Personal Narrative: My Trip To Florida

Improved Essays
When I was eight my grandparents and aunt invited me to go to Florida with them on vacation. They were going to Disney World, Sea World, Busch Gardens, and Universal. I accepted the invitation to go with them because it sounded like it would be fun. So my grandparents picked me up. I told my parents goodbye and loaded up in the car and headed out on my two week vacation. We headed to North Carolina to stay the night at my aunt and cousins house. The next morning we packed up the vans and headed out. Our first stop was Georgia. We drove to Georgia to stay the night there so we wouldn’t have to drive it straight.

I was screaming “ I have a crab in my foot” and every thought I was screaming “ I have a cramp in my foot”. They were all standing there at the edge of the water watching me, laughing at me and telling me to walk it off.

The waves were rough that day so they were making it harder on me to stay balanced on one foot. I finally made it to the edge of the water where my uncle and aunt were standing there waiting on me. When I got there they asked me what was wrong. So I told her what was wrong and then she finally understood it wasn’t a cramp that I had it was a crab. Standing there in tears I held on to my aunt while she held me up and my uncle sat there and tried to pull the crab out of my toe. Fifteen minutes had gone by and he still couldn’t get the crab out. He finally said that he was gonna jerk on it as hard as he could and see if
