summer vacation

Every summer we planned to go on a trip but it would always backfire. So this summer we finally made the arrangements to leave in July and we stay two weeks there. This summer i went to Pensacola, Florida with my dad, stepmom, and brothers. I really enjoyed this trip because we spent quality time with each other. We have family up there, so once we arrived I crashed. It was a very long and uncomfortable ride. First few days I really did nothing, just killing time by sleeping or eating and watching movies with my family.The next day I decided to go out and visit a famous theme park with a gorgeous beach attached. There was a ride called the lazy river where you just relax on a floaty and  the current drags you in a circle. We were at the park for 8 hours and still didn't get to ride all the rides.  My uncle was in the army so we got to go on the base, and visit all the stores and different stuff that was located there. It was a store called Army Up. This store was filled with jet skis, a gun range, passes to theme parks, and boats. This was a very famous store on the base because you got to rent the things for only 10 bucks an hour. It was my first time riding on a jet ski. I really enjoyed it, even though I didn’t get the hang of it till an hour later.
The following day was my birthday. We traveled another 2 hours to go to Destin, Florida. There were all the good eating spots and great places to celebrate. We visited a beach that is famous for weddings. We rented bikes so that we could just ride along the sidewalk and see everything instead of driving. I really regret doing that because it was very hot and people could not drive. We only had two days left to be in Florida and my family and I arranged activities to do around the house for the mean time. Within those two days we visited 2 more beaches and one more theme park. We actually finished this theme park, it was so fun, the rides were better and the food was great. Out of all my family vacation i have to say that this was the best one, even though it was my last school vacation with my family I cherished every moment of it.
