After what seemed like hours we had gathered up all of the must-have trinkets and clothing and were headed back to our area to return to our hotel when we saw a little stand with mini cages on it. Curious‚ we made our way over to discover dozens of baby turtles

My trip started out alright flying into the lush tropical island‚ seeing the shimmering waves winking at me during the airplanes descent.

As my mom says "treat others the way you want to be treated"‚ I keep those words in the deepest part of my heart and remind myself to have good manners all the time to everyone that I meet in my life. For example‚ I show my respect to my elders by always offering help by any means possible‚ always saying ‘please’‚ ‘thank you’ whenever it is needed.
