Personal Narrative: My Vacation In Yosemite California

This vacation was something to look forward too. I felt this vacation was worth remembering because of the good time my family and I had there. The trees, mountains, terrain, animals were worth remembering as well. This place was ,Yosemite California being here was different because I wasn't surrounded by the racket of the city.

As my family and I drove up that bumpy ,curvy road up the mountain to arrive to our cabin I looked out of the car window and admired the view of the wildlife. My parents and my sister stuck in a car for hours and my godfather and my cousins ahead of us. I just wanted to arrive to our cabin to see my other family who arrived a day before us.

We had such a good time , I really got good at billiard they were all surprised. After that our whole family sat in the living room and watched Moana that moment was also really heart warming because we were all bonding together. The next day we woke up at 6am and drove to another landmark that was a hike but not as bad as the other. There was a waterfall there and my godfather convinced me to climb up to it. My family wasn't happy with us for doing that because it was dangerous. Doing that I learned to try new stuff. When we got to the top we swam in the waterfall and it was really cold because it was melted ice. We walked farther up to Mirror Lake and there we swam and my whole body was stinging because of how cold the water was. Going back home, we stopped at a Market and we ate there and there was lots of tourists. I asked my cousin if we buy marshmallows so we can make smores but he said no because we can't start fires here. When we got home, we played billiards as always and during the game we saw a deer right next to our cabin and we went outside to get a better view.

A favorite memory of mine was going out late at night to the lake and swimming. The atmosphere at night is a lot different than it is at day. In the day it can be quite crowded and sometimes noisy.…

    We got to see stalagmites, stalactites, flowstones, chandeliers and soda straws. We took lots and lots of pictures because if I didn't slow my family, I feel like they wouldn't have believed me. We spent about half our day there, and then after that she took me to the San Antonio Zoo. That zoo was humongous, way bigger than the one in the valley. I saw monkeys, elephants, rhinoceros, lions, zebras, and even penguins.…

    Two thousand five hundred eighty-seven. I could take an eight-hour flight or a casual thirty-seven-hour drive, but no matter what, I am still two thousand five hundred eighty-seven miles away from my home in New Haven, Connecticut. Being a college freshman, trying to juggle class, homework, projects, studying, sleeping, eating, and athletics; finding the travel time to go home is an almost impossible task. Add in the cost of the $600 flights round trip and there is no chance a student can go visit home when they feel a little homesick. I on the other hand had never even fathomed being homesick from the frozen tundra I called home.…

    Today I was looking at some old pictures from my 1993 trip to Death Valley National Park. When I was a kid I hated camping, but now I have fond memories of these trips, which just does to show how time can change our perception of things. We visited Echo Canyon, and camped there for the night. There is a ghost in Echo Canyon, which I photographed at the time. This canyon is true to its name-sake as you can shout and your voice will carry on the wind for miles and bounce back off the mountains in the distance.…
