Mexico vacation

On November 23, 2016 my friend's whole family and my whole family were getting ready for a relaxing vacation in Mexico, Puerto Vallarta. We all had to wake up at about 8:00 a.m so we wouldn’t be late for our flight. After we all woke up we all got into the cab with all our luggage and drove away to the airport. We landed at about 12:30 p.m, caught a cab and drove right away to check into heaven (our hotel) called Sheraton. In the hotel it was exactly like heaven, with four pools, a nice warm beach, three restaurants, a basketball court, and even a spa. So after we put all our luggage in our three rooms we switched to bathing suits and with no hesitation we ran to the pools. The next day we were mostly all day at the hotel.

We rented a boat and someone to drive it even though we really wanted to self drive it. Then we set sail and all of the kids were on the front of the motor boat feeling the air slice through our bodies. After 20 minutes of sailing we stopped in front of a huge rock that was sliced in half. We stopped where all the motor boats were, put the snorkel gear on, jumped into the water, and started snorkeling in the beautiful sea with all the weird and amazing fish. We saw a school of fish and we even saw a narrow fish, as narrow as a stick. After we snorkeled, we went to the beach in front of where we snorkeled but we didn't stay there for long because then we had to leave. The fourth day was the best day of all the days that we were in Mexico, it was the day we all went ziplining except for my youngest sister Maayan who is 4 years old. After the instructor instructed us on how to zipline, we started ziplining on 14 ziplines! The first two were easy, but the next 12 were really cool. There was even one that was 1700 ft and 150 ft long. After the ziplining we slid on the slide into the cold lake, and there were two slides so we went on both of them. Afterwards we came back to the hotel and played in the pool as

    In the trove of memories that I have from the visits to Florida, one in particular stands out. One day when we visited in June we went to Blue Springs park. It had crystal clear water so you were able to see 40ft to the bottom. After swimming in spring water for a while we rented canoes and went down the river it was connected to. We had enough fun after a couple hours and we were about to finish the day off by jumping off a 5ft ledge into the 40ft deep water.…

    Unknowingly, my grandparents told me we would be staying in a hut in a poor village. Eager to get there, we had to take another long bus ride to get there, then on a boat ride through the jungle for about an hour. Thrilled, we had finally arrived at the beautiful Tortuguero. Tortuguero is on the east coast of Costa Rica, and has many villages of poor people. Then when we docked, exotic dancers brought us drinks, and showed us the way to our hut.…

    This March, my family and I took a trip to Mexico for vacation. We did many fun things down there such as; parasailing, went on a boat for a day trip, sail boating, went swimming in the ocean, buggy board, sand volleyball, swam in the pool, walked the beach at night, got henna tattoos, a dread in our hair and went to the club with my brother and Emerson. The sand on my feet, the crashing of the waves, people swimming in the ocean, the smell of sunscreen and the wonderful taste of my flamingo drink; Mexico is my kind of place to be. But the first day in particular sticks out to me the most, the day we went parasailing and sail boating. Waking up in the morning in your soft hotel comforter, gives you a great feeling.…

    Every time I go to visit my grandparents in Florida we go fishing. We take their little boat out onto the salty sea and sit for a while. One of my best memories was when it was getting late and we were going to start heading home. But I hadn’t caught a fish yet, so I asked “Papa just one more minute”, he laughed and gave me that one more minute. Almost in an instant my bouy went underwater and I reeled in a giant silverfish.…

    Growing up in Mexico, I didn't have the best of everything. I had and still have a hard working family, but as a kid, I would always see my parents struggling to put food on our table for my siblings and myself. To this date, every time I am in contact with my relatives in Mexico they always tell me how much people struggle to provide a living for their families, especially when there is really no place to work or any resources that can help them out with such needs. As of now, life has been treating me well; I have a wonderful wife, an amazing 2 year old son and a baby that is soon to be due and a great job! My motivation to do this mission trip is by putting myself in the shoes of all those people that have to struggle every day and night to…

    It was an early Monday morning, I was pretty happy at the time because this trip was going to get me out of a full week of school. So, it all began at the airport, looking out of the window I could see our plane, It was a bit intimidating and I was really nervous because this was going to be my first time on a plane. Nevertheless, I had nothing to worry about though because soon enough I would come to realize that, the time I would be spending in Puerto Rico would teach me to truly enjoy the great experiences in life. So we were off, I could not wait to begin my adventure in Puerto Rico and meet all the amazing new people.

    I was shocked into the deepness of the water and the colors. After the trip to the beach that morning, (which by the way was just down the street) we took a hard earned rest. I laid on the couch but sleep did not come, or perhaps, I did not let it come. After what felt like an eternity, we finally got ready to go on our first swimming trip to the beach! I was so excited that I was telling my mom to drive faster!…
