Recommended: Camping with family experience

When I went to Canada I was going into the 5th grade. I camped on a Yogi Bear site in Niagara Falls. We got to the campsite after a long and boring 9 hour car ride. When we got to the campsite at 10:00 PM my grandparents, brother, and I set up the tent really quick. Then we went to bed because we were very tired. The next morning my brother and I went to the pool. We made friends, some of them were French. Then we got ready for a boat trip on The Maid of the Mist. When we got on the boat, my poncho ripped. So my brother and I switched ponchos, I was dry and he was soaking wet. He was so mad that he is still mad to this day. After that, we walked around Niagara Falls and went to some arcades. I lost most of my prizes within five minutes of

I have now seen several other National Parks on one of the most renowned places on earth for mysterious creations, the Colorado Plateau. Of all the beautiful places on it, even the Grand Canyon, I have found my favorite one. Bryce Canyon National Park. I thought it was amazing, because it was the most diverse to anything I have ever seen before. We hiked down into it and I felt like I was surrounded by skyscrapers. We trekked around a little, but we didn’t

    Have you ever looked off a gigantic cliff? Now imagine traveling 30 miles per hour on a bike with curvy roads with enormous cliffs on your side with no rails. This is exactly what I did with my family when we went to Colorado. From the hotel we drove to a bike tour place to take us to the summit of Pikes Peak. After we arrived at the building we saw pictures of how massive the cliffs were, but what terrified me was the fact they had no side rails. This observation was thrilling as well as terrifying. It was an odd mix of emotions, but I loved the adrenaline rush it gave me. My dad whispered to me, “ This will be absolutely horrifying”.

  • Reading an American Identity in Niagara Falls

    1959 Words  | 4 Pages

    Occupying the centre of a vast array of paintings, postcards, books and plays, Niagara Falls has become a national icon. Since American independence, Niagara Falls has “assumed nationalistic meaning as the search for cultural/national symbols fixed on nature for America’s identity” (Irwin, xiv). Those select few who had the opportunity to view the falls in the eighteenth century pointed to its majestic beauty and transcendental nature as proof of America’s greatness. It was not until the construction of railroads in the middle of the nineteenth century however, that the majority of Americans were able to experience the falls first hand. At this time, the quest to find meaning in this natural wonder came to a climax. Niagara Falls became a battleground on which Americans sought to interpret the message they knew that Mother Nature had left for them to discover. As a result, Niagara Falls came to symbolize the importance of marriage, spirituality, and technological advancement in the construction of an American identity.

We talked nonstop about our new task and betted each other 15 dollars if we did not follow with our plan and sky dive from 35,000 feet in the sky. The 15 hour trip took forever, but we passed the time away by listening to music, texting friends, and sleeping. When we got into Florida, we stopped and ate a small meal at Barnacles, a seafood restaurant. When we got done, we went to our hotel and then toured Tampa Bay.

    One of the most enjoyable things in life are road trips, particularly to the Colorado mountains. Getting to spend time with your family and friends, while being in a beautiful place, is irreplaceable. The fifteen-hour road trip may feel never-ending, but gazing at the mountains from afar makes life’s problems seem a little smaller and causes worries to become a thing of the past.
