My Italian Vacation
My Italian Vacation
It was a long climb, probably the longest climb I have ever attempted, When I reached the top I felt that I would collapse any minute. My legs were numb, my clothes were all wet out of sweat and I was completely breathless. Even though I felt completely exhausted, the climb was well worth it. What I saw up there was a memorable and probably the most spectacular view I have ever seen. The wind blew at its strongest at the very top, pigeons were all over the place, and the Sun felt as if it's concentrating its light only at this very top. The view was the best part of it all, looking down at Rome from the very top of St. Peter's Basilica was and always will be a memory that I will never forget. It was this exact event that made me think to myself that I was glad to have come for this remarkable Italian adventure and I would never cease to forget such a wonderful vacation.

It all started out when my father had a call from his boss that he had to travel abroad to Italy to finish some work that the company assigned him to do. My father decided that he would take the whole family with him to see and feel the European life that Italy had in store. I wasn't hyped about it at first, I thought it would be a disaster, I felt that we wouldn't fit in. In the end I was convinced that it would be a nice change to visit and explore the very first European city that I would go for a trip to. When we arrived at the airport and were going to board the plane, I was surprised that there were tourists from everywhere around the world! Tourists which vary from the far Eastern-asian continent to the the very western part of africa. The airplane was striped Red and White and was spectacularly big. The inside was very advanced too, almost every seat had a television linked to it to watch movies! I was glad then that I would be occupied throughout the whole flight and not sleep out of boredom.

The flight was 6 very long hours, I had already watched 3 movies by

    One warm summer day my family was frantically rushing to gather all our belongings for a week long adventure out west. We were trying our best to squeeze every item in the car; finally we were ready to depart from home. I was just fourteen years of age at the time and had never been more than a few states away. The ride there was beyond exciting, but extra long. I believe most of that was due to the anticipation of when we would finally reach the great state of Colorado.…

    “Alright but I think I can try to figure it out” I replied. The rest of the flight was long and monotonous, and I could not fall asleep because I was too excited. We arrived in Milan after a six hour flight and right from that flight we had to board another smaller plane to go to the airport near my Grandparents home town. This flight only took two hours but it was still terrible. We arrived at the second airport and we had my uncle waiting for us with his tiny car. We stuffed all of our luggage into the car and we made our way to Acri. While we were in the car he was speaking to my mom and grandparents and I could not understand anything he said, it was like trying to put a puzzle together without any of the pieces. We had made it, I was ready to start my vacation but I was hungry and jet lagged. So we went out for some pizza and gelato and we went back and…

    My Trip to India

    • 1816 Words

    As we boarded the plane the Lufthansa flight I was struck with the hard to miss smell of an airplane which, surprisingly, as a kid I thoroughly enjoyed. The first leg of the trip was to Frankfurt, Germany, and then we connected to a flight to Madras, India, the latter plane flight taking thirteen of the twenty-four hours of flying. As we prepared for landing I felt like I had traveled to the other side of the world, and I truly did figuratively and literally. Nearly the second my foot stopped out of the plane into to the gate I was suffocating. The temperature had to be at least 100 degrees Fahrenheit, and what made it worse was the humidity. I literally had sweated off a pound by the time we reached the excruciatingly long immigration and customs line. This line was so crowded that it would probably be more fitting to refer to it as an enormous glob of people rather than a line. What made it frightening was that my brother and I nearly lost sight of my parents numerous times.…

    First flight of my life

    I couldn't forget the day when I got a chance to travel by plane for the first time. I was in grade five and I was 10 years old. Unfortunately, I had to travel alone because my parents didn't get a leave from their office. I was flying from my hometown of Kathmandu to Pokhara. Although, that was a domestic flight I was so excited while travelling to my maternal uncle's house. The plane was shaking abnormally at the time of take off. I was so scared, for a while I thought that I made a wrong decision to travel by plane and would had been much better, if I had travelled by any road vehicle rather than by plane. I had a negative thought at that time because I thought that something was going wrong with that plane . After reaching above the ground level, I felt safe and my heart started beating normally. I got a chance to see my eye pleasing beauty of nature and really enjoyed the scenery outside. After flying around one and half hours plane landed at Pokhara domestic airport. My maternal uncle and his whole family were there to welcome me. I made a call and informed my parents that I arrived safely. That day was one of the most memorable and pleasurable day of my life because I got a chance to fly and meet my maternal uncle and his family after several years. Nowadays, while travelling by plane I still remember my first flight experience and brings a smile to my face .…

    My Weekend Vacation

    Over the weekend I went to universal studio with my little brother, friends and their three kids. We all got in the van and drove five hours to Los Angeles. And with four kids all under the age of ten is not easy. We had to play Disney music the whole ride there so the two year old wouldn’t cry. And all we can hear is “let it go” from the back seat all the way there. When we got there we had so much fun. We went on all the rides, the kids loved transformers and the minions, and mine was the mummy and Jurassic park rides, then we went on the tour and saw where all the movies were shot at. And part of the tour we got chased by one of the character with a knife. And we went on a 3-D ride for part of the tour, and saw Godzilla and some dinosaurs. My little brother didn’t like that part, he cried, but after the tour he was fine. It coasted me my whole check but it was worth it to spend time with my little brother. I don’t get to see him a lot, due to work, so I decided to take him on this vacation. The ticket alone was $176, the food cost us $190 a day, each game cost $20, and souvenirs cost us $150. After universal studio we went to Hollywood walk of fame. We saw our favorite celebrities’ stars like Michal Jackson, Robin Williams, Walt Disney, Shirley Temple, and Mickey Mouse the kids love see that and learning more about them. We also saw some people dressed up as super heroes the kids were confused of the four spiders man, two super man, and the batman. All my friends and I can do was laugh at their faces. We had to explain to them how their not the real hero’s just people dressed up like them. The only problem was that the super heroes wanted ten dollars a picture, what a rip off. Then we went to the Hollywood sign where we took some really funny photo that looks like the kid are holding up the sign. Then we went to the…

    It was a girl trip, only me and my mum. We had to take the coast bus to Haugesund very early at the morning. We arrived Haugesund airport and took the plain to Stansted airport in London. I was very excited and had huge expectations because I had heard a lot positive about London before. When we took the bus from the airport to the hotel, I looked at the places we drove true. The houses were different from norway, a lot of them were made of brick. I could see already that london was a lot bigger than Stavanger. We came to a hotel, called Picadilly hotel or something, because the hotel was in a place called Picadilly sircus. Me and my mum were both tiard after the trip, so we decided to relax a bit this first evening. We took the sightseeing bus and looked at all the nice buildings, and for me who is interessted in culture (buildings, nature and so on) this was awsome. The bus trip lasted for about one hour. In the beginning of the trip it was light and we saw everything perfectly clear, we saw big ben, buckingham palace, and a lot of other increadable buildings. After some minutes it became a bit dark, and it was so nice to be on the sightseen bus, it was beautiful. A lot of light from all the buildings and bridges and so on. It was really an amazing journey just to sit on that bus.…

    Italy Dream Vacation

    • 435 Words

    Italy is a land of rich and decadent foods, colorful citizens who live and love with passion and my dream vacation destination. I have dreamt of taking my large Italian family to Italy to walk the same roads as our ancestors since I was a young girl. Now is a time when I am able to splurge and bring my dream to fruition. The cost of taking my family to Italy will be quite exorbitant in monetary terms; the airfare alone is enough to make my piggy bank squeal in protest. My family thinks that a trip to Italy is too expensive and that I should not spend my money on something so extravagant. However, I do not feel one can put a price tag on the experience of exploring the country of my ancestors with my family.…
