If finances and family considerations were not an issue I would spend my entire summer different from what I do now. Ever since I turned sixteen and was able to have a job, I've always worked my summer away. It would only be a miracle that I would get my summer off to where I can really enjoy myself. The first thing I would do is take a huge road trip with some friends. I don't really care where we go or end up it will just be the experience that counts. We will look up some of the most random, hardly known, monuments. Then I would go on a weeklong camping trip. I love being outside and being at the lake. I would go with either friends or family; it does not really matter much to me just as long as we can have fun. I'd go swimming every day in creeks, lakes, maybe even a pool here or there. Though many people would talk of going to the ocean or the beach but I am not much into that sort of thing. I have a bit of a fear of sharks, and jelly-fish, and stingrays...even whales, but that's okay, because this girl will not go anywhere where she will be in the air or in the middle of the ocean. No. Thank. You. Although there is one place I have always wanted to go and I would possibly consider going there on this fantasy summer. New Orleans, Louisiana. I have always wanted to go there for three reasons. First reason being, I've always wanted to experience Marti Gras first hand with all the floats and parades and wonderfulness. Second reason would be because I really want to see an alligator. I think it would be awesome to be driving around and be able to say, "Hey look, an alligator." all nonchalant like. And my final reason would be because I love how the people talk. It really fascinates me. For some people they like those British accents but not me, a like the southern accents. Every day of my summer I’ll be outside, being free, and enjoying life.

Fantasy Summer

This sounds like it would be super fun. I have always loved the outdoors. I don't think there has been one summer that my family hasn't went camping for about a week if not longer. I to have always wanted to go to New Orleans. Whats weird is I have almost the exact same reasons. :) I have been to Florida and they have alligators there kind of like you talk about they would be in Louisiana. Great blog. :)
ReplyDeleteMickenzie, your vacation sounds like a pretty fun one. Like you, I also enjoy southern accents, though I tend to lean a little more towards Alabama than Louisiana. It surprises me that sharks and jellyfish and ocean creatures scare you, but you're fine walking around with gaters. I dunno, something about that just seems odd ;)Anyway, don't work too hard this summer!
