Traveling is something you have to do in order to get to your destination. Wherever you are going, whether it be Florida, California, New York or wherever, you have to either get in the car or get on a plane to get to the place you want to go. If you are taking a plane, it is not so bad, because I enjoy traveling via an airplane, but if you are traveling in a car for say over ten hours, well that is not so enjoyable.
When I was in eighth grade, our family took a vacation to St. Petersburg, Florida. We were all excited to go, because we had not been to Florida for a few years, and we were excited to get out of the cold weather and into the warm weather. Unfortunately, we had to travel in the car for sixteen hours or so, with three sister and two parents. It got very cramped inside the car, because we had our luggage, and people need space. So as we took off, we were very excited because we felt Florida was so close, but yet it was going to seem like forever until we got there. So as we took off, we were making plans, what was the first thing we were going to do, are we going to the beach or pool first? About an hour into the trip, we began asking the question, are we almost there yet? The same answer for the next twelve hours, was no. We began to get very tired, cramped, and angry at each other, because we were so tired of the being in the car, and we just wanted to be on the beach. We finally got to Florida and we were all excited and it felt good to stretch your legs. Traveling is not fun. You get so excited about where you are going, that you forget that you have a long time until you get there.
