Las Vegas Vacation

LAS VEGAS VACATION
In June 2010, my sisters and I flew to Las Vegas Nevada where my older brother lives. We stayed there for 2 weeks so me and my twin sister could become better acquainted with our half brother. Las Vegas is a beautiful place to live. While we were there, we visited lots of Casino’s and we even went out to the desert. I plan on going back to Las Vegas this summer to visit again.
The Casino’s were some of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. The carpet in most of the casinos, have a floral type design with lots of different colors. There are hundreds of slots machines and video poker machines everywhere in the casino. The casino that we went to had an enormous arcade with every game that you ever played or desire to play. One of the casinos had virtual rides; they were miniature theaters with about 20 seats of nothing but pure fun. The one we rode on was the virtual roller coaster. We sat down and these huge fans that you can’t see turned on while on the screen, one sees the roller coaster as if one was sitting in the front car of the roller coaster ride. As the move is playing the seats move and jerk around like you are really on a real roller coaster ride. It was a crazy and wild ride I ever been on and I never left my seat! At the end of the roller coaster ride, one runs into a wall, it literally scared the hell out of me and my sister. We went on two other rides like the roller coaster ride. The one that I liked the best was a train ride that goes crazy and we ended up falling off a cliff. That was so much fun, that I almost peed my pants.
Most of the Casino’s had very large and nice elegant restaurants and buffets where one can eat and have plenty of drinks. The Bellagio Casino had the best food on a buffet I ever ate. The buffet incorporates several live-action cooking stations and a level of food quality and presentation that I have never seen or experienced anywhere but in Las Vegas. The guests choose from all

    At first when I had heard of it, I wasn’t too sure on what it was or how it was going to be. When my brother and I had got there it was a beautiful sight. We found out that the strip was all of Las Vegas pretty much and there’s an abundance of beautiful and elusive lights that light up all of it. We took a trip around the whole thing and went to all the little stores and bought some neat souvenirs to take home with us since this was going to be our last day sadly. After we were done we had to head back to the hotel and we heard good news that my dad one in one of his poker tournaments and we greeted him there. We went to bed in the beautiful night of Las Vegas and waited for the morning. I couldn’t believe the fun was already…

    Disney World Vacation

    They have anything from quick meals like hot dogs to dining with characters. There are many dining plans to choose from, and the one I chose is The Disney Dining Plan. It includes 1 quick-service meal per person, per night, 1 table-service meal per person, per night, 1 snack per person, per night, and 1 drink mug per person, refillable at any quick-service restaurant at any Disney Resort hotel. I booked lots of places to sit down and eat and most of them are paid for! When the dining plan is used smart it can save tons of money! It helps save money that could be used for others things, such as, souvenirs. When the dining plan isn’t used, however, it can end up costing a lot of money if it isn’t used wisely. There are tons of quick service restaurants around the four parks like Pizza Planet in Hollywood studios and Casey’s Corner in the Magic Kingdom. Even if a guest isn’t on the dining plan, a nice meal on a Disney vacation is always recommended. For guest that are staying on property, reservations can be made 180 days in advance. Some restaurants are so popular that they fill up before half the day is even over, so it is important to have a plan ready for where the whole family want to eat on the vacation. Also it is important to have some extra reservations made just in case. When reservations are made, a card number is needed to reserve the spot so if no one shows up they can charge the guest $10 per person, but if cancellations are made it is important to do it one day in advance to avoid getting charged. Since I did the dining plan, I planned for my family and I to have nine places to eat at. Even though we are only staying seven nights, and we get seven table service meals paid for. I planned extra in case some get cancelled. Even though seven table services were given to us, we don’t have to use them. Table service credits can be transferred to quick service, but it isn’t the best option. By using the table…

    Virginia Beach Vacation

    . To classify the tourists that consider Virginia Beach a vacation destination, the marketers divided the prospects into four main groups based on their familial status and interests. These groups are singles without children, families, sports enthusiasts, and mature customers. Another way to segment vacationers is by lifestyle or income level. Vacationers could be separated into groups of people who are vacationing on a budget and those who would like a luxury vacation. To target people who are spending their money carefully, Virginia Beach could advertise the free attractions they offer such as outdoor activities and the beach. They could also highlight cheaper hotels, restaurants, and attractions that offer deals. For luxury vacationers Virginia Beach could showcase the finer parts of their area and activities that people can indulge in, such as spas, dinner cruises, and high-end shopping.…

    I was finally entering “India” again, after a month-long sojourn into a world of Himalayan calm, yoga and Tibetan Buddhism (Dharamsala hardly feels like India). Was I ready to free fall back into the masala mania? While the traveler in me was excited to get back on the explorer’s road; the solo gal in me was dreading it. Having found roots for a month in my yoga-family cocoon, I wasn’t thrilled with going back to solo-roughing it. Fortunately when you flow with the universe, it provides you with what you need; thankfully, it granted me friends who wanted to visit the next city on my list– Amritsar.…

    My Vacation at the City

    • 773 Words
    • 4 Pages

    I can still remember the time I went to the city with my family just to have a bit of relaxation since we are over and done with our periodical examinations. Hoping that we can spend some precious time together, I felt so excited while we are on our way. I expected a lot of jokes and laughter, and full of satisfaction when we get there. After a long journey on a muddy and terribly devastated nautical highway, we reach the city, the only city and the capital of our province. We stayed there for a couple of days. On the first day of our vacation, I and my brother almost spent the whole day passing to and through small stores in the market as if we are looking for something to buy but the truth is we are just enjoying ourselves in window shopping. That is the usual thing that we do in the city while my mother is very busy with her facial and foot spa sessions and my father is on the same old motor shops looking for whatever he can add to the overcrowded accessories of our car. When we get tired and hungry we will visit our favourite fast food with the mouth-watering chicken joy and delicious pasta. In the afternoon before the sunset, we went to the seaside. Brendon and I run along the shore and we pick some shells and white stones. We put it in a bag and place it at the back of the car. When we got tired, we just sat on the benches and shared some jokes and funny stories until the sun was gone. We ate at our favourite fast food chain near the park. After the satisfying dinner with the whole family we went to my father’s office to spend the night. According to him this is the safest and most affordable place in the city, I agree simply because I know it’s free. Our second day was more serious, we visit the church in the morning to attend the mass and the next scene is the reunion with our aunties, uncles, and some cousins. We had some bonding moments with them. All of us gathered in the nearest park. My brother and I played different outdoor…
