My trip to California
My trip to California to see my older sister and her husband renew their vows was the best trip I’ve ever had. Me and my two little sisters and our dad went to Atlanta Georgia to catch a plane. We had to leave our house at 4:00a.m.When we got to Atlanta we had to stop at my stepmother’s brother’s house to pick him up so we wouldn’t have to leave the car at the airport for the time we were going to be gone. When we arrived at the airport it seemed like there were millions of people there walking and even some running. Before we got ready to get on the airport train we stopped and got something to eat, and the breakfast tasted pretty good for it not to be my mom’s cooking.
When we got off of the mini train we were on our way to get on the plane. But before we got that far we had to go through a lot of metal detectors. I could see our suit case going through the line following behind the others. We got our stuff, and on the plane we went. I must admit I was kind of scared I had never been on a plane before. The seats were three in a row and narrow. Once everybody got everything settled and seated the plane was ready for take off. When the plane picked up speed to lift us up in the air one of my little sisters looked like she seen a ghost and started crying. Me on the other hand had a smile so big it went from ear to ear.
While we were on our five hour trip the waitresses were dressed up in their navy blue skirts and pants with a light blue shirt button down the middle passing out drinks and snacks. Me and some of the passengers were watching a movie and the others were either asleep or going back and forward to the restroom. I was scared to get out my seat but I had to use the restroom, so I got up and went anyway. When I got in there it was small, and as soon as I locked my door the bell came on in the plane for everybody to be seated and buckled up. The plane started rocking a little bit so; I rushed back to my seat.
When I got back to my seat my little sister had let the screen up to look out the window. When I looked out the window it looked like we were floating on top of the clouds -- it was so beautiful. When it was almost time for us to land we could see the car on the ground they looked like little ants moving trough traffic. Once we landed it was a big thump. We got all our stuff and walked off the plane into the airport. We were in Orange County, California but my sister stayed in Corona. So when we got to the airport we had to go and rent a car. The car we rented was a red four door Pontiac it was just enough room four the five of us to ride.
Once we got into the car and was ready to ride, the sites of California was very beautiful the trees were like palm trees just like the ones in Miami Florida. When we got to my sister house she was shocked to see us because she wasn’t expecting us to come. She ran and jumped on our dad and gave all of us big hugs. Her husband had set it up for us to come that’s how my dad knew where he was going. The houses up there are so close together. They don’t have a full yard, instead they have a back and a front yard.
After we sat and chatted with them we left to go and get a room at a hotel. The room was so pretty, and it felt like we were at home. We had sofas, beds, and a refrigerator. The next day we went back to my sister’s house to figure out what we had to do for the renewal of their vows. After we found out, my older sister, my nephew, and I took a trip to Inglewood, Los Angeles, three hours away from where she stayed, to go and see her mom whom I hadn’t seen for a long time. When we got there, she introduced me to her sister who is the same age as me. She was skinny, with long straight hair, and she wore a blue T-shirt with her picture on it. We hung out a little bit before I left and went back to the hotel with my dad and sisters.
The next day was the big day -- my sister wore a beautiful white sparkly dress that hung down to her ankles so her glass slippers could show. Her husband had on his black tuxedo with his shiny white shoes. After the ceremony and everyone had eaten, it was time for the cake. The cake was three layers with strawberries in the middle. That was the best tasting cake I ever had. Although I wished we could of stayed a little longer I had fun and I hope to go back this summer. That’s why this trip to California was the best trip I’ve ever had.
