Personal Narrative: My Drive To North Topsail Beach
At 5:30 A.M. my parents would be up and we would begin our drive to North Topsail beach in North Carolina. I stayed awake all night hoping to sleep in the car during the drive. My cousin Branden was sleeping on the couch while I waited for 5:30 A.M. to arrive. Once 5:30 A.M. rolled around, my dad woke up and said, “ugh it's really early!” My mom, who was right beside him said, “yes, yes it is!” My dad turned around and said, “let's get Dalton up!” Dalton took some time to get up like usual, but finally after we packed up all of our bags, we met up with my uncle Jon and started our two day drive.
The full day of driving really drained the life out of me. We got to the hotel in Mt. Airy, North Carolina, at around 6:30 pm. I got out of …show more content…
After my dad got the key and we settled into our room, we jumped into the pool until it was time to go to bed. I woke up the next morning and was ready for the final stretch of driving to get to North Topsail beach.
We arrived at our beach house that we would be staying at for the week and looked around. I said, “The view is so awesome!” My uncle walked over and replied, “wow, it really is!” We unpacked our bags and looked at our rooms. After I put my bags away I walked upstairs and my mom asked me, “are you ready to go to Walmart?” I replied, “yes, can I see if Branden wants to …show more content…
My cousin said, “wow, that’s a big one!” My mom said, “That's huge!” We kept going farther down the beach catching crabs. The next morning, my mom and I went out onto the beach and looked for shells. The morning was the best time because the tide from the previous night brought all the shells up onto the shore. I found an extremely shiny and smooth shell. I showed my mom and she said, “Wow, that is smooth!” I replied, “Yes, I am keeping it!” We continued walking down the beach until we found a jellyfish that washed up on the shore. I looked at it and said, “Wow look, it’s huge!” The jelly fish must have been at least 8 inches in diameter. My mom came to look and said, “Look how clear the body is!” I replied, “You can see its insides!” We continued down the beach to look for more shells.
On the second to last day of vacation my dad and I went to the USS North Carolina battleship. The ship was huge and very interesting. The ship had so many floors and rooms that the sailors lived and worked in. When we got to the kitchen area my dad thought he had heard something and asked, “Did you hear
