks sends a relaxing wave over my body, as if, I were the wave crashing against the rock. Living on Smith Lake provides me with peace within myself. Alone on the rocks, I stare off into the clear still water and speak to myself. It is like taking a nice bubble bath, there is the alone time and meditation time.…

    Like it was yesterday I remember my first vacation on a cruise. My Dad and I went on a three- day long cruise to The Bahamas. I had never been on a cruise, so it was a new experience for me. We needed to be in Tampa for our departure, so we drove the two hours from Orlando, Florida to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. My Dad and I used this time to talk, make plans for the trip and think about our upcoming adventures on the cruise.…
