My Final Post Ever for Eternity Maybe

My Experience of Planning and Implementing the Family Vacation

I found it hard to plan the vacation. Mainly because of all the steps it takes to complete the planning stage. Like the spread sheet or the map. You have to figure out times, dates, and costs. Then you have to figure out how to get from one place to another without using the GPS. I have to use the regular map.

My Favorite Part

The part were my trip is over. The trip was hard and I missed my vacation time not my work time (Nickelodeon doesn't count). besides I learned what a hard job dad has to plan mini vacations to the beach and stuff. I'm just happy to be relaxing. ;D.

My Least Favorite Part

Right before you leave. I think it's because of the thought that the trip would go horribly wrong. Or we would get lost and I couldn't stand the thought of my trip falling apart. In the end it all worked out I was just so stressed.

The Three Most Important Lessons I Learned

  1. Plan Ahead but Be Flexible With Times
  2. Always Have a Backup Plan
  3. Have Fun
    If you go by these Lessons your trip can be fun.
How The Experience Will Be Helpful To Me In The Future

I think that it will be helpful on other trips I do because I know how to do every thing now. Though you can never expect whats going to happen. So be flexible and have fun, and in case something doesn't go to plan have a backup plan, it helps.

How The Experience Impacted My Family

I think they had fun. We discussed what to do. It was always a group discussion. I had fun not sure about them but I'm sure they enjoyed it.

What I Would Do If I Could Do It All Over Again

Listen I'm only going to say this once. NEVER AGAIN AM I DOING A CROSS COUNTRY TRIP IT TAKES TOO LONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hear me out I thought the trip would take for ever. Its not so bad that I wanted it to be over right?

The Unexpected

A few things that happened that was unexpected. Once we stayed in a cabin when we were supposed to sleep in a tent. We stayed up all night one night. We even skipped Yosemite National Park. Dun Dun DUN Muahahahahahahahaha.

What Went Exactly As Planned

Well everything up to when we met Tracy. Then we got all out of order and mixed up. After San Fran we went totally off schedule.

My Final Thoughts

I thought the trip went better than I thought it would. I made it and now I don't have to worry about it because it's over. =) So bye.

FL

We are in florida. My trip is over and as I write this I relax in my new memories.

THE END (THE END)

Daisy State Park and Diamond Hunting and A Rat



We drove to Daisy State park which was wonderful. i loved it. That was just to stay. We pitched our tent. We went to sleep. We got up I made a spider web with the nature directer. You take a black sheet of construction paper and spray hair spray. Then spray the spider web white and put the black paper behind the web and capture it, after that I went to Murfreesburro, were we went diamond hunting. We didn't find anything except an amethyst. Then I went to their water park. It was so hot it felt really nice. Then we went back cooked dinner and slept. I got up the next morning and I went back to the nature center. I did a nature scavenger hunt. Then the directer gave me a painted rock. We left. We found a hotel and saw Ratatouille. I really liked it. We went to sleep at 1 AM.

The All Night Drive


Today we had a all night drive. Pretty much what it was was we tried finding a place to stay in Denver but they were all full. It was too late to camp. We drove around all night and then we stopped in a parking lot and rested for 2 seconds. Then we watched the sunrise. It was beautiful. Then we had bagels for breakfast. After that we went to the Denver Art Museum, were they make fun of ANIME!!>= p. Then we went to a town in Kansaa that was so small that the hotel we were in we could walk to the restaurant and to the food market.
