When I was in Ecuador I was on a yacht just off of the Galapagos islands. I was sitting on the back of the boat. We had a 5 hour boat ride ahead of us to get to the next island. I was looking out onto the water since we had no service in the middle of the ocean. I looked out to the horizon and took in the breeze and fresh air looking at the waves splashing behind us from the boat. After an hour of sitting I was getting seasick and wanted to throw up. One of the crew members gave me Dramamine to help me feel better. After that I slowly dozed off onto the cushions of the back of the boat. Looking out onto the horizon slowly falling asleep.

I was woken up a few hours later to my dad telling me to come to the top of the boat. When I made my way up to the top he pointed out onto the horizon and told me to look. A couple seconds later a bunch of whales breach the surface of the water and it was one of the coolest things I had seen. I stayed on the top of the boat in awe as I watched the whales swim. A few moments later the whales had left and I was back to relaxing. I was sitting on the top of the boat when I looked into the distance and I saw hundreds of dolphins swimming near and around the boat. I think that was the most interesting and cool thing on top of the whales I had seen in my life.

We arrived at the spot we were going to and we hopped into a smaller boat that was meant for transporting us to specific spots in proximity of the boat. They lowered the little boats from the sides and drove them to the back where we would get on them and go snorkeling. We took a short ride to a cool cave that was in the middle of nowhere. We stopped right outside of the cave and jumped off the small boat slowly swimming into the cave.

As we swam into the cave it got darker and darker. It was super deep down so I couldn't see the bottom of the cave. All of a sudden I see something coming up from the depths of the cave. I started swimming away super fast but then realized it was just a harmless sea lion coming up to play with the group. I still got nervous and left the cave to swim with the other people out there and they were all grouped together so I decided to go see what they were looking at. As I was swimming over I saw a big sea turtle right there and I wanted to get a closer look so I swam down and looked at it. When I went down I noticed that there was a little sea turtle with it too. I thought that it was pretty cool. The water started to feel cold even though I was wearing a wetsuit. When the time was up. We went back into the small boat, took off our gear and rode back to the yacht.

It was 5th grade and I was able to take a trip to Europe with my Dad, Brother, and my babysitter. She came to watch us while my dad did work. My dad left 1 week before all of us since he had a party to go to over there. And then we left with my babysitter 1 week later on a big plane and my favorite part was that we got served dinner. But the dinner was not good at all. Fortunately the food in Italy and Spain would make up for it. When we landed we stayed in an air bnb and it was a nice house. That same day I got to Italy, I found a fruit on a tree and I held it in my hands and a couple minutes later I itched my eye and I got an allergic reaction. My whole eye turned yellow and it was itchy. Later we went to the restaurant whe I had the best pasta I've ever had in my life. It was really good and I want to go back to that restaurant where I had it. The next day we went to a park that was famous for having pigeons. The pigeons would be super friendly and go in your arms and eat the seeds that you would feed them. It was really cool since I had never experienced that before

A couple days later I went to Spain and we spent the rest of the vacation walking around and hanging out at the beaches and relaxing for a week.

It was the 4th of July weekend of 2021. We were going to Florida to meet up with my cousins. The cousins we were meeting up with had a yacht in Florida so we were going to stay there for the weekend. The plane ride felt so short but long since I couldn’t wait to see my cousins and go on the yacht for the first time since they had just got it. We had landed on the first day and they were coming the next day. We met up with some friends out there and we spent the night in a hotel waiting for the next day to come. That first day went by very slowly since I just wanted to leave out to the open ocean and relax and have fun.

After a good night’s sleep we went down to the bottom floor to check out the hotel and we headed out onto the road to the marina. On our way there I was admiring the views of the oceans and the palm trees. I remember that there was a long bridge that went over the ocean that had a lot of traffic. About 10 minutes on that bridge we called our cousins to see if they were there already or if they were running late. They said that they were on the same bridge as us. We ended up finding the car that they were in and it was pretty cool to see them so early.

We arrived shortly after at the marina with our cousins and her friend and packed our bags into a golf cart to be sent off to the yacht. After that we started to walk over to the yacht which was not that far away from the parking lot. We got to the yacht and it was really nice and big. I remember it being about 80 feet. We got onto the boat and met the crew and personal chef they had. Apparently the personal chef was a famous chef and he had done work for celebrity parties on star island. Star Island is an island that has a lot of rich people and celebrities on it.

After we met the crew the boat was fueled up and we were on the sea. I started to get to know my cousin's friend since I had never met her friend before and she was cool. So then me, my cousin and her mostly hung out together since we were around the same age and we had fun. At dinner we had these really delicious tacos and steak and other appetizers. It was very really good also considering he did that all on a boat. After dinner everyone went downstairs and hung out.

After everyone went to bed, me, my cousin, and her friend weren’t tired so we hung out at the top of the boat until 3 am talking and playing games. We did that for the next 3 nights and at the end of the trip I was pretty much sleep deprived. But before the end of the trip we did a lot of things too.

Me and my cousin's friend liked to jump off the yacht into the water since it was fun and it was an adrenaline rush. One time I jumped off, I put on goggles and swam all the way to the bottom of the ocean but it wasn’t that far down. It was only about 15 feet down.

Later we went and saw fireworks which were really cool. On the last day my Uncle took us all shopping and we got expensive clothes and other things too. After that the hurricane that hit over the 4th of July weekend hit us so our flight was delayed. After a long wait in the airport we flew back and I was upset for a week since I missed spending time with my family and friends on the yacht. We got back home and then enjoyed the rest of our summer vacation.
