My Favourite Holiday Destination

I have been to several places around the world, Mumbai and Goa in India, Paris in France, Hamburg in Germany, Rome and Venice in Italy, Vatican City, Singapore, Hong Kong, Melbourne and Sydney in Australia but my personal favourite is the Brisbane-Gold Coast trip which also happens to be in Australia. I liked it very much since Gold Coast had 2 huge theme parks and an amazing water park.

It was the 16th of December we were on our way to Dubai International Airport to board our 8 o’clock morning flight which was due to land at 6 o’clock the next morning in Brisbane, Australia. It was a 16 hour long journey! At Brisbane airport we were picked up by my aunt and we went to her house where we were to stay. The next day the 18th of December we had breakfast and my cousin took me for a long bike ride round the neighbourhood. It was a pretty big neighbourhood and it took us nearly an hour to complete. When we reached back home we were really exhausted so we relaxed and had lunch and took a nap to rest it out and to wind up the day we visited a nearby mall which was crowded as Christmas was round the corner.

19th and 20th just flew by; we left for Gold Coast on 21st evening 5:30 and reached our relatives house by 7:00 and that was were we were going to stay for the next week. We unpacked our bags and went out for dinner. The next day we woke up early and went to Warner Bros. Movie World.

When we reached Movie World we bought our tickets and went in; the first ride that caught my eye was the Batwing Spaceshot it’s a 60 metre tall tower surrounded by seats and it shoots you up at 100km/h and then drops you at 75km/h I gave it an extreme rating on the thrill meter. Sorry, I forgot to tell you about the thrill meter, you see I love the rush of adrenaline and so I class every ride I go on into three groups, extreme for rides that set your adrenaline pumping, moderate for the rides that don’t quite live up to the extreme mark and chilled for

    On one chilly night in Las Vegas, my brother and I had just landed and got off our plane to see our dad. I remember walking off the plane and back into the airport terminal and hearing the soft and sweet sounds of christmas carollers surround me. Their voices seemed to follow us as we walked back to the parking garage to head home. It was a short distance but a long drive due to the hectic city traffic. I don’t remember much of the drive because I had slept most of the way home. Finally, we arrived at the house and we greeted the rest of our family.…

    December 19th was the day we left Detroit to head to my aunt's house in Orlando Florida for Christmas. But before we got to Florida we made a couple pit stops on the way. The first stop was wildlife in need in Indiana. That was my birthday gift for my parents. We had tickets for the baby tiger playtime. Which was my favorite thing I've ever done. After that we headed to Nashville Tennessee which ended up being our next stop. We stayed at the Hampton inn in downtown Nashville.

Instead of take the Georgia route we took the Alabama route because none of us has ever been to Alabama. I haven't…

    The children of Puerto Rico inspired me to achieve mine goals in life. I know that sounds confusing since I am not of Hispanic decent, so let me explain. The summer of sophomore year, I traveled on a mission trip to Puerto Rico with my school. I visioned the trip as a paradise vacation. However, I was wrong. Though I encountered many experiences, there is one that I will never forget. After long hours of working in the community, we ended the day by visiting a boys’ orphanage for mentally and physically disabled. Upon arrival, the kids were lined up at the gate waving and smiling at us ready to give us hugs even though they did not know us at all. While at the orphanage, a man outside was selling cakes and we decided to buy some for the boys.…

    It was a beautiful, sunny day out, and I woke up only to figure out I had to clean. My chores were assigned and I got stuck with the bathroom, mopping, and dishes. Our cousins whom I adore were coming to visit us from Arkansas. Although I didn’t know it at the time. We see them once a year at Thanksgiving, so this was a big deal. Our parents told us some of our friends from where we use to live were coming to visit us. I finished my bedroom which only needed to be tidied up a little, and I sat in my room for 3 and a half hours reading. I finished reading Anne of Ingleside that was in a wonderful series called Anne of Green Gables. A car started pulling up our half a mile driveway, and I ran down to meet them. It was our cousins. It was a surprise had absolutely, so we had no idea when they were going arrive. They would have had to leave at 3 in the morning by the time they got…

    Two years ago I was lucky to get many gift cards, money, and a new wallet from friends and family for Christmas. My siblings didn’t get as much so they were a little jealous and I made the mistake of bragging to them. A few days after Christmas, I went to a friend’s house for the day and my mom and my two little sisters, three and eight at the time, went grocery shopping. My dad and two brothers, six and thirteen at the time, went to a sledding activity at our church.…
